Version 1.14

Release date: September 27, 2021

New and updated functionality

Improvements to the user and admin experience.

Private question submission

These two options can be turned on or off for individual sessions:

Moderate questions before making them public
With this option turned on, attendees can’t see submitted questions until moderators post them.
Documentation: Manage Q&A

Added an Allow Q&A Moderation toggle to the session front-end tools.
Added new Submitted and Posted sections in the Q&A tab to allow question moderation. Speakers, moderators, and 99 users can see both sections. Attendees can only see questions in the Posted section.
Consolidated moderator controls within new Submitted and Posted sections in the Q&A tab.
Added a new toast notification to alert attendees their question was submitted.

Allow attendees to ask anonymous questions
With this option turned on, attendees can ask a question without displaying their user information.

Added an Allow Anonymous questions toggle to the session front-end tools.
Added a checkbox to allow attendees to optionally designate a question as anonymous.

Session moderation

Added new confirmation modal for the Stop All workflow, so that moderators know what the action will do to speakers.
Now allowing a session to remain active beyond its scheduled time if a moderator is still streaming.
Anchored moderator breakout control buttons so they no longer scroll up with the page or block session chat.
HIDE_MODERATOR_BUTTON_AFTER_BREAKOUT config now set to false by default on new sites.

Session video services

Added a check for broadcast list when creating or getting a broadcast. This ensures that users are able to automatically reconnect to the stream if the broadcast stops and then starts again, rather than having to refresh.
Added option to use integrated AWS Interactive Video Service Player for streaming.

Session archive

Added the ability to download a session archive independently from a separate tab, rather than overwriting the current page.

Hybrid events

Added In-Person Only sessions to the schedule page and the external schedule widget. These sessions have no video stream, but people at the in-person event can attend.

Analytics

Activity Log report will now include all user tags, along with the tag type name.
Added the ability to view course participation and completion analytics at the program level. This lets you track progress across multiple courses at once.

CME

Created the ability to call a customer CE/CME endpoint when awarding CE.
Added the ability to configure the CME Claim action to direct to an external endpoint.

Other configurations

Added the ability to link to an external site from the sub navigation bar.
Added the ability to change the leaderboard title text: Leaderboard
Added the ability to change the text of the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy acceptance: I agree to the Terms Of Service and the Privacy Policy.
