SailEvent unaffected by PHP vulnerability

You won’t have missed the news that two security vulnerabilities have been discovered within the PHP development platform. Indeed you may have found that some PHP-based websites are offline.

This is to assure you that Sailing Club Software online services, including SailEvent, DO NOT USE PHP. Therefore they are completely unaffected by this unfortunate incident.

Do get in touch if you need more information.

Announcing Event Archiving

Now is the time to declutter!

As the northern hemisphere sailing season begins to wind down, many will be looking to declutter their records of past events but still keep them on file.

That’s where event archiving comes in. Think of it as deleting an event but with the option of resurrecting it later.

What’s more archiving removes personally identifiable information including helm and crew contact details and emergency contacts. That makes it easy to comply with privacy legislation such as the GDPR.

Archived events don’t normally appear in the list on the events page but you can see them via the selector switch . 

When you can see them, you can restore them with just one click.


Enjoy your new uncluttered desktop!
