Patreon Hall Of Fame: a new section on the "About" page listing the amazing people who support Kanka on Patreon. #200

Improvements

Exploration Mode: Improved the various "Exploration View" modes (locations, categories) to include a helper text explaining what the feature does, and adding some more enticing visual clues on what can be clicked. #203

Locations: Added an "Organisations" menu when viewing locations to view all orgs located in that location. #218

Images in rich text editor: Allow max-width and max-height to be set for responsive-sizes images.

Forms: It is now possible to "tab" to the rich select fields, allowing faster creation when on a computer.

Changed the field "sex" to "gender" on characters.

Pagination: Patrons can set their max pagination to 100. #200

Location Map: Patrons can now upload 10 MB maps to locations. #200

Bug Fixes

Fixed problems with deleting pre-generated locations.

Fixed various UI issues.

Fixed errors on calendars with no week days causing errors.

Fixed the character and location count on quests not taking into account the permissions of the user.

Fixed character race filtering not working.

Fixed errors when deleting several races at the same time.

Fixed hiding location points in the "full view" not working.

Fixed an bug and error when deleting several entities at a time which deleted nested entities.

Fixed the "starter" entries now properly showing their foreign ids (locations, characters).
