 January 19, 2023

Highlights

  • Testdrive process infrastructure upgrade
    An additional set of changes was required to make our new testdrive infrastructure work as desired, and so we’ve taken an additional release cycle to build and test these changes. They are now ready to go, but will NOT be live immediately after the release completes. Our plan is to conduct some final tests after the release, and then enable them either later today or tomorrow morning, so please stay tuned for additional details shortly.
  • Flex content updates
    This release will contain another set of updates, fixes, and additions to the flex content system. Among these numerous changes you will find the following: Newly updated default content will allow featured locations to automatically populate to site content, a new YouTube content block to allow easy video integration, and a new macro selector will be available for CSRs only to help with inserting macros when editing content.
