Fixes and Improvements

Applications + Decisions

  • Improved

    • Added a backend filter to remove decisions from deactivated user accounts in the All Decisions listing, ensuring the list only displays decisions requiring processing; decisions remain accessible from user profiles, and deactivated users are reactivated if they submit new applications, allowing future decisions to appear as expected.

    • Updated PSAT test score validations to enforce the following ranges: Composite Score (320-1520), Math (160-760), and Evidence-Based Reading and Writing (160-760).

    • Added an auto-populate feature for the Country field when using the search function to select a high school.

  • Fixed

    • Resolved an issue where decision criteria scores appeared on the front end but were not saved, preventing users from editing the decision criteria.

    • Resolved an issue where text in the Info Requests section of the Applications profile card sometimes overlapped.

    • Resolved an issue where the decision page retained the original scroll position instead of opening at the top when accessed from a student’s applications card.

    • Resolved an issue where generating a document download from a student record application would fail with an “Unable to generate document” error.

Appointments

  • Improved

    • Added validation to the appointment booking URL slug field to prevent spaces, resolving related issues.

  • Fixed

    • Resolved an issue where calendar availability was displayed as not available.

BoltAI

  • Fixed

    • Resolved an issue where Knowledge Base category filters at the assistant level were not being recognized.

    • Resolved an issue where Bolt Assistant would repeat a student’s input instead of generating a proper response in certain conversations.

Campaigns

  • Improved

    • Added functionality to transfer the alt text of an image from the media manager when adding images to Campaigns.

  • Fixed

    • Resolved an issue where the CTA button in a campaign occasionally did not function in Outlook.

Conversations

  • Improved

    • Added an ARIA label to the messenger widget bubble for “Open Live Chat” to improve accessibility.

    • Adjusted the placement of the Messenger Settings card to appear below the Assistants card, ensuring consistency with the Email and SMS settings cards.

    • Updated in-app calling transcription to display “The recording is currently unavailable” after 8 hours instead of 24 hours if no transcription is generated.

  • Fixed

    • Resolved an issue where the first conversation remained highlighted on the Conversations profile card after selecting a different conversation.

    • Resolved an issue where spaces in file names of downloaded documents from the Documents Bin caused errors when attaching and sending them via a conversation.

Data + Insights

  • Improved

    • Enhanced the Sources profile card by exposing UTM properties for imported web sources, improving data visibility.

    • Updated the Sources (All Properties) filter to include additional UTM property options: “Properties - UTM Medium,” “Properties - UTM Campaign,” and “Properties - UTM Content."

    • Enhanced user merging via import to retain import history for merged users.

    • Added star mapping support for user-milestones-* fields.

    • Added the relationship option, spouse, to the [SYS] Emergency Contact Relationship data source.

    • Added a global identity type for Advansys.

    • Added a global identity type for PeopleSoft.

    • Added the ability to map to the user-citizenship-country-second field in Import + Export.

    • Expanded the scope limit for columns during import from 19 positions to 99.

  • Fixed

    • Resolved an issue where document imports via index were not always assigned to the correct contact due to case-sensitive email matching, now matching emails regardless of capitalization.

    • Resolved a bug where “Available For” properties in Campus data sources were not importing correctly, causing them to appear in exports but not on the “Available For” screen.

Events

  • Fixed

    • Resolved an issue where event message emails were not sending, previewing, or appearing in the activity of registered students, and only the SMS was sent when attempting to send a preview message.

Forms

Microsites

Pages

  • Fixed

    • Resolved an issue where Heading 1 text in Pages did not scale properly on mobile devices if the text was too long.

    • Resolved an issue preventing the reset of default form options on forms.

People

  • Improved

    • Removed the “Payment successful” property filter from Forms > Paid Form filter as it was unnecessary.

    • Improved the contact profile traits section to display active degrees as Name (Code) instead of only the code.

    • Added a validation error message to ensure correct phone number entry on family member records.

Settings

  • Improved

    • Updated the button placement in the MFA confirmation code modal, switching “Confirm” to the right and “Cancel” to the left.

    • Added a feature to MFA that enforces a 60-second wait after 10 incorrect code attempts to enhance security and prevent automated misuse.

  • Fixed

    • Resolved an issue where the settings menu was not visible on mobile devices.

StudentHub

  • Fixed

    • Resolved an issue where “Upcoming Appointments” still appeared under “My Network” in StudentHub even when the Appointments module was disabled.

Surveys

Tasks

  • Fixed

    • Resolved an issue preventing the creation or editing of a task template without an ‘assigned to’ value despite the field being optional.

Workflows + Rules

  • Fixed

    • Resolved an issue where the Workflows profile card incorrectly displayed “No Trigger” despite a trigger enrolling the user.
