Radiopaedia Blog: New feature

Just a quick note to let you know that in December we will be running our first, and hopefully yearly, donation drive. We sincerely hope you will be able to support us, and ensure that Radiopaedia.org continues to grow, and remains free. 

You will see some new banners and social media posts about it, which will make the whole process extremely easy. 

Thanks in advance

Frank

Founder and Editor 

We have been struggling with the existing text editor on the site for quite some time (years actually) since support for it was discontinued. Finally we are rolling out a new and much improved editor, which you will now see when you 'contact user' (through their profile page). 

Once we have kicked the tires we will deploy it to the rest of the site. So, in the mean time, please let us know if you have any problems with it.. 

Thanks for your patience, 

Frank

Until now, our search page was very picky about how you spelled something. Although that is often just a typo, sometimes it made life difficult. After all, many of us would struggle to remember the correct spelling of Lhermitte-Duclos syndrome... or was that L'Hermite-Duclo? 

It turns out that changing search engine and integrating into the various features on the site (both those visible, and the hidden away admin features) is no small task, and it has taken quite some time and work to get this working. Still, it was worth it.

Our search results are now much more forgiving and accept 'close enough' searches and provide you with both 'did you mean' alternatives and best guess results. 

We are planning on improving the search results further in the near(ish) future, including playlist, blog post and user profiles in the results, but that is a feature for another day. 

Hope this helps, and please let us know what you think.
