Presentation   2020   March

March

At Foliotek, we work hard to provide the best assessment and portfolio software possible.  To do that, we make changes every week.  Sometimes we fix things that don't work, other times we release new features to improve your experience.  Below you will find a description of the changes we have made this month.

 

3.30.2020

What's new

We released some new features and upgrades this week:

  • Nothing new this week.

What we fixed

These issues were fixed this past week:

  • The option to make a community member a moderator of the community was not working properly.
  • Communities that had a large number of members (over 1,000) would load the Members tab very slowly and the community would become unusable.  Communities with more than 1,000 users will now utilize a search box to locate members of the community.

Community Member Search

  • In some situations, courses that had student-submitted evaluations attached to them were not providing the the students with submission links.
  • The Evaluation report had an issue with the report title if the 'view details' link was used for one of the units in the report.

What we're working on

Watch for these items to be released in the next few weeks:

  • Nothing close enough to mention at this time.

3.23.2020

What's new

We released some new features and upgrades this week:

  • Nothing new this week.

What we fixed

These issues were fixed this past week:

  • New faculty accounts were not given immediate access to moderate communities they were a part of.  This issue was corrected and new faculty members should now be able to moderate their communities.
  • The Files area in Foliotek Presentation accounts could break if a user improperly parented their folders.  It is now impossible to move a folder into a folder that has been placed inside of it.
  • Using Firefox, a user could not scroll down to see the last row of communities available when attempting to share a portfolio in a community.
  • For moderators, the community visibility setting would show 'public' as the setting even though a different setting had been selected and was being applied to the community.

Community Visibility Setting

  • Public community URLs were only showing one member of the community on the Members tab.  The portfolio and project tabs were working correctly.

What we're working on

Watch for these items to be released in the next few weeks:

  • Nothing close enough to mention at this time.

3.16.2020

What's new

We released some new features and upgrades this week:

  • An update was made to the way certain cookies are handled in Foliotek.
  • We made improvements to the way communities are created.
  • The portfolio management screen will now load the portfolios on the page when the user scrolls down to see them.  Before all portfolios on the page were loaded when the page opened, slowing down the load time.  This page should load faster now.
  • The process for sharing a portfolio in a community was optimized.

What we fixed

These issues were fixed this past week:

  • An issue was corrected for some broken logo images.

What's new

We released some new features and upgrades this week:

  • Nothing new this week.

What we fixed

These issues were fixed this past week:

  • Some community background image URLs were broken which prevented users in those communities from sharing portfolios in the community.
  • The To-Do list in Foliotek Assessment accounts was not immediately returning unchecked completed items to the active To-Do list.
  • Users were unable to select a file that already existed in their Files area as a new Profile image on the ID page.
  • Users who attempt to upload a file into the Presentation Files area that exceeds their available storage space will now receive a warning message.
  • The Presentation Files area was optimized to increase the loading speed.
  • Users who attempt to remove their currently used profile or background image from their Files area will see a warning that lets them know those files cannot be removed.

What's new

We released some new features and upgrades this week:

  • Nothing new this week.

What we fixed

These issues were fixed this past week:

  • Documents in presentation portfolios were all being loaded at the same time.  If several were used in a portfolio, it would cause a timeout error for the user.  Now document gizmos will load sequentially from top to bottom of the portfolio page.
  • Previewing evaluations by students, faculty, or administrators would cause an error.
