The Read More button on the Articles block was oddly in the wrong place and it’s finally been moved to it’s proper home — at the bottom of the list where it belongs. We also enlarged the Twitter cards — no more tiny tweets!

New features / improvements..

  • PLANET-2162 – Articles block: move Read More button
    • The button has been moved from the top right of the block down to the lower left (to be better aligned with 4 Column and Take Action blocks). The built in behaviour will remain as is (directs to Search results), for now. When we have more resources this button will likely change to a “Load More” to be even more inline with the other blocks.
  • PLANET-2246 – GPI Media Library UX: Move Loading symbol to the top of the panel
    • Not having the loading symbol front and centre was leaving Webbies with the impression that nothing was happening in the backend. Hopefully having the loading symbol being more prominent will assuage those concerns.
  • PLANET-2377 – Ol, ul, td’s should be Lora
    • Ordered/unordered list items and table cells will use the correct font from now on.
  • PLANET-2387 – Open Graph Markup: edit Twitter card
    • Twitter cards have been super-sized! They used to look like this:

      now they look like this:
  • PLANET-2408 – Implement security patch for unpatched WP security issue (June 2018)
    • An unpatched WP security issue was made public. A patch was put in place on our own theme’s functions.php file (aka, without touching wordpress).

Bug Fixes, always… 

  • PLANET-2386 – French Canadian site: Submenu block: not displaying special characters properly
    • The Submenu block on the Canadian French site was not properly rendering accents.
  • PLANET-1977 – Greek site: Opening PDF documents redirects to Act page
    • When the user clicked on a PDF from the Search page they were redirected to the Act page. Crazy! This has been fixed.
  • PLANET-2350 – Dutch site: Tag pages don’t include the publications block
    • Not all NROs are using Post/Press Release/Publication to describe their Post types and/or are not using these terms in English. The fix here has introduced a new functionality for Tags — the Admin now has more control over which type of Post content to display in the Column block that appears on the Tag Page.
  • PLANET-2245 – Media Library Integration: Alt tag not pre-filled on Page
    • The Alt field was not being auto-populated when the Webbie added a new image from the GPI Media Library to the WP Media Library.
  • PLANET-2394 – Fix google login cookie hook parameters
    • If ‘Enforce Cookies Policy’ is enabled in P4 settings and user has not accepted cookies, then wordpress_google_login cookie won’t be set in user’s browser.
  • PLANET-2399 – Take action cards: card modifies height when hovering over on desktop
    • When a user hovers over a card with ‘excessive’ text in the Title and/or Excerpt, the height of the card was shifting down. Besides limiting a bit more the allowed text length we also did a small css fix to enforce the same height in any case.
