We are building features for the Women Who Code community and we want to highlight that work with our stakeholders, you! THANK YOU to our contributors for dedicating their valuable time to help us build tech a place where women can excel.

You can follow all of our work on github. Below are a few snippets of our awesome features.

Released

This week, the WWCode Core Team has been hard at work, updating the Network pages and Job Board, adding new WWCode HQ members to the About page, and fixing a couple of small glitches that were effecting individual Networks.

Added

Link jobs with new address data
This update allows job board posters to add multiple addresses to a job and styles it so that only the city and state appear on the user’s side of the page.

Introduce Networks::City
This adds a new class: “City”, which allows for better categorization and organization of Network pages.

Additional Admin Roles
The following roles have been created for users interacting with the website in various ways. User, Lead, Fellow, Admin, Superadmin.

Changed

Update About page
The About Page was updated to include the newest members of WWCode HQ: Bourgogne Kinlaw, Partnerships Manager, and Eric Tarplin, Partnerships Success Manager.

Fixed

NetworkLeaders must pre-set Profile
This sets it so that when assigning Network Leaders, they either have to have an already existing profile that is a member of that Network, or a new Leader account must be created.

Network is specified in fetch with retriever
We had to implement a hotfix for an issue we were having with Meetup not being able to retrieve nightly tasks. The following rake tasks now run without error.
rake meetup:warm_events_cache[upcoming]
rake meetup:warm_events_cache[cancelled]
rake meetup:warm_groups_cache
rake meetup:upcoming_deleted_meetup_events

Applauds!
