Aurora Analytics enables you to filter data for more granular insights. You can filter based on: Roles Ranks New Topics Username Thread ID To add filters to your dashboard: Open the Account menu and select Analytics. On the dashboard page, select + Filter. Select a filter. Enter relevant values to filter. Select Add. The dashboard displays data for the selected filter. Let's look at an example of filtering data for specific roles. Assume that you want to view metrics and activities by Administrators for the "Products" category in your community for the last 30 days. To filter for this data: Change the scope to Products. Set the date range to Last 30 days. Select +Filter. Select Roles. Select Administrator from the menu. Select Add. The Dashboard displays metrics and activities by Administrators for the "Products" category for the last 30 days. Thread ID You can use this filter to view the metrics related to a particular thread or topic in your community. The Thread ID is the ID found at the end of the community URL. For example, in the below URL, "236502" is the Thread ID for a topic in the community: https://community.khoros.com/kb/supportinformation/khoros-cookies-datasheet-community-care-marketing-khoros-bot/236502 You can add this filter under Dashboard and Reports by selecting the Filter option. You can add more than one Thread ID to the filter. After you select Add, the dashboard displays the metrics for the added Thread IDs or, in other words, the topics with those Thread IDs.

Khoros Communities - Updated Release Process
Updates 13-Oct-2025: Added more details and clarified communication process To improve your experience and simplify our release process, we are updating how we handle Khoros Communities releases. This updated process will start to apply from Communities Release 25.10. What's Changing Communities will have two types of releases going ahead - Standard releases and Patch releases Standard releases happen on a regular cadence and include features and bug fixes. Opted-in customers are automatically upgraded with clear windows to change their decision throughout the process Patch releases address critical issues outside the regular release schedule and are automatically applied to all customers on the latest version Automated support tickets make it easy to manage your upgrade preferences, request immediate upgrades. Normal support tickets can be used to update your Upgrade Notification Contacts (and for all of the requests your account team is also available) Email notifications keep your Upgrade Notification Contacts informed at every stage: release notes publication, stage upgrade completion, and production upgrade completion Production releases are published as scheduled maintenances on our status page, providing real-time visibility and updates if anything changes Clear timelines provide transparency with defined windows to adjust your preferences Standard Releases We will have a standardized release process for both Aurora and Classic. In a standard release, opted-in customers will be auto-upgraded to the latest release. These releases will include features and bug fixes. Version numbers for the standard release will follow the existing version numbers. However, we will no longer be treating releases as major or minor - we will treat every release as a standard release. Throughout this process, you can manage your upgrade preferences using automated support tickets or by contacting your account team, who can assist with any of these requests. The process will begin when we publish the release notes. The release notes will announce the plan and scope of an upcoming release. After we post the release notes here on ATLAS Community, customers will be notified by email and will have six days to change their automatic upgrade preference (opt-in or opt-out). After this period, we will upgrade the stage environments. We will then open a testing window, where customers can test on their stage environments and report any issues through support tickets. Customers will have thirteen days to opt-out if needed, allowing you additional time to validate the release with your specific customizations and integrations, for example. At the end of the testing window, we will perform the upgrade in production for customers who have not opted out during this period. For both stage and production, we will use existing Maintenance windows, as we expect downtime. Production releases will also be published as scheduled maintenances on our status page, where you can find real-time updates if anything goes out of schedule or is delayed. If you are on an older version, you have the following options: Use the automated opt-in ticket to opt back into auto-upgrades (you will receive the next scheduled release) Use the automated upgrade request ticket to upgrade to the latest released version at any time Communication All email notifications for standard releases are sent to your Upgrade Notification Contacts for each instance. To add, remove, or change your Upgrade Notification Contacts, contact our support team or your account team. Release Notes Publication Email When we publish the release notes here on ATLAS Community, your Upgrade Notification Contacts will receive an email containing: Link to the release notes Your current upgrade decision (opt-in or opt-out) The upgrade timeline for this release All customers, regardless of their upgrade decision, can change their preferences at any time using the automated support tickets. Stage Upgrade Completion Email After your stage environment is successfully upgraded, your Upgrade Notification Contacts will receive an email confirming: Stage upgrade completion Your current upgrade decision (opt-in) The scheduled production upgrade date How and when you can opt-out if needed (anytime during the two-week testing window) Production Upgrade Completion Email After your production environment is successfully upgraded, your Upgrade Notification Contacts will receive a confirmation email. Example Timeline Here's a typical timeline for a standard release: Day 1: Release notes published here on ATLAS Community; Upgrade Notification Contacts receive email with release details, current upgrade decision, and timeline Days 1-6: Period to change automatic upgrade preference Day 7: Release preparation (not possible to change decision anymore) Day 8-9: Stage environments upgraded; Upgrade Notification Contacts receive email confirming stage completion, upgrade decision, and production upgrade date Days 10-22: Stage testing window (opt-out available anytime during this period) Day 23: Release preparation (not possible to change decision anymore) Day 24-25: Production upgrade for opted-in customers; Upgrade Notification Contacts receive confirmation email Patch Releases Patch releases address critical issues outside the regular release schedule. These include security vulnerabilities, bugs affecting multiple customers, or issues impacting release stability. Patches are automatically applied to all customers on the latest version and cannot be opted out of due to their critical nature. Our team will publish the release notes, notify customers, and apply patches in a three-day window. Upgrade Notification Contacts will receive email notification when patch release notes are published. Version numbering for patch releases will follow <standard release version number>.<number>, where number will be incremented for each patch and reset after a particular standard version. As an example, the first patch after 25.8 will be numbered 25.8.1, the second patch as 25.8.2 and so on. However, the first patch applied after 25.9 will be 25.9.1. We will use Change windows for non-downtime needs and maintenance windows timeslots for downtime needs. Patch releases will also be published as scheduled maintenances on our status page, where you can find real-time updates if anything changes. If a patch applies to customers on an older version, your account team will reach out to coordinate the upgrade. Tickets We provide two types of support tickets to help you manage your upgrades: Automated Support Tickets Opt-in ticket: For opted-out customers who want to opt back in for automatic upgrades Opt-out ticket: For customers who want to opt out of automatic upgrades Upgrade request ticket: To upgrade to the latest version immediately at any time For more information on managing your instance upgrade settings, see How to Manage Instance Upgrade Settings with the AI assistant. Regular Support Tickets Manage Upgrade Notification Contacts ticket: To add, remove, or change contacts who receive upgrade notifications [Khoros Classic can also use this guide] Use these to enquire about a release, report bugs, or any issues encountered during testing or in your environment: How to Make the Best Use of the Khoros AI Support Agent. You can go to our product-specific support portal here: Khoros Community Classic and Khoros Community Aurora. What to expect next Moving forward, based on feedback on the new release process, we will also be reviewing the cadence of releases, which is right now monthly. The intent is to provide high-quality releases, minimizing customer disruptions, and allowing customers time to provide feedback and adjust.Khoros Communities 25.9 - Release Notes
