SAC Tools | v2.0
+ Main hub page is now SAC Tools, and links to the tools as well as changelogs, external resources for all of the child sites. Main page can be found at sac.tools, and the timer tool can still be found at sactimer.com or sac.tools/timer. Main hub has a new own logo.
+ SAC Timer is now hosted under parent site: sac.tools.
+ SAC Timer has been redesigned to make the UI less cluttered and distraction-free with fewer visual elements and a more minimal design. The buttons on the timer display page are no longer filled in so that they aren't distracting, and the opacity of some elements are dropped for the same reason.
+ SAC Timer buttons now update on click to show the action they're performing. eg. Start, resume, pause timer etc. The buttons will also hide themselves when their function is inapplicable to avoid clutter.
+ Reading time and 'more options' are now collapsible elements on the configuration page to again, avoid clutter. Reading time will now toggle and hide when disabled.
+ SAC Timer reset timer button now asks for confirmation before resetting to prevent accidental resets.
+ The timer now hides the reading time block when reading time is over and shows it again once the timer has elapsed.
+ SAC Timer's reading and writing times can be configured in the URL by inputting the total time in seconds for each segment. This utilises $_GET variables so that you can copy links to timers or have them bookmarked for easy access, rather than having to re-enter the times every instance.
+ Fixed the 1 second delay in switiching from reading time to writing time in the SAC Timer.
+ SAC Timer code has been updated to be far more efficient in terms of converting times between units and when reusing sections of code.
+ SAC Timer now has a segmented progress bar that is dynamic and shows progress in real time with correct proportion of reading/writing time.
+ Added Google analystics for administration purposes.
- Fixed a validation error that caused the timer to show an error when writing time is less than one hour for SAC Timer.
