Enhancement

Value Analytics survey export

The Value Analytics survey questions and the corresponding answers from users were previously mapped to IDs and made available in the survey export. With this enhancement, if you so choose, the text of the questions and answers can be exported, instead of the IDs. 

Enablement

Contact Support to have this enabled for your community.

Filter anonymous user traffic in Community Analytics

Community analytics users can now filter out anonymous user traffic from the community traffic metrics. Just set the User Name filter to Anonymous to filter out anonymous traffic.

Announcement

As part of our work at Khoros to continuously improve the security of our applications, we will be rolling out 'Shield Advanced & Additional Rate Limiting' for all of our customers soon.

In addition to the network and transport layer protections that come with AWS Shield Standard, AWS Shield Advanced provides 

  • detection and mitigation against large and sophisticated DDoS(distributed denial-of-service) attacks
  • near real-time visibility into attack and 
  • integration with AWS WAF

Rate limiting protects your community and makes it more reliable when there is a spike in requests from a bad actor or a legitimate user who is intentionally or unintentionally trying to overwhelm the servers.

You found it! We fixed it!

General Fixes

  • You can remove columns in analytics reports using Settings > Manage Columns. However, users were then not able to add the removed columns back to the reports. This issue has been resolved now.

  • The issue where the ‘from/to’ fields in Private Messages were not searched for the entered username is now resolved.

  • After creating an event, if the global language setting was changed, the Featured Guest component was not getting translated. This issue has been resolved.

  • Anonymous users were able to open the unpublished Blog and TKB drafts through URLs. This issue has been fixed.

  • When anonymous users tried to submit a post and were prompted to sign in, an exception error occurred during the sign-in process, and the post was not submitted. This issue has been fixed, and the error no longer appears..

  • When trying to add a Featured Guest to an Event, if the auto-suggest drop-down box didn’t show the username of the guest, users were unable to add the guest to the event. This issue has been fixed.

  • Previously, authors and admins were not able to view the original image in a post if the image was pending moderation. We have fixed this issue. 

  • While managing the role-restricted custom avatar collections via the SDK, a validation error used to occur. This is now fixed, and the user is successfully able to push new role-based avatars via SDK plugin without any errors.

  • Previously, image metadata was stripped from any resized version of an image uploaded in a post . We have fixed this issue, and metadata is now retained after the image is resized.

  • There was an issue with the video metrics being displayed in the admin metrics and in the video details page for a member. This issue is now fixed, and the correct metric values are displayed.

  • Previously, while running a catalog sync(via XML file) with one or more of its products deleted, it threw errors. This issue is now fixed. The catalog sync runs successfully and restores the deleted products.

Accessibility fixes

  • Previously, list items present in the Show user options menu button were not accessible by Up-Down arrow key even though they were defined under "List" as "List items". We have fixed this issue. 

  • Color contrast accessibility specifications are now met for disabled menu items and disabled state of pagination. 

  • Images present on a page are now accessible through a keyboard.

  • Certain accessibility-related attributes for pagination were not defined in a way that would enable a screen reader to announce the current page information. This issue is now fixed.

  • The Compose button on the Private Messages page is now visible in high contrast white mode.

  • Previously, the information announced by a screen reader when the focus was on the number of kudos was not descriptive enough. This issue is now fixed..
