Cyber Security News
News organisations are reporting a major cybersecurity flaw affecting millions of websites worldwide.
The flaw was discovered in a technology known as PHP. Golden Records Online is not based on PHP, so it is not affected. Our helpdesk at https://help.archery-records.net does use PHP but has been patched, as has the associated site at https://archery-software.co.uk
The Golden Records Online platform is protected by Cloudflare, which screens all traffic for exploits and blocks it when necessary.

Member Photos
In a large, busy club it can be hard for officials to put faces to names. Golden Records now supports member photos, which appear on each member's profile so you can quickly identify who's who at the range, on the shooting line, or in the club house.
Photos can be uploaded by club officials with the appropriate permissions, and members can also upload or update their own photo from their profile. Common image formats are supported, including photos taken directly on a phone.
It's a small change that helps new members feel recognised, and makes it easier for coaches, records officers and membership secretaries to match names to faces.

New Member Notifications
The member notification system has been expanded. You now have greater control over which events automatically trigger notifications and can select exactly what members are notified about.
Previously, emailing a member when processing their subscription required enabling a switch. This setting is now managed globally in Member Settings.
New pages are also available to advise clubs of new classifications and handicaps achieved within the previous 28 days. You can enable email notifications for these updates in Records Settings.
When notifying a member of a new achievement, such as setting a new club record, you can optionally attach a certificate to the email.
If enabled, the member will be emailed automatically when a new club record or a new achievement is approved.
