Bugfixes and Stabilization

This release focuses on stabilizing CSV and Targeted Surveys, which were both part of the last release (v3.11.0) as well as addresses numerous bugs across the platform.

CSV

• Fixes a bug that caused certain csv exports to fail
• Ensures all expected fields are included in csv exports

Targeted Survey:

• Fixes a bug causing Targeted Survey questions to send in the incorrect order
• Reformats phone numbers to ensure they match the selected SMS provider
• Disassociates unrelated sms messages from existing surveys
• Provides a count of recipients, responses, sent, and pending messages after a survey has been published

Other:

• Selecting unmapped posts now applies filters correctly in 'Data' view
• Correctly duplicates surveys (however, not allowed with Targeted Surveys)
• Ensures that child categories inherit parent category permissions
• Updates the date on a post when changing the 'Post Date'
• Updates translations across the app and makes right-to-left changes more consistent
• Removes blank space between heading and map on embeds

Release 3.11.0

This update makes data CSV exports & filters more reliable while increasing the amount of data you can export and giving you access to an "Export history" tab to reference your exports at a later date and download them as needed. It also adds the "Targeted Surveys" feature, currently available for select deployments.

CSV IMPROVEMENTS:

• Export is now handled in a queue system. This means larger exports & datasets are possible without the system "crashing". We have added an "Export is ready" notification to let you know when you can download the file.
• Previous exports and the status of your requested exports can be viewed in Settings => CSV Export under the "Export history" tab. Exports flagged with the status "Pending" are still in progress, and you will be notified when ready (but you can always come here and check if you missed a notification).
• CSV column headers have been improved for better readability of the exported data.
• Grouped multi-value fields make it easier to view lists of data in 1 column (ie Categories).
• Ability to select fields that will be excluded from an export dataset has been added.
• Date formats are now consistent. Clarifying Date timezones in CSV with a (UTC) string in the date headers.
• "Share CSV" is not available for visitors without admin privileges. This feature was added to protect your data and only make it available to those that you grant access to. You can still publish & share exported datasets if you wish to make them available (i.e. by exporting a dataset and uploading it to google sheets).

TARGETED SURVEYS (SMS):

Important: this feature is only enabled in a select few deployments at the moment.

Targeted surveys allow administrators to create a survey to be sent to a specific group of users via sms and receive responses via sms associated to that survey and their posts.
The targeted survey consists of a group of questions (survey fields) that are sent in order of priority to all the selected contacts. When a contact responds to a question, the next message is sent to the user. When a user has answered all questions, they stop receiving messages from the targeted survey.
This feature also includes a view to see the targeted survey stats (that is, how many messages have been prepared, sent, and received) and a shortcut to see all the answers to a targeted survey to structure data efficiently.
