1.5.21 - Coming Soon

David Cowley David Cowley

Happy new year everyone! As we start a new year, we like to reflect on what we achieved, what features we've implemented, and how we've made the platform better. But this is not the place for that. Here we only bring you new and exciting developments (pun intended).

Coming this patch are some new momentum triggers (continuing this trend from momentum triggers released in 1.5.19), improvements to completions and emails for live learnings, and some really nice optimisation work for a few common reports. Also a collection of smaller changes and bug fixes.

Version 1.5.21 will be rolling out on all sites from Sunday 12th, January 2025

What's New! 🎊

AR-6831 | Momentum Trigger - Course Enrolment

Continuing with our new trigger work, we've created a new trigger node that starts a momentum when a user enrols into a course. This can be used to automatically remind users to complete the course, send feedback requests, or sync multiple courses together (enrolling in one enrols the user in them all).

As we already have a momentum node that enrols a user into a course, you can also chain momentums together. Enrolling a user into a course triggers a momentum that enrols a user into a course that triggers a momentum...

AR-6832 | Momentum Trigger - Course Completion

We also have a new momentum trigger for when a user completes a course. This could be used to enrol a user into subsequent content, send feedback requests, or to notify administrators that users are completing specific content. Triggers like these are really flexible, and can address many different and interesting use cases.

Changes ✨ 

AR-6385 | Display 'update completion criteria' message for live learning

Previously, in order to complete a live learning, you needed to complete every event within it. We've made a change to allow this to be configurable, so you can choose which events are required to complete the live learning.

To support this, there is a new modal window that opens when adding a new event to a live learning, confirming that the new event will not be part of the completion criteria automatically, and providing a link to update the criteria.

Additionally, when you do update the completion criteria of a live learning, the system prompts for how to handle any existing completions, to either retain, archive or remove the completions. This is the same as how courses are handled when completion criteria are changed. This gives you much more control on what to do with existing completions when you update live learnings.

AR-6828 | Session Email Recipients

Admins can now send session emails to users who match a specific status, instead of choosing them manually. You can choose to send emails to everyone who is registered, marked as attended, or marked as did not attend.

AR-6797 | My Profile - My Completions Sorting

The My Completions tab of the My Profile page will default sort by most recent completion, making it easier for users to view what they have done recently.

AR-6122 | Updated Address Autocomplete field

The Address Autocomplete field will be enhanced to improve it's usability and bring it up to date with the other visual and accessible design of the platform.

AR-6796 | Updated visual of field in create and update user

The form to create, edit and view the user details in the admin menu will be updated to use the new form fields, with their new consistent visual design, layout, and interactivity.

Bug Fixes 🐞 

AR-6798 | Performance improvements on the Compliance Report

As part of our attempts to improve reporting, we've started work on reviewing and optimising existing reports, in attempt to make reports run faster. The report most in need is the Compliance Report, which has had some major optimisation work complete. It will now run much faster.

AR-6824 | Performance improvements on the Completion Report

The completion report also had some optimisation work complete, so it will complete much more quickly as well.

AR-6848 | Performance improvements on the Live Learning Attendance Report

Finally, the Live Learning Attendance Report has also had an optimisation pass, improving the time for it to generate significantly.

AR-6715 | Form dependencies removed when detaching template

Fixed a bug where form dependencies were lost when detaching a form from a template.

AR-6440 | Strings are not properly translated

Resolved some missing text translations.

AR-6801 | Image in slider widget shifts slightly

Resolved a bug where the image in a slider widget would shift after the page reloads.

AR-6821 | Hidden content visible to users on the external catalogue

Fixed an issue where hidden content was visible to users in the external catalogue.

AR-6861 | Catalogue and license tile display rounded payment amounts

When courses with payments attached to them appear in the system as a tile (including in the catalogue & recommended content) this displays the cost of the content when applicable. This now correctly shows the full price, instead of rounding it.
