Member Experience
Email notifications: Badges
In the New Follow (Digest) email notification, members now receive updates related to earning new badges.
Members can adjust their email notification preferences for Badges. Open the Account menu and go to My Settings > Follows and Notifications. Below Email Notifications, the I earn a new badge setting is now available.
To learn more about email notification preferences, see Manage Follow and Notification preferences for your account.
Administrator Experience
Close Account
In this release, we’ve enhanced the Close Account feature. Administrators can now:
- Use the username to close a member’s account directly from the community’s admin panel.
- Use an anonymous user’s email address to delete their data from the community database, ensuring data privacy and compliance.
Learn more about the Close Account feature.
OAuth/OIDC self-service support
With the release of 24.3, we are offering OAuth 2.0/OIDC self-service support in the Aurora admin area. To access settings related to this setup, go to Settings > System > Account > OIDC/OAuth Providers. From here, you can enter provider, authorization, and token information; manage JWT options; enter user and logout information; and manage advanced options related to your setup.
For detailed information about setting up OIDC/OAuth, see About Aurora OIDC/OAuth2.0 SSO and Aurora OpenID Connect/OAuth 2.0 setting descriptions.
Revoke Badges
In version 24.2, we released the Badges feature. With the release of 24.3, we have added the ability for admins to revoke badges that were granted to members.
To revoke a badge:
- Go to the Member Profile of the member whose badge you want to revoke.
- At the top right of the page, click View All Badges.
- At the top right of the member badges screen, open the Settings menu.
- Click Manage Badges.
- Hover your cursor over the right side of the row of the badge you want to revoke.
- When the button appears, click Revoke.
Revoked badges remain in the list on the Manage Badges window but are grayed out and displayed with a date indicator of when the badge was revoked.
If you revoked a badge by mistake, you can hover your cursor over the right side of the revoked badge in the list and click Re-Grant.
See Revoke a badge. For more information about the Badges feature, see About Badges and Badge Sets.
Analytics: Events by type widget
In this release, we have added a new widget to the Events Detail dashboard (Options menu > Analytics > Dashboard > Events Details). This widget shows engagement on events based on the event type (In-person, Online, and Hybrid).
Developer Experience
Revoke Badges
In the last release, we released the Badges feature. In this release, only administrators can revoke badges that were granted to the members.
