Name page links straight to adding a label window

Oct 18, 2026
changed Oct 18, 2026

The label-window section on the asset name page now links directly to the add form on the asset history page, with the asset already picked and the identifier type set to ticker, saving a click per record. A plain link to view the asset's windows sits beside it.

Ledger and asset-link pages keep your view when you switch between them

Oct 11, 2026
changed Oct 11, 2026

Links between the ledger and the asset-link workbench now carry rows per page, the page number, the sort order and the advanced search filters both pages have, so switching pages lands on the same rows.

A sort column the other page does not have is left behind, and the page number is left behind with it, because the rows would be in a different order. Filters that exist on only one page stay on that page. Hovering a link says what it will carry. Links to the other ledger pages are unchanged.

A changelog for the site

Identity pages aligned to one layout

Oct 11, 2026

The identity search page

Oct 1, 2026

The asset page

Oct 1, 2026
changed October 2026 Reconstructed from file notes

Each related-record count above zero on the asset page is now a link to the rows it counted. The corporate actions count was removed.

A zero or failed count stays plain, so a link always lands on rows.

changed October 2026 Reconstructed from file notes

Names and label windows on the asset page now open their own record pages, and adding or linking a name goes to the new asset name page instead of the retired add-name page.

Names first (2.0.1), label windows next (2.0.2).

The asset name page

Oct 1, 2026

The asset history page

Oct 1, 2026
changed October 2026 Reconstructed from file notes

After saving a window, the link to the ledger assets page opens it filtered to the asset just worked on, with a second link for an older ticker when one was entered, instead of the whole ledger.

The entity page

Oct 1, 2026
changed Sep 18, 2026 Reconstructed from a work log

"+ add asset" now appears on every entity, beside its asset count, not only on an entity with none. An issuer with several securities could only ever get its first one from this page.

The link is still withheld when the asset list could not be read, and the count then reads "unknown" instead of zero.

The asset page

Oct 1, 2026
fixed September 2026 Reconstructed from file notes

Each label window on the asset page links to that window's record, and the add or edit windows button now opens the history page filtered to this asset. It had sent a setting the history page never read, so it always opened the whole table.

The entity page

Oct 1, 2026
added August 2026 Reconstructed from file notes

An entity with no assets yet offers "+ add asset", which opens the add-asset page with this entity already chosen.

The link shipped in 1.3.0; the add-asset page learned to read it in its own next version, and 1.3.1 records that.

The identity search page

Oct 1, 2026
added Jul 10, 2026 Reconstructed from file notes

The search page links to the pages that add an entity, an asset or a name: an action bar under the search box, a link inside each empty panel, and a "+ add name" link in any asset row whose name is blank, opened with that symbol filled in.

Built over two versions the same day: the entity and asset links first (1.0.2), then the name link and the blank-cell shortcut (1.0.4).

changed July 2026 Reconstructed from file notes

The search page moved into the site's admin tools area, where access is checked by role, and now uses the site's shared page header, footer and navigation. Every link on it was updated to the new addresses, and search engines are told not to index it.

The entity page

Oct 1, 2026
changed July 2026 Reconstructed from file notes

The entity page moved into the site's admin tools area, where access is checked by role, and now uses the site's shared page header, footer and navigation. Its links were updated to the new addresses, and search engines are told not to index it.

The asset page

Oct 1, 2026
changed July 2026 Reconstructed from file notes

The asset page moved into the site's admin tools area, where access is checked by role, and now uses the site's shared page header, footer and navigation. Every link and form on it, including the ones that save notes and stories, was updated to the new address.

The add-name page

Oct 1, 2026

The add-entity page

Oct 1, 2026
changed July 2026 Reconstructed from file notes

The add-entity page moved into the site's admin tools area, where access is checked by role, and now uses the site's shared page header, footer and navigation.

Its forms post back to their own address, so the move needed no change to the write path.
