Thanks for tuning in to our release notes this National Radio Day! I love NPR, the CBC, RTVE's Radio 2, and countless local radio stations. Not (yet?) on broadcast, I also recommend checking out The Not-Boring Tech Writer podcast, sponsored by us! Now enough talk about talk, let's get into what we've improved and fixed recently.
Improvements
We recently released these improvements:
- Our required reading feature allows you to require logged in readers to read and acknowledge articles in your knowledge base. We released an improvement that now allows you to assign articles as required reading to specific reader groups, instead of having it apply for all readers.
- Folks weren't finding how to insert tables or other things within the new editor because it wasn't clear that you could scroll down to see more options within the Insert dropdown. Full disclosure: I was among these people when the change was first released. Now we have a fade added to the dropdown that signals that there's more below:
Bugs we squashed
We recently released these bugfixes:
- We had a bug when you made edits in an article immediately after activating a new version. It warned that you'd made conflicting edits and asked what you wanted to do, which was confusing since there was no conflict. We've fixed this now, so you should only see valid conflicting edit warnings after activating a version.
- If you had notifications set to receive an email when a category was deleted from your knowledge base, you may have received an email with a generic "KnowledgeOwl Notification" subject line. We've updated these notifications to read "Category deleted: [Category name]" so they're just as descriptive as our other email notifications.
- If you use the article editor Preview option to see how your articles look before saving changes you've made and your knowledge base root path was set to
/docsor/home, the preview may not have been working properly. We've fixed this so preview should work for all of our root paths.
