Release: Oct 10th 2022
Build: 4.3.0.12151 (on-premise), 4.3.0.12150 (on the cloud)
Install ID: sw430_12151

Installation Instructions (note: Cloud editions are upgraded automatically)

  1. We are currently testing multi-language support
    1. You can now provide your Staff.Wiki in multiple languages. You configure this in the Configuration / Languages area. 
    2. You can even customize or add your own language translations. 
    3. We will be adding languages between now and the next release, with an initial offering of Spanish. If you see corrections that are needed to any translations, or any issues with terms not appearing in the right language, please let us know. 
  2. Articles created from templates can now be verified to ensure they always follow the same structure as the template when they're edited. All headers in the template must be present in the article that was created. This is configured in the Metadata setting of the article, under "Enforce Template Structure".
  3. There is now a Find/Replace option in the editor (in the dropdown menu). This lets you find and replace specific words/terms in the article or currently selected text in an article. 
  4. All articles that have child-articles will now have a list of links to the child articles appear at the bottom of the article. Previously you would only see this if the parent article was empty, now it will always appear at the end of the article regardless.
  5. When printing an article to PDF, it will no longer show a table of contents if it's a single article. It now also includes the logo (uploaded to Configuration / Override Logo) at the top of each page.
  6. There is a new report available for articles: 
    1. Change History. You run this in Explore more on an article (available only to Wiki Managers). It will show the entire history of an article, with all operations that occurred for each draft, including the approvers that were involved.
    2. Section Change History. Same as the Change History report, but shows the change history for the current page and all sub-articles.
  7. You can now create a master index of your wiki. In the editor, if you include the markup code INDEX (surrounded by percent symbols) in your article, it will be replaced with a full index of links to all articles in that tab, alphabetized. You can add this through the editor dropdown menu, in the "Insert Index" option. (Note: after making article title changes, adding or removing articles, it may take a few minutes to show up in the index).
  8. When publishing, you can now specify that an update is a Minor Change. This will be recorded in the change history and will not update the version number of the article. It will also not send notifications to subscribers.
  9. There is now a Reformat option in the editor (in the dropdown menu). This provides additional options for fixing text after it is pasted, such as removing all formatting, pasting as just one paragraph, removing excessive spaces and so on. This is to make it easier to import certain unsupported formatting from other applications. This works either on the current selection or the entire article. You can also use this to run Text Processing Scripts (see below).
  10. Improved spacing and indentation issues when pasting documents from Microsoft Word.
  11. Staff.Wiki now provides Text Processing scripts:
    1. You can now create Text Processing Scripts, which can be used to process articles imported into the system to fix formatting issues, replace text and extract specific information into titles and other metadata. This simple macro language can be created in a built-in testing area (in the Configuration tab, available to administrators), and then applied to any imported articles. (We provide professional services to develop these scripts for you if you need assistance with documents you need to import. Contact us for more details.).
    2. The Text Processing Scripts can also be used to perform a global find and replace for a specific term, for example if the name of your company changes.
  12. You can now disable the Clock-In and Clock-Out buttons on the users tab. This is set on the Configuration tab, Main Settings, "Disable Clock-In".
  13. You can now make the login SSO-preferred, meaning that the login page will only show the "Sign in with Google" or "Sign in with Microsoft" buttons by default, with a separate link to let the user login with a username if preferred. This is set in the Configuration Tab / Authentication Settings / Login Page SSO Only setting.
  14. More performance improvements to make the system faster, more responsive and able to scale to more users.
  15. The Request Exemption functionality has changed so it no longer goes through the ticket system. The request now appears under the article being exempted. This avoids certain complications related to how tickets are assigned in departments. The exemption requests can now also be canceled by the originator.
  16. Adding an asset booking is now possible even if you don't have an asset supervisor set. Previously this would show an error.
  17. Incident reports:
    1. When adding input to an Incident Report, you will now be warned if the originator of the incident (the reporter) is being notified.
    2. Incident Report "Assigned To" list is now only visible to the user who is assigned the incident report, and not other users (for security reasons).
  18. There are two new acknowledgements / attestation reports:
    1. "Acknowledgements For User" report, available to Wiki Managers on the Users tab, that shows all the acknowledgements/attestations for that user, both pending and completed, for the past 2 years.
    2. "Outstanding Acknowledgements", a report available on the Users tab for Wiki Managers, shows all outstanding acknowledgements for all users, grouped by user.
  19. There is a new admin action called Import Article Xml, under Explore / Admin Functions, which can be used to import an article and its entire history from an XML file. This function is available for administrators only. You can export an article and its history to XML by going to Admin Tools (top right corner), expanding functions and saving the link "XML (For Importing)" to a file.
  20. On-premise licensing can now work with a new dynamic key that allows it to be moved to different servers, or add or remove Wiki Managers, without having to have a new key be issued. For more information please contact us.

    Fixes:

  21. Fixed some editor quirks when paging up/down and using the home key.
  22. Various fixes to make asset booking more reliable and function more intuitively, including adding the ability to cancel a booking.
  23. Fixed an issue where specifying a primary user group for a user when first adding them would not actually add them to the group unless it was done manually in the group itself. Also fixed an issue where removing the user from the actual group wouldn't reset the primary group set on the user profile.
  24. Fixed an issue where checklist form fields with the same title wouldn't be added to a custom list as its own column.
  25. Fixed an issue with adding comments to tickets where sometimes it would display an error.
  26. Fixed an issue where users who are wiki managers but not user managers were not able to type into user dropdown lists.
  27. Fixed an issue with removing assets where an error would sometimes be displayed.
  28. Fixed an issue with the Compliance Readiness report where you may see an error when linking to mitigation related to checklist completions, in certain circumstances.
  29. Fixed an issue where acknowledgements would update the last requested date, even if it were already pending. It now leaves the original date of the request to get a clearer picture of how long an acknowledgement has been pending.
  30. Fixed an issue where you could not update an asset to set it to Shared after it was created as non-shared.
  31. Fixed an issue with switching the Asset Access flag on a user off and on where it would sometimes produce an error.
  32. Fixed an issue with Clock-In and Clock-Out introduced in the last release, where an error would be displayed for certain users.
  33. Fixed an issue where daily digest reminder emails were not being sent out in certain circumstances.
  34. Fixed an issue where links would break mid-word when wrapping the contents box.
  35. Fixed an issue with the indent button in the text editor, where it would shift location after it's first clicked.
  36. Fixed an issue where very occasionally an inserted page editor would appear blurred when used on a slow connection.
  37. Fixed an issue where in certain circumstances when editing continuously and then switching to the same page under the same user in a different browser window, the changes entered could be lost.
  38. When moving articles, we now properly update all references to the article in risk mitigations, compliance objective evidence and attestation group article lists.
