SiteBuilder release notes

We released SiteBuilder 2.443 on Monday 13^th July 2020. In this version, to make podcast pages more accessible, we:

• Added a prompt to provide a link to a transcript on the 'Create new podcast episode' page.
• Provided a cut-down version of the visual editor in the description box on this page to make it easier to add a link.
• Added the ability to edit the description of an existing podcast episode.

We released SiteBuilder 2.442 on Tuesday 7^th July 2020. In this version:

• We replaced the Flash-based charts on the 'Stats' tab in SiteBuilder with a table that enables you to toggle the inclusion of the following information:
  • User type (staff, student, other, logged out)
  • User location (campus residence, campus other, off campus)
  • The figures in the above categories as percentages of the total
• We also replaced the Flash-based charts that were available on the go.warwick 'My redirects' tab with tables of figures. You can see these when you select a figure in the 'Hits in last
  [7 d. | 6 w. | 6 m.]' column. These changes were made due to Adobe's plan to stop supporting Flash by the end of 2020, and due to the phasing out of Flash support within web browsers.
• We made more accessibility improvements, for example embedded news and calendar feeds are now easier to navigate using screen reader software.
• We fixed a bug that affected resource booking pages: to choose a resource other than the first one, users had to select it twice.

We released SiteBuilder 2.441 on Tuesday 30^th June 2020. In this version:

• We made some more accessibility improvements:
  • Sortable tables are now easier to use with screen reader software.
  • We made it easier to use popups, such as those for making resource bookings, with just a keyboard. When you <Tab> through the options and reach the last one you now cycle round to the first, rather than leaving the popup.
• Pages with a long link caption and restricted permissions now appear in the local navigation with an ellipsis and the usual padlock icon at the end of the caption, rather than "Restricted...".
• On 'Researcher Profile' and 'Multiple Researcher Profiles' pages, lists of more than 20 authors are now truncated. An 'et al' link is added, which opens a popup containing the full list.

We released SiteBuilder 2.440 on Wednesday 24^th June 2020. In this version:

• We made further accessibility improvements, including:
  • When you add a maths equation to a page, you are now prompted to provide a human-readable version for people using screen reader software.
  • It is now easier to navigate the SiteBuilder edit screen using only a keyboard.
• Forms set to allow users to make one submission that can't be changed later, and to go to another page after submission, now inform users that they can't submit more than once. Previously, the form took users to the specified page without informing them.
• On a 'Multiple Researcher Profiles' page, if more than one researcher is an author of a given paper, the paper is only listed once.
• We began the process of retiring older versions of the visual editor. For the time being, this means they no longer appear among the dropdown options for editing a page.

We released SiteBuilder 2.439 on Wednesday 17^th June 2020. In this version we made some accessibility improvements, including to the icons used for links. Users of screen reader software will now hear information about these icons.
