Release Notes - June 3, 2010

Features included in this weeks release:

Billing

  • Some international customers have had their credit cards rejected because we were not prompting for the CVV and passing it along to our processor. We will now prompt for this information and pass it along to the processor for the initial transaction. Note: In accordance with PCI requirements, CubeTree does not store the CVV.

Simplified the Cross Company Group Invite Process

  • As customers expand their use of the CubeTree Private Cross Company Group functionality, we have heard requests to streamline the invitation process. In this week's release, we have done the following:

    • Improved the Group creation flow and combined the "Add Internal" and "Add External" processes to create a single place to invite new members to join.

      • New Group creation flow is now only two steps (instead of three).
      • The left nav for Cross Company Groups now has a single action called "Invite Members".
      • The Invitees field can contain a comma separated list of either existing Company members (start typing the name or email address to engage auto-complete) or email addresses from external domains.
      • If there is an error with one of the email addresses, we will display an error message and retain the text that was provided so that you can review the list to determine the error. We will not invite anyone from the list unless all the addresses are valid.
Default Group Task Assignee

  • When we added the Group Task capabilities last release, we included a feature to allow Group Admins to set the Default Task Assignee for the group. Unfortunately, it seems that we did not make it very easy to find this setting. To address this, we moved this setting to the Member page where the other roles and actions are found. So, you will now have the option of "make default task assignee" and "remove default task assignee" in addition to the "make group admin", "remove group admin" and "remove from group" for Members and the "send invite reminder" and "cancel invite" for Pending Invites. Also, if you choose "make default task assignee" and there is already another user assigned as the default assignee, the previous user will have that role removed.

  • If you choose to make an member that has not accepted the invite yet the default task assignee, they will only assume this privilege once they have accepted the invite.

Auto Subscribing to Groups

  • Users have found that the ability to subscribe and unsubscribe to Groups in order to receive email notifications when new feed items are generated to the group is very useful. We have added a new setting in the Create Group and Edit Group pages called "Auto Subscribe" that allows the Group Admin(s) to determine the default setting for group members. If this setting is enabled (checked), which it is by default for any new groups that are created, members will be Subscribed to the group after they join. They can still choose to Unsubscribe, but we wanted to be sure that the Group Admin could make sure that members were aware of activity that was happening in the group.



Add Photo Thumbnails to Emails

  • Thumbnails for photos in the feed have been received very well. So, we thought, we could add these to the html email notifications when the email references a new image. This will include email notifications when you are tagged in a photo, when someone Likes a photo, and when members upload new photos.
