    New Features & Enhancements

    Enhanced Survey Feature
    - The survey feature has been updated to allow invitations to take surveys to be sent out to a list of email addresses of people who are not members of the Orbius community. The invitation emails contain an invitation code that ensures that each response to the survey can be matched to the person who submitted it and that each person can only participate in a survey one time. The surveys feature can now be added by using the 'Add New Feature' link instead of through the manage community area.

    Increased Member Privacy - The content within a member's page in a community is only visible to other members of the community by default, and non-members see the access denied page if they try to view a member's page. However on the access denied page the member's name and picture are visible, so their name can be indexed by search engines, which is a privacy concern for many users. All information about the member has been removed from the access denied page shown when an unauthenticated user tries to view their page. This should prevent members' names from being indexed by search engines unless they specifically choose to have their member page be public.

    Version 2.4.2112 was one of many small patch releases that were put in place over the past few weeks to address bugs and smaller usability issues.

    New Features & Enhancements

    New SEO Options - Some new options were added to the 'Name, Icon, & Description' page within the manage community area to allow for better search engine optimization (SEO). You can now set the title of your community separately from the name so that search engines can index a longer, more descriptive title. In addition you can now also add search keywords that will be placed within the HTML code of the page and picked up by search engines.

    Consolidated Administration Links - The links under the administration section of the toolbox on the right hand side of all communities have been consolidated into manage community and manage group drop down lists. This greatly reduces the amount of space these links occupy on each page as well as provides easier access to some of the more commonly used management features.

    Search Added to Manage Members Page - A member search box was added to the manage members page in the manage community area to allow community owners to find specific members easily without having to page through a long list.

    Bug Fixes
    1. When someone encounters a no-access page and then logs in, they will now be properly redirected to the page they were initially trying to view.
    2. The advanced search option should now work correctly in the group members page.
    3. Adding attachments to text blocks within a library page should no longer create a bad link on the library homepage.
    4. A user's email address will now be shown next to their name when they request membership in a community so that the community owner can contact them if necessary.
