This release introduces a series of enhancements and new features including Org Portal, Authoring, Item Management, Store, Reporting and Exam Management Portal. These changes aim to improve user experience and streamline processes.
Portal: General
Transition from CK Editor to Quill for Rich Text Editing
To optimize costs, we are transitioning from CK Editor to Quill for rich text editing, starting with high-volume areas such as item writing and item editing in item management. Quill, an open-source editor, offers basic formatting by default but can be extended over time. The transition will happen in phases, and Phase 1 will closely match CK Editor’s UI. Additionally, a “click to edit” feature will be implemented to prevent unnecessary editor loading, with a spellchecker not required at this stage.
Admin
Connector Functionality (SkillJar)
We are introducing a new Connector functionality for SkillJar, streamlining integration management in the Admin > Org section. Admins can now add, edit, and delete SkillJar connections, with a "click to connect" interface that supports key features like Eligibility, Results, Badging, and SSO. This update improves the management and integration of external services within the system.

Voucher Detailed Financial Report Enhancements
A new "Used Date" filter has been added to the "Date Search Type" options, improving the visibility and flexibility of voucher reporting. Additionally, changes ensure that vouchers are listed only once, even when they match multiple date criteria.
