This article summarizes and describes any feature changes that have occurred between platform updates.
2019 Pressbooks Upgrade
On January 16, 2019, Lumen released an upgrade to Pressbooks, one of the core tools that we leverage to provide Candela capabilities.
The upgrade caused the following minor changes, detailed below:
Page privacy settings
The Private check-box setting on Pages was changed to rather be represented as Show in Web, indicating that a page is public.
What this means is that pages that were previously marked as Private now have Show in Web un-checked. This change was made automatically to all existing books when the update was released.
Imports: Available to Lumen Admins Only
The Show in Web change has also impacted the import feature. By default pages used to be imported as drafts (unless Save as draft was unchecked).
To ensure pages are imported as public pages, you will need to check Show imported content in web. This is unchecked by default.
Page authors
In earlier versions of Candela, the page owner/creator was represented as the Author in the Organize view. In this new release, pages can now have both individual authors as well as an owner.
Instead of being visible from the Organize view page creators are now displayed as owners (which is a field on the page itself). Authors can now be seen from the Organize view and set when editing the page.
Book Authors
A book can now have multiple authors. Instead of one single text input in the Book Info view, users can now select multiple (or create new) contributors as Authors, Editors, Translators, Reviewers, Illustrators, and Contributors.
