New features released Summary of all features and functionality added to CubeTree in March George, This is an update on the new features and functionality that we have delivered to you in March and haven't yet given you the details on. As you may know we deliver a new release to you each week at CubeTree. This is a summary of what we've added over the past month. Going forward look for more frequent updates more closely associated with our weekly Thursday releases. Finding Information Search capabilities have been improved for all document and group list pages, as well as the Company directory. We have added filters, like name searches and the ability to sort by columns. In addition: - Group search now enables you to find groups where members include a user that you specify (and we have added the ability to stop following groups from the list page)
- Document search includes a file type filter
- Directory supports user status (active, unaccepted invites, alumni and all)
Group Admin Privilege Request  Ever found yourself needing to invite users to a private internal or cross company group or perform other Group Admin functions, but were not able to because you were not an Admin? To assist, CubeTree has added the ability for members to request admin privileges on the left nav on the Group’s Wall. If you are not already an Admin, you can click this button and a group admin request Inbox item will be sent to each of the Group’s Admins. One of the Group Admins can then Grant or Reject your request. After one Group Admin has taken action, the other Group Admins will have the Inbox item removed. Additional Home Page Functionality We have added a few new feeds to your Home page to help you find important feed items, including: @user Feed – often times other CubeTree users in your company or in cross company groups will want to raise theurgency of a feed item and direct it to you. They do this by entering a “@” and then using the auto complete feature to find your name. We thought that it would be useful to find these feed items quickly so we added a new feed to the Home tab called @<user name>. - Bookmark – users can now choose the action to Bookmark any feed item (My Follows Feed, Group Walls, Profile Wall, @user Feed). They can then access them in the Home > My Bookmarks. Once you have taken action and no longer need the feed item to be bookmarked, you can then choose “Unbookmark” from the feed action list.
Wiki Updates Several updates have been made to our Wiki editor including: - Tables now have default cell padding and borders, column and row resizing has been improved and we have removed that initial space we had been adding to all cells.
- Flash elements can now be embedded.
- If you are the creator of a Wiki page, you now will be following the page by default (choose More > Stop Following in the Wiki toolbar to choose not to follow).
- We have added the ability to choose who you want to publish your updates to. When you publish a Wiki page, you can now choose to publish a feed item to the Group followers (if applicable) and/or you can choose to publish a feed item to all of your followers.
Admin Delete Privileges Site Administrators for Enterprise customers now have the ability to Trash any feed item and any Group that they are members of. Site Administrators and Group Admins can remove a group using the Trash Group left nav tool found on the Group Wall. Admin Reporting Now available for Enterprise customers, CubeTree provides 6 new self-service reports to provide adoption metrics, member activity and user status. Where applicable, start and end dates can be specified to get data for the time frame that meets your need. - Answers: What were users doing during the period specified; summarized by week?
