Here are your OLSD-FP updates for the week
With all the new updates coming out, we realized we had left our search button disabled for a little too long, so we made sure to turn it on for any users who would like to use it.
The like and dislike system, while working, was a little bit buggy and a little too ugly for our liking, so we decided to do something about it. We implemented a function that, when a user tries to like an article while not signed in, instead of redirecting them to the login page and taking them away from their article, prompts them to log in during the like process, allowing them to go right back to reading after liking the article. We also added small like and dislike icons so users could see the buttons more clearly and improve accessibility.
We used this week to refine our systems to improve and clean up all our new features. Here's a list of the smaller things we changed and fixed.
