2.22.0 Release Notes

over 3 years ago by Mark Hopkins

August 13, 2021

Summary

The 2.22.0 release of AnswerHub contains new features and maintenance updates

New Features

Enhanced Reputation point configurability - Updates to the admin page for User Engagement -> Reputation Gains / Losses. The enhanced design increases the number of user actions that can be configured for reputation point gains to encourage constructive behaviors such as asking questions, answering questions, commenting, editing and updating content, responding when asked to answer as an expert, publishing articles and contributing ideas. All current reputation point value settings will be retained and new setting values default to zero so existing communities can adopt the feature transparently. Community managers / admins can then updates values to align with their community strategy. View the updated documentation for this feature

In-App Notifications - New feature that allows users to configured notifications to be provided within AnswerHub alongside or in place of email notifications. This feature has been in BETA and is being deployed as an extended BETA in a phased rollout. The feature will be available for all clients on their staging sites and will be made available on production sites over the coming weeks. Client Success Managers will contact clients to demo the feature and request deployment. During this extended BETA we are continuing to review and optimize this feature. View the updated documentation for this feature.
