New features in 3.5.0.beta7

\n

Smart link editing in the composer

\n

As part of the ongoing development of the new composer, we have added a floating toolbar to inline links, making them easier to view, edit, and manage. The toolbar allows you to open the link in a new tab, as well as remove or copy it, and edit its text and destination. The new composer, that includes this link toolbar, is still in development. You can enable it on your site and help us test it by following this guide.

Track individual invites with custom descriptions

\n

Invites can now have a custom description added, making them easier to identify. This helps keep your invites page more ordered, and allows you to track the performance of individual links. You can label invites based on the platform where you share them, who you share them with, what event you shared them at, or any other criteria you like.

\n

\"CleanShot

\n

Unique user preference icons

\n

The icons on the tabs for user preferences have been improved, so each tab now has a different icon. Going forward, instead of seeing the same icon on multiple tabs, each one will have a relevant and unique icon, making navigation easier for all users.

Admin name editing when full names are not enabled

\n

We recently took some time to work on a bug that affects how admins can manage the full names of their users when the enable names setting is disabled. This was reported and discussed, before a fix was implemented with the result that now admins can see and edit their user\u2019s full names, even if they are hidden on the rest of the site. This functionality is frequently required for tracking and compliance, with this fix allowing more effective administration of their sites.

Security Updates

This release includes fixes for these security issues reported by our community and HackerOne.
