Release Notes – 2021.05.13

 May 13, 2021

Highlights

  • Purchase Paths
    The main focus this cycle has been on various purchase paths (Direct Signup, Activate, and Add MLS). Broadly, we've made progress on...
    • Finding duplicate code and consolidating it.
    • Making the UI more consistent between paths.
    • Close notes screens are included now in Upgrade and Add MLS paths where they were previously missing.
    • WMCs can now select the number of child websites (agent links) during Upgrade.
    • The "Add MLS" step has been fixed/redesigned.
  • Performance Work In Progress
    With the Web Core Vitals changes coming soon to Google, we've also been focused on performance. Work in progress includes:
    • We've trimmed down some extra javascript that we didn't need, and/or figured out ways to bundle it differently so that it loads faster or on demand. We've addressed the "low-hanging" fruit here. Additional items along these lines will take progressively more dev time, so we've been turning our focus to the server side.
    • We're updating our web servers for elite to use PHP7 instead of 5.6. This newer version has many performance enhancements under the hood and should make our web servers php code run marginally faster.
    • After that has been properly tested and implemented, we'll install PHP profiling tools to further analyze our code and address bottlenecks.
    • Working on a way to serve our website images as WebP format, which reduces file sizes.
