Changed On November 20, 2024
Added transcription functionality to the archive. When a transcription is available, a checkbox will appear to show the text as the service plays. Currently, transcriptions are only available for audio copies of services. We will continue to work to get every service transcribed, as well as to make these available for video content as well. We'll do so going forward for new services that are added.
Changed On November 28, 2023
Updated the scripture function such that it can now retrieve multiple referenced passages of scripture and display them.
Slightly changed the watch/listen buttons on the service page, added visual labels
Changed the way a service's page title is generated
Changed On November 17, 2023
At long last, this archive has a contact form. Clicking on links across the site that reference the form will now take you there, such as the one at the top of this page. It's now listed in the navigation menu as well.
Changed On June 20, 2023
Fixed an issue with the date page not displaying services from the very beginnings and ends of months.
Changed On June 11, 2023
I added some visual styling to the homepage. Hopefully it looks prettier now, but I'm totally unable to tell. Once I get it the way I think it should look, I'll roll it out across the site.
Changed On May 4, 2023
Added a suggestions feature to the search function, such that it will now show you possible matches to the search you are typing in a dropdown list.
Changed On April 27, 2023
Updated the search function to search across the whole archive. You can now search by title, series, author, and scripture. Searching by date may still be somewhat unsuccessful
Changed On April 25, 2023
Added an experimental feature to show the full text of refferenced scripture on the services page. Now, if you click on the primary text of a service, that text actually appears at the bottom. This works for most refferences, but I'm still perfecting scripture ranges that span across chapter breaks, or services where the primary text is from two different books.
Changed On April 15, 2023
Fixed an issue with the way the site determines what kind of services are being displayed on the homepage, such as Sunday Morning or Wednesday Evening services. The previous implementation didn't take into account outliers like Friday evening services and didn't show appropriate text.
Fixed an issue with the Services page attempting to display an author for services with no author, such as the Good Friday service
Added a very rudimentary search feature. It is now possible to search the archive by the title of a service
Changed on February 16, 2023
Added a brand new "scripture" page, where you can see services sorted by their primary text.
Changed the behavior of the "services" page such that it doesn't tell you "No audio currently available" if an audio version of the service isn't available. Now, it won't refference audio in any form, following the precedent of the "watch/listen" buttons disappearing.
Changed On February 10, 2023
Changed the bulletin/bible study display to disappear if no bulletin/bible study is available.
Changed on February 9, 2023
Changed the date displayed under each service shown on the "series" page to be more human-readable.
Changed the way the bulletin is shown on the page. Now, instead of clicking a link to be redirected somewhere else, the bulletin or bible study can be embedded right below the video of the service so you can keep everything in one place.
Changed On February 2, 2023
Fixed a small issue on the "author" page where sometimes all services by an author were not being displayed.
Changed On January 29, 2023
Added an "About The Archives" page.
Changed on January 23, 2023
updated code for the "series" page to fix an issue with all sermons in some series' not displaying correctly
Changed on January 19, 2023
Fixed an issue with the way the archive displays sermon and series titles.
Updated the author page such that it shows "This service is not part of a series" instead of a blank space.
Changed the author and series pages to check to make sure the series requested exists before displaying its services to you.
Changed on January 18, 2023
Added a heading to the series page which will now appear even if the page was not requested with a series specified. Previously, just going to the that page would only display the navigation links then the list of available series
Changed the list of displayed series' on the "series" page such that blank list items are no longer present.
Changed the date on the "services" page so it's more readable.
Changed On January 14, 2023
Added a date page, such that you can look at all services in the archive, sorted by their date
Changed on January 13, 2023
Added selectivbe controls to the services page so you can watch or listen to a sermon. Previously, the only way to listen to the audio only was to download it. Now you can select "listen" and hear audio if it's available
These buttons will not appear if no audio is available.
Updated the homepage so that it wouldn't try to display the series a service was part of if it wasn't a part of a series.
Changed on January 6, 2023
Added the ability for the service page to check to see if audio was available for download. If not, it won't give you a link to it now
Added some "welcome" text to the homepage.
Added navigation links to the site
Added the type of service, sunday morning, sunday evening, or Wednesday Evening, under each service displayed on the homepage
Added the series the service is a part of under each service displayed on the homepage as well.
Added a series page and an author page. If you go to one of these pages, you will see a list of authors or sermon series. If you click on an author or series, all the services associated with that author or series will be displayed.
Added a check to the services page to make sure the service exists before attempting to show it to you
Changed on January 5, 2023
Well, the archive is now finally becoming a reality! It has a home on the web now, at fbccs.that-domain.com. It's hosted under another site at this time, but it won't remain like that for too long. This is just a temporary staging site.
created the service page, added the ability to display information such as the service author, scripture, series, and some download links.
