Paul Swartz’s PCF Devblog

This last week was less productive than I would have liked. I’ve been fighting off a cold, for the most part unsuccessfully. However, I have managed to get some work done on the Guide. (Features may not be on https://www.miroguide.com/ yet, but they will be soon)

• Supermoderators can now send e-mails to the owners of featured channels through the guide
• Statistics for channel owners: on the channels by user page, each channel has some simple statistics on how many people have subscribed today/this month and what rank that channel is at.
• Fixed a bug with the rating stars flashing the non-jQuery version, and a bug on Safari where the stars would be all yellow even without a rating

This week, I’ll be working on:

• Queuing for newly approved channels, so that they don’t appear in the guide all at once
• A system for displaying notifications at the top of the page, like the message that are currently there for announcing ratings and reminding users to approve their accounts
• Some small frontend speedups (enabling gzip compression, CSS sprites)
• The big feature: recommendations based on ratings.
