New Features

It’s been a while since we’ve added features to Testament so this past weekend, Andrew and I had a hack day to add functionality suggested by books to prisoners projects using Testament.  We’re pleased to announce these new features:

  • Adding, removing and editing a package’s books after a package record has been created.
  • Deleting package records
  • Showing a prison record’s notes when viewing a record

We also fixed the weekly package report so it should now report your group’s weekly activity.

If you encounter any problems with these features or anything else in Testament e-mail testament_supportatboxcarbooksdotorg or post an issue on Testament’s help page.

Read on for more information and screenshots/screencasts of these new features.

Adding, removing and editing a package’s books after a package record has been created

Watch a screencast of how this new feature works:

Deleting package records

A package record’s page now has a new Delete this record link.  Clicking the link will permanently delete  a package record.

Delete this record

Showing a prison record’s notes when viewing a record

For reason’s I still can’t figure out, a prison record’s notes field, which many groups used to provide additional detailed information about restrictions, was only shown when editing a prison record.  Now the notes are visible when you view the prison record.
