New features and fixes!
Our latest release includes several major additions including email notifications of Confer network activity, and on screen indicators of new updates.
Now your menu bar includes simple numeric indicators of posts you’ve not viewed, so if you’ve got three groups that you’re a member of, and each has a new post you haven’t seen, the groups menu item will have a (3) beside it, etc.
To setup email notifications, login to your profile settings, and you will see the Notification settings near the bottom of the page. There you can choose to receive email updates from your network as often as you’d like; as they happen, daily , or weekly. These are sent to your default email address provided in your user profile.
We’ve also massively refactored the code that drives directories of items, so now lists of users, tags, or groups should load much more quickly.
Finally, we’ve added the ability to view your other Confer networks (and associated indicators) from the “Networks” menu item on the main menu.
Keep the feedback coming. We’ve still got a lot on the way, so keep your eyes peeled for more updates over the coming days.
