October 2023 Release Notes

Welcome to Bevy release notes! Every month we share product updates, fixes, and general improvements. 

Product and Engineering Highlights

New Chapter Region Report Filter

In the admin report download center, a new chapter region filter was added to the following reports: Event attendees, event list, active chapter team report, all time chapter team members, current chapter members and departed chapter members

Event Page Builder – Location Details Display Rules

A new display rule was added to the event page builder called “event has location details.” When the rule is applied to a container on the page builder canvas, the content only renders on the page when the event has a physical address.

Fixes

Here are highlights of issues resolved

• Event Duplication – There was an issue that prevented chapter organizers from duplicating an event. This has been resolved.
• Featured Attendees – A featured attendee’s profiles linked page viewers to the individual's Twitter(x) profile and not the individual’s Bevy user profile. The issue was resolved, and all featured attendee profiles link to the individuals' public profile page.
  
• Improved Copy for Bevy Virtual Meetup “End event” Button – We’ve improved clarity with our updated confirmation prompt for the "End event for all" button in Bevy Virtual Meetup events. Now, hosts will have a clearer understanding that choosing to click "End event for all" will conclude the virtual event for all participants, and that the virtual event cannot be restarted.
