Latest activity works, except for the Breweries tab.
Also, when you click on Friends, and then click on a friend’s rating and go back, you end up at the Latest Activity home page (which is blank). Not sure if it’s meant to be this way, but I’d like to end up at the page I was before instead of at the home page.

If it’s already been asked I appologize. Am I blind? I can’t find anywhere to add a beer to my cellar. I’ve tried mobile, and desktop Internet Explorer and Chrome.... No dice.

I noticed this the other day too. Went to add some smoked beers to my wants list and found I couldn’t.

Latest activity does not work for me and for none of my friends either. The old link still works i.e www.ratebeer.com/activity but the new link www.ratebeer.com/latest absolutely does not.

Any chance of either one of the two mobile apps I paid for actually working one day? The developers no longer respond. Quite disappointing really.

The problem is that there is no default selection, if you take a closer look you can see you have four options: friends, local, global and Breweries (the latter does not do anything it seems).

It took me a while before I realised the change. A default would be nice so one does not have to click again to see activity.

Is there a list?
No answer so far.

Another one. Today I rated a cider. I wanted to see where my thinking was amongst ciders, so I clicked ...style-ratings and got a full list of styles up until ciders and sakes and meads. Whereupon someone’s forgotten to c&p the link behavior over to the non-beer styles.

It’s no big deal except I remember pointing out this (small) problem some time ago. I have little confidence that it was noted. That it’s not been acted on is not very important. But it’s a concern that you seem to be
> making changes that break things
> implementing them without properly testing them
> not hearing or documenting feedback from users about what’s broken.

If there isn’t a list of what’s been reported broken, get someone to make one. Get someone who knows about stuff to assign issues/ action to available people (or ask for people who can do stuff).

Yea I’ve noticed this as well since I’m casually trying to get to 10 of every non-beer style but I can’t see what Koshu Sake’s I’ve had, for example, it makes it tougher in my searching.

On the beer page click on the "availability" or "distribution" linky, in the next page, top-right, you will find links to add "haves" and "wants" to your cellar

Perfect! Thank you! I made sure to leave a trail of breadcrumbs to find my way back out of the website to get home.
