📊 Enhanced Reporting

In Fellow LMS, the section, step, and question reports now allow you to include optional member fields, giving you even more flexibility and insight.

In addition, we did some bug fixes and improvements to the user interface.

• We fixed a nasty bug where the time input for a meeting or event was occasionally not stored.

• Embedding YouTube videos by pasting the hyperlink is now working again.

• Page editor: Fixed a bug where, in some cases, users could not enter a space character in the inline page heading field.

• Portal page: Resolved an issue where items were invisible to anonymous visitors on public portal pages.

• Embed code: Improved support for embedding tweets from X.

• In courses, the "Continue" button now remains disabled until the learner has checked the answers to all questions.

• You can now set hints for drag-and-drop questions, just like with multiple-choice questions.

• A layout issue in notification emails has been fixed.

At Fellow Digitals, we believe in creating digital environments where everyone can engage and benefit from our products. That’s why we are excited to share some updates aimed at enhancing accessibility for all users.

Latest Accessibility Enhancements

Our recent release introduces a range of updates designed to improve accessibility. These updates reflect our ongoing commitment to meeting and exceeding accessibility standards. Some of the key enhancements include: 

• Improved Keyboard Navigation: We have refined keyboard interactions, ensuring that users can efficiently navigate all features without the need for a mouse.

• Enhanced Screen Reader Support: We’ve made significant improvements to the way our platform interacts with screen readers.

• Color Contrast Adjustments: Our design team has reviewed and adjusted color contrasts across the platform.

• Form Accessibility: Forms have been updated with improved labels and error messages, making them more understandable and easier to use with assistive technologies.

These updates are part of our broader mission to create an inclusive digital experience. 

Our Goal: WCAG 2.2 Certification

Looking ahead, we are targeting full compliance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) by early 2025. The WCAG 2.2 guidelines provide a comprehensive framework for making web content more accessible.

We understand that accessibility is an evolving field, and we are dedicated to staying at the forefront of these changes. Accessibility is not just a checkbox for us; it is a continuous journey of improvement. Our product development team will continue to prioritize accessibility in future updates.

• Some glossary terms with special characters it in would not be clickable.

• Retake attempt settings have been restored for SCORM courses.

• Calendar invite emails now support HTML body text.

• Deactivated members are now hidden in member pickers.

• After importing members, you can choose whether you would like to invite all selected members, or just the newly added members.

• We've restored the option to edit and delete meetings that occurred in the past.

This new version brings the following improvements:

Rich Text Editor: The text block editor now has a more compact appearance, allowing you to focus on writing your content. Less frequently used options, such as paragraph styles, are now just one click away in overflow menus.

SCORM and LTI: Support for popular learning standards is now built right into Coursepath. Do you want to offer courses in SCORM or LTI format? Please contact us for licensing options.

Smoother HTML5 Import: You can now directly import HTML5 courses. This feature creates a straightforward course with just the imported HTML5 package. The "Start" button launches the course in a new window for an optimal full-screen learning experience.

Programs: You can now set up a custom notification message for when a new section becomes available.

Video player: The learner can no longer increase the playback speed of videos.

Member profiles: We have fixed a bug where the widget arrangement on the member profile page was not saved.

Search: We've introduced the option to enable anonymous users to search public information within your academy. If you're interested in activating this feature, please reach out to [email protected].
