Release notes for web applications

SiteBuilder 2.446 released

We released SiteBuilder 2.446 on Tuesday 25^th August 2020. In this version:

We improved the loading speed of the 'Multiple Researcher Profiles' page type.
We made a couple of accessibility improvements:
- We added HTML labels to buttons which did not already have them, making their purpose clearer to users of screen reader software.
- On calendar pages, it's now possible to use a keyboard to select the + symbol to create an event on the selected date.
We fixed a bug that affected PDFs of payment form submissions. When the description of the payment option selected contains a colon (:), the description now appears in the PDF. Previously, the amount associated with the option appeared in place of the description.
We fixed a bug that prevented the editing of forwarding pages.

We released Tabula 2020.8.3 on Thursday 20^th August 2020. In this version:

We added checkboxes to the 'Calculate module marks' page in Marks Management. You can use these to select which students you want to record module marks for.
When you import small groups from Syllabus+, the event type of the small group set created now matches the type in Syllabus+, where possible. Previously, only the event type 'seminar' was matched, and the type 'workshop' used for all other imported group sets. The event type is listed after the module code on the main Small Groups page, for example 'PSP101 // Labs'.

We released Tabula 2020.8.2 on Wednesday 12^th August 2020. In this version:

You can now batch together notifications of the same type to reduce the number of individual emails and My Warwick alerts you receive. When you enable this option, the notifications are grouped together and sent as summary emails or alerts at the time interval you choose.
PGT students are now able to see the award for their course on the Modules page of their profile.
On the 'Generate resits' page for a module, any resits added directly to SITS are now also shown.
Where an assignment has a student on it via more than one linked assessment component, you now see a warning if you try to upload the marks to SITS. This is to avoid a student's mark for a single assignment being uploaded to more than one assessment component.

We released Tabula 2020.8.1 on Wednesday 5^th August 2020. In this version:

We improved the way Tabula handles resits and further first sits:
- When the assessment type or weighting has changed, the correct details are now shown on the Modules page of the student's profile.
- Where a further first sit has a weighting of 100%, the 'Calculate module marks' page now uses the mark for this as the module mark. On the page, the further first sit mark is labelled '100%' and the columns for the original assessments display 'N/A'.
- When the mark for a resit is lower than the original mark for a component, the original mark is now used to calculate the module mark.
When you record a meeting with more than one tutee / supervisee, the pop-up box for this now states the number of students. This number was already stated in the pop-up for scheduling such a meeting.
We fixed a bug that caused marking workflows from previous academic years to be available when editing an assignment. The drop-down list of workflows you see now only includes those from the current academic year.

We released SiteBuilder 2.445 on Tuesday 4^th August 2020. In this version:

We made some accessibility improvements:
- We replaced the picker for selecting a date and/or time on calendar and resource booking pages. The new version is accessible to people using just a keyboard.
- We made the search function on calendar pages easier to use with just a keyboard. When you select the search button, your cursor now appears in the pop-up search box without you having to <Tab> into it.
When you use the visual editor to insert an 'Image with text', you can now add HTML to the text between the [image-with-text] tags via the <html> button. Previously, any HTML between these tags was automatically removed when the page was published.
We fixed the tag picker used to specify which items should appear on 'News filter' and 'Calendar filter' pages when the source is a composite news or composite calendar page.
We fixed a bug that prevented some users from creating new topics on forum pages.
