I've just finished updating the website and have added a number of new features.

• Profile location
  
• Build page - Cyclekart Build Status
  
• Groups - Updated forum functionality
  

The first item has already been posted about but I'll include it again here for anyone who missed it.

Profile location

More granularity has been added to the location fields in your user profile. Previously we only recorded the State, which made it difficult for Group admins to determine where members were located. It also made it difficult to search for other members in your locality.

Location has now been expanded to include Country + State + City.

You can view a users location by viewing the 'About' section of their profile, or search for users by location using the advance search feature.

You can also click the location details on a users profile and view other users that share the same Country, State or City. This will bring up a list of all users that share the same details.


Build page - Cyclekart Build Status

Another requested feature was a way to determine what status someones Cyclekart build was at. This has been added to the build page in the form of a drop down list that can be set by editing your profile.

As with the profile location you can also click through to view a list of the users that share the same build status.


Groups - Updated forum functionality

A fairly major change has been an update of the Group Forums. Previously these were a bit clunky to use and the posts were not easy to create. The Groups forums have now been updated to use the same interface style as the main forums. The same editor is now used making it much easier to create content.

Post notifications have also been improved and all posts are now posted to the streams on both the Group and main website Feed as well as reported by email.

Hopefully this should make the forums much more useable.

It is worth noting that Group forum posts only appear in the Group in which they are posted and are not shown on the main forum page.
