What's a release?
Simply put, a release is a package of software updates consisting of new features and bug fixes along with new content. On CCL Community, we'll release updates every other week.New Features
- Search Filters. A major upgrade to the CCL Community search feature allows for filtering results by category and sorting by relevance and date. How would a member take advantage of the filters and sorting options? Say you want to find all of the training topics associated with The Energy Innovation Act.
- Enter "energy innovation act" in the search field.
- Select the "Training topic" filter
- See 12 results!
- You can sort the results by those pages that are newest or oldest online.
- Video embeds. Video sharing on CCL Community is now limited to embedding videos from a file sharing service like YouTube or Vimeo. When you click to add a video on your group's video page or your individual videos page you will be asked to copy/paste the video URL or the video's embed code into the new window, then follow the instructions from this FAQ on sharing files with your group.
Bug Fixes
- Group Email Fix. Fixed a bug where group email was only being delivered to a member's CCLCommunity inbox vs to both the member's personal email and their CCL Community inbox.
