Changelog

What’s shipped on Path, as it ships.

  1. 17 October 2026

    • FixedFeedback reports no longer include personal or technical details, only a reference ID and category.
    • ImprovedAdded a Cancel button to Quick capture that confirms before discarding unsaved changes, and fixed a dark-mode contrast issue on the capture screen's drop-zone hint text.
    • ImprovedThe portfolio export now covers the whole account, including goals, milestones, case studies, cycles, captures with photos, attachments and linked content, with a README listing what is and isn't included, and feedback text from assessors is deliberately excluded.
    • FixedFixed the outdated-bookmarklet notice on the capture page, which never appeared, and made it a more prominent callout with guidance on updating.
  2. 16 October 2026

    • ImprovedPath no longer records which days you use it. The return-rate figures on the admin and organisation dashboards have been removed, and the records kept since 3 September have been deleted.
    • ImprovedTwo-factor authentication is now enforced for all accounts, and 'keep me signed in' extends trust for a limited period while still periodically requiring a code.

    • ImprovedDeleting an account now also removes the associated email address from related records.
    • FixedFramework slugs are now guaranteed to be unique.
    • FixedUpdated the inbox copy to list all six Convert to options, including claim and case study, which were previously missing.
    • FixedError messages from forms across the app now reach you in full; in production some were being replaced with a generic error.
    • FixedFixed several usability issues: the startup tip no longer appears over the welcome tour, new claim/CPD/reflection editors no longer create duplicate entries on first save, selected criterion and linked-CPD chips no longer truncate, HCPC exports correctly fold linked activities into claims, and whole-path exports no longer repeat the pathway name.
    • ImprovedOrganisation admin, framework editor and reviewer workflows now show clear error messages instead of generic failures when something goes wrong.
    • FixedFixed saving a blog post so that changing its publish date now actually updates the stored date and displays correctly in local time.
