During November 2024, Donald Smith focused on improving the event creation workflow in the archivesspace/archivesspace repository. He addressed a navigation bug where the +1 button, when used from the main menu, incorrectly redirected users to an edit page instead of a fresh event form. By refining the logic in Ruby on Rails and updating the frontend with JavaScript and HTML, Donald ensured that the button now consistently opens a new event form when no redirect is specified. This targeted fix clarified the intended workflow, reduced user confusion, and improved maintainability by documenting the expected behavior for future development.
