✨Focus topics of this release
The following milestones were achieved in the last 14 days.
| New Stuff | |
|---|---|
| Featured/Advertorial articles for the Blog module |
We added the possibility to mark up to 3 blog articles as featured/advertorial. |
| Improvements | |
| Adapted commerce products logic |
From now on, recruiters won't be able to purchase any credits that are tied to their active unlimited flatrate/subscription product. This removes the risk of purchasing a commerce product as a duplicate. |
| Performance improvements |
We are steadily improving performance, this time we looked at unnecessary GraphQL queries and removed them in order to boost the site speed. |
| Bug Fixes | |
| Job expires soon reminder | Missing translations | We have been working on a new email to inform recruiters that their job is running out soon. We found a few missing translations in the translation UI (title + description). The emails now contain the correct translations. |
| Can't access organisation profile without being verified on multilingual sites |
Recruiters will now be able to access organisation profiles on multilingual sites without any issues. |

| New Stuff | Job Posting API | Get job list | It is now possible to get job IDs via the Job Posting API |
| Improvement | Billing email address for order exports | As site admin, I want to easily access the billing email information from the orders in the report to save time instead of searching for it in different columns. |

| Improvement | Show original job ad on jobs posted via template | A new field is available in the backend for jobs posted via template. It allows setting a link to the original file in the frontend. This is a configuration especially important for print-to-online workflows and it is disabled by default. |
| Bug Fixes | Search bar overlaps landing page elements | On the mobile frontpage, the sidebar overlapped with the content of a landing page row The landing page row element now should not be overlapped by the search bar. |
| Bug Fixes | Taxonomy values sometimes displayed double for imported jobs | On some imported jobs we have noticed that certain taxonomy values are displayed double. Each taxonomy term should now only be shown once. |
| Bug Fixes | issues with stats with fading background | When the landing page row element "Stats with fading background" is used and icons with text were added, the icons were not displayed. Now when the icon with text is added there, the icon should be visible. |
| Bug Fixes | Job expires soon reminder | Missing translations | We have been working on a new email to inform recruiters that their job is running out soon. We found a few missing translations in the translation UI (title + description). The emails now contain the correct translations. |
| Bug Fixes | Automatically open all external links in a new tab broken | We previously added an improvement to automatically open all external links in a new tab. This unfortunately got broken as the external links were opening on the same page. All external links should now always open in a new tab/window (landing pages, jobs, company profiles, blog articles..) |
| Bug Fixes | Can't access organisation profile without being verified on multilingual sites | Recruiters will now be able to access organisation profiles on multilingual sites without any issues |
