November 2017 Releases

Feature enhancements

Expert Performance: Removal of moment.js library will launch November 9, 2017
All dependencies on the JavaScript library "Moment" will be removed as of November 9, 2017. Removal of the moment.js library will decrease page load times. If any custom JavaScript on your site was dependent on moment.js, your support contact has been notified with steps on how to update those dependencies.

Site Structure: Prevention of inadvertent new page creation
Currently, pro members who attempt to follow a link to a page that no longer exists will trigger the creation of a new page. Sites can now be configured to prevent this, and instead, deliver an error, "Page could not be found," with links to related articles.

Site Structure: Deletion of page children
Currently, pro members who attempt to delete a page have the option of leaving that page's children in place, which results in structure errors. Sites can now be configured to prevent this, and instead, warn the user that a specific number of child pages and files will be deleted.

Fixes

Editor: $Order script
Fixed an issue that prevented the proper rendering of $Order scripts within <pre> tags

Touchpoints: Customer Insights Touchpoint (Zendesk)

Editor: Image uploading
Fixed an issue that caused the image upload progress bar to freeze at 0% after dragging and dropping images onto a page in Firefox

Feature enhancements

Editor: Paste button
In this week's release, we've updated our editor with under the hood performance optimizations. As part of our efforts to increase efficiency, the “paste” button has been removed. Paste functionality has not been affected. Previously, the paste button would prompt a dialog which requested that the user paste content using the paste key command. After the update, users can simply use the paste keystroke, or right- or control-click directly in the page. See all keyboard commands in Expert.
