User blog:Dopp/Technical Update: April 26, 2011

Here are the latest technical updates at Wikia. Keep in mind that our system updates happen every Wednesday, so we’re posting this on a Tuesday to give you advance notice. Also note that we change hundreds of tiny details every week, so these are just the highlights.

Major Bugs Fixed

 * We experienced some major caching glitches that prevented the Edit window from loading properly for some users.
 * Some of the buttons in the Gallery builder were improperly aligned.

Other Notable Changes

 * Starting soon, staff members will no longer receive badges for edits made on wikis unless they also have admin status.
 * We're making some changes to the layout around the edit button at the top of article pages, as is described in our last post.
 * We're moving the "Log Out" link into the dropdown menu under your username at the top-right of every page.
 * We're making some great progress on a new metrics tool that will give admins better access to traffic stats about their wiki. More updates on this coming soon!
