Release Notes: July 1st, 2016

Features

  • We now support guide translations in French and German! We'll be adding the ability to translate guides into more languages soon. You can see a few guides people have already translated here!
  • In order to reduce confusion when creating new guides and wiki pages, we now have a language indicator on all document creation pages to clarify which language the document will be created in.

  • We’ve added the ability view guide embed images at full width by clicking or tapping on the image.
  • We redesigned the New Guides Manage page to improve usability.
  • We added several new features to the guide translation interface including: buttons to copy text from the original guide’s introduction and details information over to the translation, step navigation buttons, and additional keyboard shortcuts.

  • We’ve added a new translations page for the sites that support public translations. This page shows the 10 most popular guides and the 10 most popular wikis that are still in need of a translation into the viewer’s selected language.
  • We’ve added the ability to support 1080p video resolution! Because of this, we also created the option to switch the resolution when viewing videos.

  • We’ve updated the navigation bar on guides to make editing and translating more intuitive. When viewing a guide written in a different language the 'edit' tab now links to the translation interface.
  • We’ve redesigned the appearance of guide flags.

Bugs

  • We fixed various alignment issues on the Student Team sign up page.
  • We fixed a bug where the Founding Father badge and the Kickstarter badge had the same earning criteria. We adjusted it so the Founding Father badge now requires 10,000 guide views.
  • We fixed several bugs that prevented the viewing of guides that were flagged as “prerequisite-only”.
  • Instead of breaking the page, trying to add a nonexistent video to a Wiki or Answer will now show a helpful error message.
  • We fixed a bug that prevented videos from displaying on product pages when viewed from mobile devices.
  • We fixed a bug that caused a user’s reputation tab to break if that user had written stories.

I would like to say that the new look is better but the video can't be viewed in full screen mode for what I know for a mobile, don't know about PCs.
