Made the city cards background a radial-gradient instead of linear to brighten up pictures, now the corners aren't as dark 👌
Changed "Track for Free" to "Track your Adventures" in the Default SEO-picture. Thanks @GuillaumeBardet 😍
Fixed a bug with Modals being very short on mobile
Added Skopje, Macedonia
Arrived in Bulgaria... almost didn't tho 😱🤣
OK just woke up, story time. My luggage broke, so struggled with closing it for a few minutes. I finally made it outside the building to put the keys back in a mail box, the taxi was waiting patiently. I made it to the airport and took a flight to Sofia.
Arriving in the most disgusting airport I've ever seen, I'm looking for an ATM. I found one, broken.. Find another on in building next to it, only low amounts accepted, then FINALLY found one to pull out some money.
A free bus to another terminal was waiting, just made it. Went there expecting that to be the bus station, nope. Then I had to book a train. I couldn't see the sign of where the train was stopping next, but made it out at the right stop to change to another train. The issue here is that, I have a total of 20 minutes to get on this train and then find the REAL train to Plovdiv (2 hours away)
I make it out, read the sign, Track 6 to Plovdiv. The cashier said it was showing "wrong" (13:22 instead of 13:20), but that's whatever I thought… What I missed here was that the track number also changed to 1. I make it to Track 6 with 6 minutes to spare, nobody here….
I run down, look at the sign again, TRACK 1?!… Went back to track 6, took my bags and ran to Track 1… of course the train has to be in the end of the whole track. Keep running/walking (Getting REALLY tired), but made it on.
Arrived in Plovdiv, took a taxi to the accommodation. The host wasn't outside waiting as promised. (was just 5 min late). I waited another 30 minutes, nothing. Luckily I found the number that I could call (From my Swedish prepaid card, oof). He came to open hand over the keys, everything working, until the next morning when the internet died (Bill wasn't paid). Had to make another call, got it sorted within an hour…
Aaaaand now I'm here with internet, and laptop set up. Never been this tired and sore in my life.
Fix Prague-picture, lower the saturation a bit
Packed my bags, tomorrow I'm going to Plovdiv, Bulgaria! 😎
Cleared out notifications caused by bugs that I solved earlier today
Fixed a basic SEO text + image for Trips. Will make this 200x better with custom pictures in the future.
Changed "Sory By" to "Sort By" on the Explore Page. Spelling is hard
Notifications about a trip are now properly removed if the trip is removed
Prevented users from spamming Follow to flood notifications
Add "No results" for City Search in Create New Trip-modal
User Profile - Fix title & SEO. Set card image to profile picture
Upload new version & remove clutter in database
Bye bye Google Autocomplete API 👋 Hello search from scratch! Super quick searches that support my own pictures & flags.
Playing around with the map still, I just added all my active cities as interactive circles! 😍 This is addicting... not sure what kind of features I can build from this yet though!
And here's how it looks when you've clicked on it. It will automatically show you the location of the city you're viewing (In this case, Chiang Mai, Thailand). Can't wait to fill this map with goodies
Added a map-button on every city page. Clicking on it will load up a map through a modal. Right now it's just a basic map, but I have plans to add pins for all locations with data, and possibly where users currently are visiting!
