Video playback: Progress tracking has been enhanced to handle connection drops or browser timeouts more effectively. If you or your learners still encounter issues, please let us know.
Programs: We've resolved an issue that was preventing users from duplicating programs.
In the past weeks we have released to following improvements:
Member import
Newly added members are now high-lighted in green on the confirmation pane. When importing a lot of members, you can now quickly see who’s new and who’s not. Hover over the names to reveal more detailed info about what’s going on:
Notifications
Some links in the notification dropdown wouldn’t open the correct page.
The notification dropdown now also includes alerts about new messages in discussions you follow.
Improvements were made in the delivery of push notifications.
Various bug fixes
Members: When exporting to Excel, some fields were not included in the spreadsheet.
Groups: The total member counts in the group overview now exclude deactivated members as before.
Glossary: In rare situations, some terms would not become clickable.
Widgets: Not all categories would be visible when setting up content filters.
Widgets: In some cases, staff members would not be able to edit widgets with no content.
Search filter: An issue was resolved where it would not be possible to manually enter the date and time.
We've overhauled the Member profile pages. There are now dedicated tabs for various info and settings:
Profile: see the member's profile info, like company, address, custom fields, etc
Participation (only shown when inside a course): see the learner's history, certificate, results.
Assignments: see all roles/assignments of the member. If you have permission, then you can assign new groups, courses, programs, etc. You can also change the role of the member.
Account (for managers only): view and manage the user's Email/username, access code, external IDs, deactivation date, etc, etc.
Decentralized group and member management
There is new “advanced group permissions” feature, which (when enabled) features:
Domain managers can delegate member management to "Group Managers" (as defined per group)
Group managers can only create and modify members within their own group(s).
Group managers can only view learning results of the members within their group(s).
When setting the permission of a course, a group manager can only select (members of) his own groups. E.g. he cannot assign other groups/member to the course.
Please contact us to enable the advanced group permissions feature.
Course/ program settings
There is now a dedicated “Permissions” tab where you can control the visibility and enrollment settings. The “Seat limit” field has moved to the “General” tab.
On the “Permissions” tab you can now specify which Groups of members should be “automatically enrolled” in the course (or program). Previously, this had to be done by domain-level managers under Setup > Groups.
We have just released some improvements that we think you'll appreciate:
Audio Playback: Now you can make audio playback mandatory in courses. Similar to video content, you have the flexibility to set the minimum percentage of audio that must be played before learners can proceed to the next step.
Hyperlink Insertion: You can now directly insert hyperlinks in Programs, Hand-picked widgets, and the Navigation bars. This eliminates the need to navigate through the Setup section to add a link.
We fixed an ugly 500 error that occurred when performing bulk edits on members.
Place widgets side-by-side by choosing one of the new 2 and 3 column layouts.
Add video, images, and text blocks directly on the start pages for short introduction messages.
Further changes
The "Arrange blocks" function has moved to the Edit mode of the Page and Start page editor.
Date and Time pickers have been replaced with browser/platform native controls. This is especially handy when you're using Coursepath on iOS or Android.
A new “Time” filter is added to the Members page in a courses, as well as in the Participants report.
Images in rich text content can now be zoomed by clicking on them.
The toolbar will be updated to provide a more consistent and predictable experience. Using the familiar breadcrumb navigation style, you will be able to easily see where you are in the course.
The course tool menu (with options such as Events and Glossary) will be moved to the course home page.
The top-level navigation bar will always be visible, so all your key Academy destinations will be just a click away.
Page headings
You will be able to make your pages stand out by applying new headline styles. Display the page's featured image, author and publication date.
