Loomio 2.0 beta release

Robert Guthrie PublicSeen by 121

Hello friends and supporters of Loomio!

I'm really pleased to say that we're at a stage of development of Loomio 2.0 that public beta testing would be helpful.

There's another month or 2 of development to go before we're ready to make a general release, however it's good enough to be used regularly by people prepared to report bugs when they happen, and those just wanting to take a peek.

If you'd like to try Loomio 2.0 (and to turn it off again) use this link:

I seem to usually have to manually click 'Latest' to get down to the bottom of threads the last few days, rather than jumping there immediately when there's unread content.

I see quite a few big grey boxes with numbers in them as I scroll around threads

Yah, I'm hesitant to implement "Jump to unread" as before as it felt so janky. I'm undecided between a banner (like the one that is still to come for active proposals) which offers to take you there, and just jumping you there.

Just checking this out now, won't have a chance to utilise properly until September for looking like a big improvement feature wise. Congrats on the work so far!

@jdaviescoates here's the updated link for Beta; great to see you at STIR!

@Robert Guthrie can you please include some instructions in the Context Box of this thread for turning off the beta and going back to the Loomio 1.0 UI?

FYI when I click the link currently in the context box it takes me to a (sub) group called "Loomio 2.0 beta release"

Would it be useful to have a subgroup for reporting issues on Design/Layout? I have for example some font and colour remarks. Thanks for pointing me to the right thread.

It appears that Grammarly locks up when working with Loomio 2.0

Hi Clara, this thread is where I'm collecting and processing bug reports.

It's quite big - however we'll be using the new move comments feature (should be ready today) to move all the processed bug reports to another thread.
