Build 110 Release Notes

Fixes

• Bento Conditional Blocks Options Missing
  Administrators may have encountered an issue where Conditional Blocks Bento options, including "When there are no results, show...", were not visible. We have addressed this and conditional options have been restored.
  
  

• Filter Vocabularies Permissions
  Administrators were unable to view or manage filter vocabulary lists for specific index pages and collections. To address this, we conducted a thorough analysis and implemented adjustments to the permission settings for Filter Vocabularies.
  
  

• Events Filters not working
  We have addressed an issue affecting anonymous (unauthenticated) users. Previously, these users were required to select and apply filters multiple times before the system recognized their choices.
  
  

• Patron Redirect Settings Not being followed
  We have identified and successfully resolved a behavior that overlooked the specified settings for redirecting patrons after a successful Single Sign-On (SSO) login.
  
  

• Searching Always returns to "Today" View
  We have addressed an issue where applying a search term in the events list caused the results to reset to the default "Today" view. Prior to this fix, when users searched for events in future months, the results would default back to the present month after applying a keyword query.

Incremental Release - Build 110.5

On January 9, 2024, we deployed an incremental release, Build 110.5, to address the following issues:

Fixes

• • HTML Code in Callouts 
    HTML tags in the Title and body sections of Callouts were not properly recognizing HTML formatting and were displaying as plain text. This issue has been addressed, and now text can be formatted using standard HTML tags as intended.

• • Favicon Display
    Previously, the custom favicons uploaded were not being displayed, and instead, the default EBSCO "E" favicon was shown. We have made adjustments to the favicon storage location and fixed the site's behavior to ensure that the correct custom favicon is now displayed as intended.

• • Font Resizer Icon Color
    The font resizer icons situated in the top header were not adhering to the color preferences set in the style editor under Top Header > Colors > Icon Color. This issue has been resolved.

• • Call to Action Buttons Behavior
    We've modified the functionality of the Call to Action buttons found in the Header. If the setting to open outbound links in a new tab is not turned on, all Call to Action (CTA) buttons will now open in the same browser tab. Conversely, when the option to open outbound links in a new tab is activated, outbound links will open in a new browser tab, while internal links will persist in opening within the same tab.

• • Add to Save List Button not appearing on Collection Items
    Despite having the option enabled in the dashboard to display the "Add to Saved List" button on the detail view for collection items, it was not appearing. This issue has been addressed, ensuring that when the button is enabled in the collection settings, it is now accessible to end users.
    
    
  • Banner Image automatically deleted
    We identified an issue where images uploaded for use on the Banner were being stored in a temporary file directory, leading to periodic removal of the images. This problem has been resolved.
    

Improvements

• • Collections Grid View (Virtual Exhibits) 
    

    In Stacks 4.0, a new Grid view has been introduced, providing the option to display any collection in either the default list view or a new grid view, reminiscent of the Virtual Exhibits layout for Collections in Stacks 3.3.0.

    
    
  • Export EDS Results to a CSV File
    End users now have the capability to export a maximum of 300 selected search result items from an EDS Search list results view.
    
    
  • Web of Science Starter API Integration
    Web of Science recently updated its API, prompting the need for this modification to ensure the continued compatibility of the Web of Science integration. The update involved transitioning to their new Starter API.
    
    
  • Scopus Search Integration
    This integration empowers a Stacks Administrator to utilize Stacks for Scopus queries, generating a Scopus Feed through the Scopus Search API. The Administrator can then incorporate this feed into a Block on a Stacks Landing Page, presenting items in descending order by date. Stacks will automatically update the feed daily, retrieving new items that meet the specified search criteria.
    
    
  • New Program Manager Role
    We've implemented a new role named Program Manager, consolidating the permission sets of both Booking Manager and Events Manager.
