Programs

  • Programs can now contain Pages (with survey questions).

  • Programs can now be duplicated, just like courses.

  • Program Editing has been improved, and now works similarly to editing courses.

  • Roles at program level are now similar to courses (learner, teacher, auditor, etc). These roles are now also selectable in the Programs widget.

  • Additional reporting for Programs has been added (see below)

  • Webhooks have been added for program members: created, completed, deleted.


"My Progress" dropdown

  • The new “My Progress” dropdown lists the learner’s progress of courses/programs.

  • The dropdown is available through the top menu icon (next to notifications).

  • FYI: The “My Progress” portal widget is postponed, but we want to add some additional features/settings before we make it available to our customers.

  • FYI: In the future, this feature could be expanded to something broader, with various personal “todo” things, like upcoming events, answers that need review, CMS workflow tasks, etc.


Reporting

  • A new report type “Questions” is added. It lists the answers by all learners.

  • Reports have been renamed: Participants, Sections, Steps, Questions, Statistics, Traffic.

  • The reports Sections, Steps and Questions are now available within a course/program only.

  • Course and program reports are now shown with the navigation of that course/program.

  • Saved reports can now have start/end dates. Outside this period, the report won't be sent.


Sections and Pages

  • Modules are now called Sections

  • Regular Steps in a course are now simply called Pages

  • Sections can now have a short introduction text, to be shown in the Table of Contents.

  • Sections now has a setting "Appearance in the Table of Contents", similar to Steps. This setting controls whether a section should be displayed on the main start page of the course.

  • Previously, unselecting the checkbox "Manage Course > Settings > Appearance > Menu > Contents", would hide sections on the startpage of the course. Now, hiding sections can be done using the setting "Appearance in the Table of Contents: Hidden" option. Settings for existing sections will be automatically adjusted accordingly.


Navigation for Learners

  • Even if a course-level learner has higher permissions on academy-level, then the Table of Contents and Course Navigation will still assume the user is a learner. Editing options are hidden, and required steps/questions cannot be skipped.

  • This allows for a more predictable and consistent user experience, and allows managers to take courses without being able to skip pages, etc. It's also a nice way for academy-level authors to "test drive" a course.

  • Although the editing options may be hidden, the user effectively still has the same permissions. He can still see reports, and can enter Edit mode via deep-linking, etc. The "Manage Course" menu remains visible. A manager can still upgrade/downgrade his role in the course at any time.


 Page and Portal Editor

  • Widgets and content blocks can now be rearranged with drag-n-drop.

  • New content can now be added at the desired position - above or below existing blocks.

  • Text Block widget on portals can now (optionally) have a title and a user-selectable box color.

  • More than one Attachments-blocks can now be added to a page.

 
Various changes

  • Stock Photo search and Icon Builder now remember your last search (during the session).

  • Conversations List has a new look.

  • DeepL is our new translation engine, replacing Google Translate.

  • Available seats are now shown on course cards.
