Foliotek offices and support will be closed on Wednesday, January 1st.

What's new

We released some new features and upgrades this week:

  • Administrators and moderators will now have a 'remove formatting' button when adding text areas or questions to project templates.  This button will remove formatting from text that is pasted in from outside sources, such as Word.
  • Several new features were added to Presentation portfolios.  Users can add a horizontal line to separate text on a page.  Documents added inline will now display the entire document on the page, rather than a screenshot.  Audio files placed in a portfolio page will no longer need to be downloaded to be played.  Alternate Text can now been added to images placed in a portfolio.

What we fixed

These issues were fixed this past week:

  • Users were unable to connect with Acclaim in order to add earned badges to Foliotek.
  • Some adjustments were made to the Time on Task feature of the Badge report.
  • Instructors who clicked on the template preview link for a deep linked assignment would receive an error.

What's new

We released some new features and upgrades this week:

  • Nothing new this week.

What we fixed

These issues were fixed this past week:

  • We corrected a couple of issues with ID page background images.  If the background image was resized in the editor it could cause the background image to turn completely white and may have prevented the editor from loading in the future.
  • The screenshot of the ID page on the Dashboard was not fully displaying the ID page.  For some users, the content block was missing in that preview.

ID Page Dashboard Preview

  • Two more minor issues were fixed for menu to access different areas of Foliotek Presentation on mobile devices.
  • The Badge Report, available to community moderators, was showing some duplicate options when selecting a badge to report on.  These duplicates have been removed.
  • Some instructors were getting an error when clicking the 'view template' link from inside an assignment in their course management system.
  • Another commuinty moderator report, the User Activity report, was listing some non-badge items in the Materials area.

What we're working on

Watch for these items to be released in the next few weeks:

  • Some useful options are being added to the ePortfolio editor in Foliotek Presentation.
