Update OpenLucius | April 2016

Parent Feed: 

The past month we have processed again a lot of feedback and improved OpenLucius, a Drupal social intranet. Below the improvements that have been made yesterday:

1. Navigation text documents better and faster

We noticed that the navigation of text documents was loading slowly - when placing a lot of text documents (100+) in a group. This is now loaded with a different technique that makes everything much quicker.

We also addressed the navigation to sub-pages (1): this is now more intuitive, faster and mobile usable. Finally, we placed a search feature above (2), so you can find/filter documents quickly.

2. Hide comments

We received a lot of feedback that a page with many comments was becoming unnecessarily long and cluttered. We solved this by hiding comments - just like Gmail does. Hidden comments can easily be shown again.

3. Improved status updates

It is now visible who placed Likes and also images can now be enlarged.

4. Changing profile made easier

When changing your profile, the information is now divided into tabs. Before the update all the profile fields were shown below each other.

5. Event information

All information about an Event is now shown immediately, instead of in separate tabs.

6. Adding To do’s from Group dashboard

When adding a To do from a Group dashboard, you will return there again after saving. Also the date field is now by default empty.

7. Icon: ‘Visible to client’ improved

This icon is now only displayed when the relevant content is placed in a group, specified as ‘Group with clients’.

8. Images in text

Images posted in text are now also scaling well on a mobile device.

9. Easily change your picture and cover image

Change your picture or cover image instantly by moving your mouse over them and clicking ‘change cover image' or 'picture icon'.

10. News tab front page

We have added a ’Show more’ feature. You can see now also who gave the Likes.

11. Notifications optimized

The button ’Show more group members’ (under notification marks) is now only shown once.

12. Translations

Some missing Dutch translations have been added.

Wrap up

That’s it for April, questions or feedback? Let me know!
