Community release notes for May 12, 2025

[#1]

Hi all,

Our development team has implemented another set of fixes - and we have a meta update too. Read on!

Release notes:

With our new unified community, we’re adding release notes for our Learning offering as well. From now on, you’ll be able to follow releases to the forums, profile, learning, and general experience all in the same place.

• To get alerted when Community Release Notes are published, you can visit this page and click “Create alert” to set a search alert for this term.

• To subscribe to all Community Announcements, visit the main Announcements page and click “Watch” in the sidebar to subscribe by email or RSS.

Community:

New: There is now a direct link to Community Terms of Use located in the footer. 

Fixed: Welcome emails are being sent out again. If you have recently joined us and haven't received one, we want to extend a warm welcome to you. We are happy to have you with us!

Fixed: The problem that prevented members from mentioning one another while editing a post has now been resolved.

Updated: The old Forums Community Leaders page now redirects to the Champions page.

Profile page:

Updated: Profile privacy language has been updated on the edit profile page.

Updated: The 3-dot menu on the profile cards should no longer display if there is no action to take.

Updated: Menu option on linked accounts now shows “Unlink from primary” instead of “Unlink account”.

Fixed: When a member views the aggregated feed, they should now see an accurate count for posts across aggregated accounts.

New: Members now have a “Back to profile” link when viewing the “Recent Activity” page.

Learning:

New: You can now use keywords to search for content in the Learning catalog. Use the search bar to quickly find relevant on-demand lessons, courses, and paths. And remember that our on-demand content is always 100% free. [Go here] to try it out for yourself!

Updated: Recent updates to the learning path sidebar navigation allow learners to monitor their progress in real-time. This enhancement facilitates easier navigation to specific content that is relevant to them at any given moment, all without leaving the lesson and interrupting their learning experience.

Updated: Learners are now able surface lesson-level content in the catalog through filtering and keyword search so you can solve your problems faster and get back to work.

Thank you!

As always, please comment below if you have any questions, feedback, or suggestions for the team!

Hi @SilkeS 

For the progress on learning path activities it would be nice if we could reset the progress (or at least reset the questions at the end of each lesson) especially if revising before taking a certification and wanting to re-do questions without seeing previous answers

Hi @SilkeS 

I noticed today when trying to search for an article that I either search by:

I'm pretty sure that I used to be able to put my search text where it now says "Contains tag." Was this changed on purpose?

[SilkeS]

Thank you for your feedback, @Stephen_Lugton . I will pass this information along to our product team.

@Barbara Szczesniak , the search field can be found in the product collections or groups. It is not available on the homepage. I hope this helps.

Hi, community!

For the fourth or fifth time since this release, I observe the Notifications under the bell icon have run dry, returning only: Unable to fetch new notifications.  Same thing going to the See all notifications page feed.  It takes several hours up to a day before they reappear.  Common browser-fix stuff has no impact: logout / in, clear cache, etc.

This symptom happened before this release, although it was much less frequent.

Thanks, and kind regards,
Bill

Thank you, @Bill Sheboy . The notification issue is currently with our development team. We appreciate your patience as we work to resolve this.
