For the November update, we have focused on productivity: how can we make Agility users more efficient?  We took a bunch of requests and put them into the product.  This will be a recurring theme in our iterations as we strive to integrate new features, productivity enhancements and other backend or performance enhancements into the system.

Page Copy

You can now make a copy of any page in the system.  Pretty simple, huh?  Yea, it is.  But it doesn’t just copy the page itself – all of the modules and their linked content views are also copied over, and in every language as well.  Imagine how much time that will save if you need to copy a complex module with a linked content list to another page and only change a few small properties or items – just copy the whole page and rename the copy!

Improved Recent Changes Report

The recent changes report now shows all Pages, Shared Content, Modules, and Linked Content that has been changed in the system.  Also, you can publish right from that list.  What this means is that you can look at all the changes for the last few days and publish anything that is ready to go without having to navigate to the individual areas of the site.  To make this even easier, we’ve added a new status that you can report on, “Pending Release”, which will allow you to show only the pages that are Approved (if they require approval) or have merely change (if they don’t require approval).

Some Bug Fixes

• Timed release
  • An issue was fixed where an item that had a Release Date that had not yet expired was republished with a new Release Date would not appear on the second release date.
• Deleting shared content views
  • An issue was fixed where a shared content view that had been used on a page that was subsequently deleted could not itself be deleted.
• F5/Refresh in Firefox
  • Previously to this release, pressing F5 (or Refresh) in Firefox would result in a Javascript error.  The workaround to this was using ctrl-F5 or ctrl-Refresh.  This has been fixed.
