Week of 31 October 2016
The following information summarizes what is new in the edX platform this week.
The edX engineering wiki Release Pages provide detailed information about
every change made to the edx-platform GitHub repository. If you are interested
in additional information about every change in a release, create a user
account for the wiki and review the dated release pages.
- This release updates the course Progress page to improve the
accessibility of the page for learners who use screen readers. This page now
has a logical and meaningful HTML structure, and heading levels and
indentation are now consistently applied. (AC-582)
- Course team members who use the bulk email feature can now
review details for the
messages they send by selecting Instructor, Email, Email Task
History, and then Show Sent Email History. Previously, the message
did not open as expected in a dialog box. (TNL-5840)
- When you view your course as a student,
custom pages that you defined to be
hidden from students no longer appear in the LMS. (OSPR-1528)
