Lionbridge Connector for Episerver Release Notes ver. 1.6.3

What’s New?
  • You can now send a heartbeat message to the Clay Tablet Platform that enables it to monitor the health of the Connector. You configure this in the Translation heartbeat job page, which you open from the Scheduled Jobs section of the Admin tab.
  • You can now customize the links displayed in the Link column in the Lionbridge Connector Dashboard. You configure this by specifying a non-default domain in the Asset Link text box in the Other settings tab, which you open from the Settings context menu item in the Lionbridge Connector gadget.

Recommendation: Configure this if in the Admin tab, on the Manage Websites page, the URL configured for the public website (front-end URL) is different than the domain of the environment (back-end URL). This may cause the Dashboard to display errors when loading, or prevent links from being displayed.

Issues Fixed in This Release

3 Scrolling the list of projects in the Lionbridge Connector gadget has been optimized, and it now uses fewer client resources.
4 The translation background jobs have been optimized in the DXC environment.
5 Previously, the Connector could not retrieve blocks referenced on a page. This issue has been resolved. The Connector can now retrieve blocks that are referenced on a page in a Content Area or ContentReference fields.
