Add to that, any changes that are not released to anyone but staff, would have to be completely filtered out too

And as mentioned, it would likely cause confusion, when something could be posted that isn't available to everyone. Maybe the site could use some AI to generate something that could be spot checked to make sure nothing private was posted and less clear updates wouldn't get posted (or non-user facing ones). Still would take staff time/effort that would likely be better spent on other things

@Spacebux, there are some change logs created for the apps. For the other things, there certainly are logs of changes, in places, but there are a lot of updates, and parsing them for user facing updates, and categorizing them in a understandable way, that would be of use to regular members, would be time consuming. As mentioned, not all changes go live to all members at the same time, and some things may never go live to everyone, so by necessity, it wouldn't be complete

Have just found am unable to delete messages - on trying to delete one which was there yesterday, and a new one today, received a red label "resource not found", but the messages will not disappear

@Spacebux is making the same point I have been making for a very long time. Almost every week the "developers" add a new wrinkle, and even experienced users (who come on here to play chess and organise it for others) have to spend precious time diverted to learning what they have done and how usual practice has been compromised. That is without the bugs being caused by new tech in a ripple effect

I'm sure the Dev Team has a 'change log', internally. Just task SOMEONE with the job of bullet-pointing those changes as they are committed (preferably before committing, but given this site's history, I have many doubts about that) -- to a public log forum / menu-place.

Every other program / game site I have ever seen does this. I could post about other chess sites, but that is banned here.

The number of different updates, levels of updates, and updates on different clients at different times, would take a lot of time to manage well.

@anime-fanboy -- I could write something up, but it would take me 2+ days, and the end code would look like crap.

@Martin_Stahl -- the new graphic, the overlap of point history, ... its a mess. Again, presenting the Chess.com Users with a consistent, documented update page / forum is NOT HARD TO DO.

Something like that is probably not extremely useful for most people, could be confusing, and likely would take a lot of care and feeding to keep up to date

Regarding some kind of update log, there's things being updated all the time. Some minor, some major, some that is released partially , and sine that hits different clients at different times.

The Puzzle Points feature had a visual update and default start screen, but I'm not aware of any major issues there

Do you think you could do it for them?

This should not be so hard to do. My daughter's about to graduate with an IT degree, she could write it up in 4 minutes.

Feedback: PLEASE begin publishing ALL new modifications to a singe repository.. E.g., Chess.com (♟) --> About || Releases --> Current Version || Latest Modification --> Explanation of latest changes. Keep it simple, like this: https://rephial.org/release

Strike that.. you mucked up _both_ the App and the Browser with additional fungus in Puzzle maelstrom. No idea what or why you guys did what you did.
