Highlights
Speaker Pages Now Available EVENTS
The Speaker Pages feature is now accessible in Site Admin under Content. This functionality allows site admins to create and manage speaker profiles, including images, bios, and contact information. The speaker content can be integrated into grids and rotators through PageBuilder, enhancing the overall user experience. This release represents the initial iteration of the speaker feature, with further updates and enhancements anticipated in the future. v2.0.10 07/11
Optimized Iframe Size for SCORM Learning Packages LEARNING
A notable enhancement has been made to the iframe size for SCORM learning packages, expanding it to full width while preserving a 16:9 aspect ratio. This adjustment ensures that the learning content is presented optimally, offering a more immersive and user-friendly experience. To maintain accessibility, if the screen size makes the iframe taller than the available space minus the header, it will be capped at that height. This change guarantees that content remains fully visible and accessible without unnecessary scrolling. v2.0.10 07/11
