Release v1.50 brings the functionality to convert old blocks to the new ones, a new admin login page looking more like Planet4 and a couple of bug fixes and design and UX improvements.

Release v1.50 (17/4/2019)

Design and UX Improvements 🎩

  • PLANET-3371 – Admin login page visual customization
    •  The admin login page has a new design to look a little bit more like Planet4.
  • PLANET-3380 – Deliver the “convert old blocks to new blocks” as admin functionality
    • An admin button have been created in the menu – there, an administrator of the P4 site can click on a button that will replace all old blocks with the new ones. More details on how to update the old blocks with the new one can be found here.

Bug Fixes 🐛

  • PLANET-3382 – Timeline block (Outlandish) – ‘Start at end’ checkbox not working 
    • Ticking or unticking the ‘Start at end’ checkbox in the backend did not change anything in the frontend. Correct behaviour would mean that checking the checkbox would make the last item in the spreadsheet/timeline to be visible by default. This has now been fixed and working as it should.
  • PLANET-3389 – Carousel header is truncating at 30 chars instead of 32
    • Carousel header text was being cut at 30 characters instead of 32. This has been fixed now.
  • PLANET-3412 – #378159 Languague selection vertical bars
    • Release v1.49 pushed a design flaw in the language section for the Belgium site which is bilingual. There were two stripes in the language instead of one – this has been fixed and the old design is back.
  • PLANET-3417 – Take Action card is not following scrolling in some Posts.
    • In some cases the Take Action card seen inside posts (wherever is set) is not following while scrolling down. This has been fixed and the take action card is scrolling down in posts, together with the user scrolling down the page.
  • PLANET-3430 – Change spelling of Slovenia in country selector

    • The name for the Slovenian NRO had to be changed from Slovenjia to Sloveija.
