Blog :: November Review

Month two in the world of Cheatography - more brilliant new cheat sheets, a host of site changes and the second member of the month!

Another hectic month is over, though this one wasn't quite as manic for me as October. Loads of new cheat sheets have been built (and I can see plenty more in progress), there are new features, and plenty more to come.

What's New?

November saw a fair few changes, most of which were behind the scenes. Here's a roundup of what you might have missed:

  • Hovering over a member's username now gives you a roundup of what they've posted to the site.
  • Cheat sheet PDFs now include a footer bar with your photo and URL (and your "display name")!
  • The online cheat sheets are now searchable.
  • Cheat sheets can now use lighter coloured backgrounds, and text colours will adjust to remain readable.
  • There are new content types - plain text and bar charts. And the Question and Answer content block has been improved.
  • Comments can now be left by non-members on cheat sheets.

Coming soon - cheat sheet requests, a "cheat screen", more changes to comments (including a long-overdue spam filter), new content types, cheat sheet stats and more!

New Cheat Sheets!

Building on the success of October, November saw a huge 16 new cheat sheets, downloaded a whopping 9,844 times! Well done to everyone who made a cheat sheet!

Here they all are:

Member of the Month

This month, the choice has been even tougher than last month. So many people contributed to the site - new cheat sheets, lots of feedback, and plenty of bug reports and ideas. However, one person stood out - not only did they create some great cheat sheets (that I'm now using myself), but they fired ideas and feedback my way throughout the month. So the member of the month for November is ... fredv! Thanks for all your help, Fred :)

Bring on December!

November has been brilliant. Less panicked than October, and with some top notch content coming through from the community. I can't wait to see what happens in December!
