Section Filtering
RDSM-33463
Do you want to find a Section but can't remember where you left it? With Section filtering, you can quickly find Sections in the main Site Structure...
...or anywhere that you can select Sections like the Edit Section screen...
...or when adding a link:
Direct Edit Enhancements
RDSM-33342
We've added several enhancements to Direct Edit, including:
- You can now see and visit the URL of the corresponding published page
- One-click save and approve
- previously there were two steps when saving and approving content in Direct Edit; now it's just one
- Save as draft
- you can now save content as a draft from Direct Edit
- Publish from Direct Edit
- previously, if you wanted to publish the page, you would have to return to the Section; now you can publish directly from Direct Edit
- Quick Toolbar on rich text
- There's now a handy Quick Toolbar that appears when you highlight text
- Google Analytics improvements
- we've improved Google Analytics' reporting
- UI enhancements
Smart default when duplicating a Content Item
RDSM-33524
When you duplicate a Content Item, the current Section will be selected in the Site Structure selection modal.
Improved current Section highlighting in the Section screen
RDSM-33608
Up to now, when you edited a Section, the Site Structure view on the left was displayed from the root Section and extended the full height of the Site Structure. Now the height is constrained, and the current Section is highlighted and in view.
Highlight duplicated Section
RDSM-33519
After you've duplicated a Section, it will be highlighted and the Site Structure will scroll to it.
Improved Form Bank Connection Statuses
RDSM-33923
To help troubleshoot Form Bank connection issues, we've improved the Form Bank configuration screen to give you a clearer idea about what's going on.
