Maps - PC Availability Information
February 2025CAM-25893
React Native now supports the display of PC-availability information in maps. This feature can be used by institutions that provide PCs for students to use, for example, in libraries or laboratory environments. If your institution offers this type of service to students, and your system keeps track of which PCs are in use at any given time and which are available for students to use, you can provide this information in campusM maps. To do this, your system must have a server that can provide information about PC availability at specific positions whenever it is requested.
PC-availability information can be included in maps by attaching it to a special location category. When the end-user selects this location category in a map, a list of relevant locations opens at the bottom of the map. The list includes information about the total number of PCs found at each relevant site and the number of these PCs currently available for use.
For more information, see Adding Maps and Locations to Services.
Analytics - Analysis of Page Views by User Role
February 2025 Idea Exchange CAM-26520
Two new subject areas have been added to Analytics:
- Home Page by Roles
- Pages by Roles
These new subject areas enable you to break down data about tile and page selection by user roles. For example, from the Home Page by Roles subject area, you can create a report that shows how many users with specific roles selected each tile in the homepage. This can indicate which tiles are most useful to users of different types. Based on this information, you might decide to move certain popular tiles to the top of the homepage for specific types of users, or remove certain tiles that are never used by specific types of users from the homepage entirely.
Two out-of-the-box (OTB) reports built on these subject areas are also now available:
- Home Page by Role OTB
- Pages by Role OTB
These reports can be used to quickly create reports of tile- and page-use per user role.
For more information, see campusM Analytics Subject Areas.
Resolved Issues
- February 2025 Platform: Android SF: 07269332 CAM-26293
Scrolling in certain pages appeared choppy and at times content failed to load during scrolling. This was fixed. - February 2025 SF: 07485554 CAM-25818
A Canvas live-tile course icon had an exclamation point displayed on it, as if there was was an error, when in fact there was no error and the tile worked properly. This was fixed. - February 2025 Platform: Mobile SF: 07809400 CAM-25818
When the user changed the profile in the app, the app continued to display the content for the previous profile. This was fixed. - February 2025 SF: 07729746 CAM-26217
Security upgrades were implemented in order to address a number of concerns that arose. - February 2025 SF: 07737479 CAM-26381
When using the Events Product Integration with JSON API, modifying the configuration of the Product Integration caused the app to display no events. This was fixed. - February 2025 Platform: React Native SF: 07235492 CAM-25558
When users zoomed in on a map position, the maximum zoom was implemented immediately, hiding the surroundings of the position. This was fixed; the zoom is now implemented in stages. - February 2025 Platform: Web SF: 07596772 07235836 CAM-25936
When a lecturer tried to use the bulk check-in feature to mark students as absent, and only one absence reason was defined in the system's configuration, a blank region appeared instead of the dropdown menu from which the lecturer should have been able to select an absence reason. This was fixed. - February 2025 SF: 07234183 CAM-25474
When a student checked-in offline, the system did not check the current IP address of their device at the time of the check-in (which should have been null if they were offline), instead recording the IP at the time the student selected the Attendance tile. This opened up the possibility that the student would appear to have been at a different location at the time of check-in than where they really were. This was fixed. - February 2025 SF: 07681033 CAM-25964
Alerts sent to end-users about Quick Polls did not appear in the list of notifications in the Notification Center. This was fixed. - February 2025 Platform: React Native SF: 07775311 07759769 CAM-26327
For customers who require a token for authentication in their attendance history endpoint, no indication of successful checking-in was shown to students after they checked in from the app. The Submit button remained visible even after the check-in was completed. This was fixed. - February 2025 Platform: React Native Android SF: 07774871 07269265 07259645 07168963 07101627 CAM-24662
When an end-user was viewing a sub-page of a page that they had opened by selecting a tile on the homepage, selecting the Back button brought them back to the homepage, rather than to the page from which they had opened the sub-page. This was fixed. - January 2025 Platform: iOS CAM-25954
Certain permission-related text lines were not translated into the interface language when it was set to a non-English language. This was fixed. - January 2025 Platform: iOS SF: 07240283 07498507 07700333 07762796 07769116 07781167 CAM-25286
In the calendar, in month view, the dates selector locked intermittently so that swiping to select a different date range had no effect. This was fixed. - January 2025 Platform: React Native SF: 07734946 07729416 CAM-26219
When an end-user checked their notification channel subscriptions, their subscriptions were automatically toggled off. This was fixed. The channel subscription settings no longer change when the user opens the settings page. - January 2025 Platform: React Native CAM-26133
When users of screen readers navigated through certain pages, the headings were not identified by the reader. This was problematic for blind and visually impaired users, who could not tell which text was a heading rather than body text. The problem was fixed. - January 2025 Platform: React Native SF: 07221266 CAM-25673
Actions linked to map positions were not functioning properly. For example, when a content page was linked to a position, the page did not open when the position was selected. This was fixed. - January 2025 SF: 07763531 CAM-26310
The MyTimetable integration was not functioning properly, causing the app tile to show an empty calendar with the message "Calendar unavailable." This was fixed.
