Release 10.4 - Key Features

I have a policy of not simultaneously changing the underlying guts of ScoutsTracker at the same time that I introduce new features or change the UI, as it can make troubleshooting users' problems much more difficult.

Consequently this is just an architectural and database schema change, for the purposes of preparing for some expanded Canadian Path support. But otherwise almost everything should work exactly as it did before, with few exceptions described below.

But because this is a pretty huge change, please email me at support@scoutstracker.ca if you have any issues. I'll do my best to react quickly.

Just like you currently pick your Council and Area from a dropdown list when creating an account, you now also can (and must) pick your Group from a dropdown list.

For existing accounts, I've done as much automatic Group identification as possible, but it's possible that I wasn't able to do a match (e.g., you originally created an account as “3rd Bluesky”, but your Area merged some Groups, and now officially there is only the “11th Bluesky”). If this is the case, you'll be asked to pick your Group when you next connect.

• “Connect via another login” now shows whether non-scouter logins are actually “Parent” or “Scout”
• Updated Vertical Skills 2 and 3 with new requirements
• ADMIN: addNonPayPalPayment: tax calculated incorrectly, section_id should default to -1, taxation was being left blank

• Create new leader, uncheck 'can administer account', and 'contact settings' would disappear
• Update youth contacts when importing from MyScouts
• Signup of leaders without the “manage schedule” permission were creating duplicate records
• CANADIAN PATH: Program areas weren't being propagated as part of subscriptions
• Fixed a typo (missing punctuation/space) in the transfer notification email
• Click on other subscribed event, then “modify” in the top subsection. And you'd get time-of-day fields
• Editing subscribed events can sometimes show an empty list for “Plan”
• COMMISSIONERS: Toggling “Account” | “Sections” | “Expired Sections” hides the Create new Account button row.

• Deleting a patrol with one member in it gives a warning message with plurals

• COMMISSIONER: could not load list of sections if you had unaccepted email invites
• “Account” | “Collaboration” has double tags on section names when sorted by “Grouping Label”
• COMMISSIONER: setting group's scope to be “All Groups” (i.e., Area account) would change the name of the account to “All Groups” instead of the Area name
