The Privacy, Disclaimer, and Cookies menu items have been added to the footer.

This also enables usage of the footer items with a different label and URL than for instance a cookies footer.

In order to hide a footer remove the label and URL footer in all relevant language(s).

The four provided footer locations. Just fill Label and URL with the desired value to show the footer including the link.

USABILITY, CONFIGURATION - Extend the faculty filter with support of checkbox-selection - SG-251

The product filter only supported a dropdown list selection.
Since the list of faculties is quit ofter short, for the product Faculty filter a checkbox select option is added.

This will make all faculties in the year selectable with checkboxes, single- or multi-select.
Additionally, the non-exact filter is improved to wrap words to new lines, similar to the checkbox display.
Faculties in this filter are now formatted as ({code}) {name} for improved readability.

Configuration: Set the filter to 'Exact' to enable the new filter based on checkboxes.

USABILITY - Improved determination of credits - SG-252

Since different customers use different methods defining credits a rule has been applied to the standard credit options minimum, optimum and maximum to get a credits value displayed when using the default credits display.

The rule is simple: if no optimum credits are present the system will now automatically use  and show the maximum credits instead.

USABILITY - Display of zero credits in lists, widgets, and structure - SG-257

In case a module has  0 credits, this was not displayed correctly. The credits were not shown, so it was not necessary to see difference between 0 and 'undefined' credits. This has been fixed and zero (0) credits will now be shown as "0" instead of being omitted.

Modules with 0 credits are displayed correctly

BUG, USABILITY - Fixed: enable sorting on credits - SG-259

Resolved an issue that prevented sorting by credits in the product lists. Sorting by credits (optimum or maximum) is now fully functional again.

CONFIGURATION - Enable filtering on  (boolean) values in Tab configuration- SG-264

Added the ability to select values (All, TRUE, or FALSE) for "Visible," "Is Subtab," and "Has Widgets" in the tab list admin table, simplifying the configuration process.

Removed the (non-working and) now redundant sort option for "Is Subtab" and "Has Widgets".

Added filter on boolean values in Tab configuraiton

CONFIGURATION - Improved label management - SG-253

Made some stability improvements to the labels, and resolved an issue preventing the creation of new labels in the system using the Label-menu.
