Well we’re at it again, mid October and we have some more updates for you.

1. Job provides guidance – Small update, but it’s the details that matter. Just a little bit of instruction, we understand that not everyone lives on the internet (just us) and a little bit of guidance never hurt anyone.

2. Rename (sub)categories in catalogs – Simply click on the category or subcategory, make your changes and click rename. This will update all catalogs with their updated (sub)category name.

3. Exporting Reports – We’ve recently started providing an export for your reports. Looking at a report is very useful, but that same report is much more useful if you can export the data and manage it – using spreadsheet focused software (e.g. excel, etc …)

4. International Jobs and Resumes – Tendenci has come a long way and we’re starting to stretch our legs a little further than we imagined. We’ve been working hard to make our features more useful to our national and international friends. One of the more recent contributions to this ideal is no longer requiring the U.S. Citizen field in either Jobs or Resumes.

5. Partial Administrator – With some of our latest permission updates, a user can now have permission to be an administrator in only certain sections of your Tendenci powered website.  In other words, permissions are now more robust and administrators can better control their users capabilities. Pretty neat huh?

It’s the month of October and we have some spooky — ok exciting — updates to talk about.

1. Clone your forms and surveys – Now when you put in all the time to create either a form or a survey, you can duplicate your work simply by clicking a copy/clone page in the more options link.  Now you don’t have to start from scratch and you can simply edit the pieces you wish to change on your new form or survey.

 

2. Cleaner Console – Your console page has hidden the ‘other modules’ inside of a drop-down menu.  We’re neat-freaks just like you and don’t enjoy clutter.

 

3. Delete CMS Pages – You can now permanently delete a CMS page.  Simply click on the delete link found in the more options tab and click delete cms page.  This will take you to a page that will let you decide between moving an item to the trash or completely deleting it.

 

4. New SEM Page + Google Analytics Tool – First and foremost, we have one page dedicated to helping you maintain your web sites search engine optimization tools.  One of the newest tools we’ve added is the ability to update your own Google Analytics code.  You can find this link to Manage your SEM on your console page.

 

5. One less step when building a web site – When you first create
  your web site, you are no longer required to fill out the
  authentication code.  Now the easy/fast creation of a web site just got
  one step faster.

6. New Password Procedures – As mentioned last week.  We’re a little more strict (read: secure) with your password.  You can no longer retrieve your password, only reset it.  This update was done with everyone’s security in mind, resetting your password is also a piece of cake.  Click on forgot password, follow the link sent to your email, and reset — then boogy down.

As always we appreciate your comments and look forward to creative genius.

When updating your membership, you might notice that the passwords look a little longer than usual.  I’m here to tell you, no need to worry.  What your seeing is just a reflex of some of our more recent updates.  Obviously we will get to correcting this deceptive field from looking so scary/confusing.

Till then, I’m just here to say it’s cool and all of your functionality will work well, as always.
