[nwhitney]

EthosCE Version 7.82 was released to test sites on 7/11/24 and will move to production sites on 7/17/24. For a full list of changes, please review the changelog.

This month’s release includes updated functionality that allows Cadmium Staff to configure which search facets display in the catalog, several bug fixes, including resolving an issue with operators in web services, resolving an incorrect display of apostrophes in ICS files, and correcting an issue displaying custom dates in Looker, and a security update to our web services.

Additions

• We have added support for fully customizable and configurable catalog facets, which allows Cadmium staff to select which course fields will display as search facets on the catalog, and allow learners to find the educational content they need more easily.
• If you would like adjustments made to your catalog facets, please open up a support ticket.

  • 

  • This update also supports custom course fields, and allows them to be search facets as well.

  • NOTE: EthosCE catalog settings do not apply on test, and will not be visible until EthosCE 7.82 is deployed to your production sites on 7/17/2024.

Fixes

• Fixed an issue with operators used in webservices.

  • We have resolved an issue where adding an operator parameter (e.g., “>”, “>=”, “<”, “<=”, “=”, “<>”, etc.) to a web service call could cause an error message response. After resolving this issue, the above operators work as expected.

• Fixed an issue where calendar invites contained incorrect characters.

  • We have resolved an issue where an apostrophe character would not display as expected in ICS files uploaded to Google or Yahoo! Calendars.

• Fixed an issue where timestamps for custom dates were displaying incorrectly in Looker on some sites.

  • We have resolved an issue that was causing custom date fields to display incorrectly in Looker reports.

Security Updates

• Updated RESTful web services module.
  • We have updated EthosCE to the most recent version of the RESTful web services module, ensuring the latest security and performance updates are in place in EthosCE.
