Finding timelines: every list on the dashboard and profiles searches, sorts and pages in place, with richer cards and a timeline's own image; and search engines can find each public moment and duration.
Added
- Search, sort and page every list (#337, [#361]). Your timelines, your favorites, drafts in this browser, explore, and a profile's timelines and favorites each have their own search by words and tag, sort (including a new Recently changed), and pages. Your own lists can be filtered to public or private. Each list keeps its own place in the address, so searching one leaves the others alone, and all of it works without JavaScript.
- The timeline browser works in place (#338, [#363]). Lists search as you type, and sorting, tags and pages change without reloading the page or losing your scroll position. Back returns to the previous search. Cards show the owner, when the timeline last changed, badges (Private, Featured, Read-only comparison, Sensitive), an excerpt, its size, and the span and shape of its moments. A Grid / List toggle is remembered in the browser. Arrow keys move between cards.
- A timeline's own image (#339, [#362]). In Sharing & settings → Image, owners can give a timeline an image: an HTTPS link to where it is hosted, with alt text. It shows at the top of its card, above the title in the editor and reader, and as the timeline page's link preview and oEmbed thumbnail. Timelines with sensitive-content labels show a placeholder instead. The server still stores no image files; exports carry an embedded copy.
- Moments and durations in search engines (#335, [#360]). The sitemap now lists the moment and duration pages of public, unlabelled timelines of up to 5,000 moments (
SITEMAP_TIMELINE_ENTITIES, 1 to 45,000). Their pages carry their text, related entities and schema.org structured data (Eventon Gregorian timelines, otherwiseCreativeWork). Pages of labelled timelines ask not to be indexed.
Changed
- CI (#351, [#364]). The browser jobs run in Playwright's image, and the other jobs install packages from Ubuntu's own archive, so a slow Azure mirror no longer stalls them.
Upgrading
Install the new package and run openchronology-migrate as usual. The migration adds one column (oc_timelines.image); nothing else changes.
