Data Update Poll!
Hello, there is currently an important debate going on regarding how to manage the FM24 Data Update going forward, particularly in the case of modifying the ages and contract dates by 1 year. Please can you vote in the poll and join in the discussion.

Also what SEO issues are you seeing in lighthouse? I'm not seeing alot…

Just curious, why do you use png for all images on the page? Why not use webp or jpg? From what I could gather, those are much better to use on the web (source).
Edit: Nevermind, I see now that after you have integrated bunny, most images has been converted to webp.

It's the crawlable links, as well as not having alt on some images on the page. The missing alt is also an issue for accessibility
Footygamer
Those three links are fine as dropdowns, it's pretty common practice.
The alt tags would help a little but not really, especially where we don't care about the images being in google image search.
Accessibility, I don't worry too much about screen readers etc since FM isn't accessible itself.
That's not to say it's not important, but in terms of priorities it's pretty low for me.

@Footygamer The images for the kits in the newsletter are wrong.

Fair enough
@Footygamer Some clubs are showing up in the browsing system while they're not in the game anymore.
Footygamer
I think this has come up before and i'm not totally sure how to handle it. Some people do play older games, I guess just hiding it will be fine.
It was the same with players from older games still showing up on their club pages, I think you said you had fixed it easily back then
Footygamer
Deleted clubs should be hidden now.
@Footygamer Loading times are very slow since yesterday (throughout the whole site)

Sorry I was away in a stag, I was getting warning emails but far too drunk to be able to check. Is it okay now?

You pisshead 🤣
It was particularly bad on Friday/Saturday but it seems to have sorted itself out mostly by now. Or at least as far as I can tell.
Footygamer
I think it may have been been caused by the FPL micro site doing its calculations.
I should stop being lazy and put it on its own server 🙂
Footygamer
Actually from what I can tell it's just a shit load of traffic due to the transfer window closing. Shows how popular the Data Update these days 😅
I will reconfigure the server to better handle it in anticipation of FM23 release.

@Footygamer Some of the logos on the front page are ever so slightly cut off:
Footygamer
This only just started right? This isn't controlled by us but by our CDN provider, probably something has changed their end.

Not sure what's happening here:
This thumbnail (for this player) isn't being resized properly
If someone has an underscore at the end of their name, you can't tag them properly sometimes. Trying to tag @beau_ but his name is not in the list

That should be fixed now.
