Dan Lister

Worked on the umbraco/UmbracoDocs repository to address upgrade failures related to excessively long file and folder paths. Focused on improving documentation by updating the FAQ with a dedicated troubleshooting workflow, including a standard error message and clear steps for users to resolve path length issues during upgrades. Utilized Markdown to structure the documentation and applied strong technical writing skills to ensure clarity and reusability. This work reduced upgrade friction and support overhead by enabling faster triage for users encountering long-path errors, and established a reusable troubleshooting pattern that can be applied to similar upgrade edge cases in the future.
