Metrics Update
The response to the new dashboard metrics has been great, people seem really excited about being able to get a glimpse of how things are going so easily. And since people are so excited about it, I’ve already gotten a lot of good feedback and bug reports. I just pushed out an update that includes some tweaks and fixes based on this feedback:
- The chart now spans the last 6 months rather than 4. 6 months ended up fitting pretty well and is a more natural amount of time. This means if you input the last 4 months today to fill up the chart, there’s a bit more to do :)
- The chart is now two line graphs, rather than a combination line/bar chart. The connected dots make it a bit easier to follow the trends. Also, the attendance graph is now filled to give it some more weight.
- Some entries at the beginning and ends of the time ranges were being left off, which shouldn’t happen anymore.
- Events that had been deleted still had their attendance numbers showing up on the graph, which should no longer happen.
- You can now click on the dots to go to a listing of all the records for both attendance and contributions. The contributions page is the normal tab, but the attendances page is new. This was added to make it easier to track down any attendance entries that needed to be deleted. This page is pretty bare bones for now, but will be fleshed out as time goes on.
- The metrics header now includes (Beta) since its still in such active development
Here’s a screenshot of how the chart is looking after this update:
There is still plenty to do with this feature, and I’m hoping you’ll keep on providing feedback for making it even better. Let me know what you think!
