It's not Perfect...Yet


The upgrade to CommonSpot 6.2 is complete, but we are in the process of installing and testing bug-fix patches.

You may have noticed that authoring is quite slow at times--within the next few days, that will be corrected. In the meantime, give tasks more time to complete. If after a few minutes of waiting, a task is not completing, use the refresh option and the process will most likely complete.

 

Just as a precaution: Jot down the changes you make to your pages starting today for the next few days. While we don't expect trouble, if it occurs, this will help.

Other Tips


If you find a page not displaying, try one of two things:

 

-Clear your browser history

-In work mode on the page in question, use Actions >> Clear and Update Cache

 

If you create a new subsite, there is a bug that creates a 'shadow' index.htm file. Send an email to web@uwec.edu and we will remove the file. We are expecting a fix for this within the next few days.

 

Please report other issues to web@uwec.edu. And thanks so much for your patience!
