• Mark discussions as resolved — Thread authors and moderators can mark community discussions as resolved from the discussion card or detail page, showing a clear indicator when questions have been answered.
• Dedicated connection lost screen — If external backend services (such as Odoo) become unreachable, a friendly error screen appears with a retry option instead of an unhandled app crash.

🚀 Improvements

• Chat header and navigation — Chat headers on desktop, mobile, and floating windows were redesigned with cleaner action buttons and responsive back navigation. Long participant names wrap cleanly without pushing icons out of view.
• Smoother chat scrolling — Opening a conversation anchors directly to the most recent message at the bottom without jarring jumps from the top of the chat history.

• Article and tag layouts — Layout, typography, and card spacing issues on article detail, tag, topic, and search pages were resolved.
• Server error monitoring noise — External service dropouts (such as socket or database outages) are treated as upstream network issues rather than app crashes, preventing false alarms in error tracking.

✨ New Features

• Professional connections on profiles — On someone’s profile, you can open their professional connections list and browse who they’re connected with.
• Share anywhere — A consistent share menu is available on jobs, events, discussions, learning materials, and more, with layouts that work well on phones and in right-to-left languages.

• Search in FSP & KP learning — You can search within the FSP & KP learning workspace and see active filters (exam type, profession, state) in the search bar.
• Format while you write — When you select text in rich text editors (posts, comments, and similar), a floating menu lets you apply formatting without hunting through toolbar buttons.

🚀 Improvements

• Discussion previews — Thread cards show clearer snippets: more text when there’s no media, and balanced previews when posts include images, attachments, or polls.
• Bookmarks on article navigation — When you move between articles with “previous” and “next,” you can save or remove bookmarks from those cards like on other article lists.
• Chat messages — Delivery and “edited” labels sit more cleanly with the message. Reply is available from the quick actions on a message. Sender names wrap better on small screens.
• Search and social appearance — Key portal pages can use custom titles, descriptions, and preview images when editors set them in content management, which improves how links look in search results and when shared.

🚀 Improvements

• Web chat — Messaging looks cleaner, with updated bubbles, composer, and attachment previews. Multiple photos in a message appear in a compact grid, and shared learning materials are easier to read and open.
• Chat attachments and uploads — Images and files in chat load more reliably, including when links use temporary secure addresses. Failed uploads show a clear message instead of failing silently.
• Course registration pages — Language course cards are simpler to scan, with updated profession icons and exam titles that support richer formatting. Extra exam-prep links were removed from general course cards to reduce clutter.
• FSP/KP learning areas — Headers, tabs, and search are laid out more clearly so finding materials in these workspaces is easier.
• My Journey community suggestions — Recommended community channels appear as clearer, tappable cards (including direction-friendly arrows in Arabic).
• Info articles — Article pages use improved typography, spacing, and banner proportions for more comfortable reading. Internal links no longer show a distracting arrow icon; external links still indicate they open elsewhere.
• Dashboard navigation — Breadcrumb labels on Dashboard and My Journey use consistent, translated page names.
• Arabic (right-to-left) — Directional arrows and chevrons on tools, articles, and journey cards point the correct way in Arabic.

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Job forum link — The job forum entry in the job portal now opens the correct community channel instead of a wrong or missing page.
• Video calls in chat — If joining a call fails, you see a clear error and can try again from Rejoin, instead of the app acting as if you are already in a broken call.
• Sending chat messages — Messages are sent to the conversation you are in, which avoids mix-ups when switching chats.

✨ New Features

• More chat actions — You can mark conversations unread, pin or unpin them, forward messages, translate message text, and clear a conversation’s history from the chat list.

• Mentions in chat — Tapping a tagged member in a message opens their profile in a new tab without leaving the conversation unexpectedly.
• FSP/KP learning channels — Exam type, profession, and state filters use sensible defaults, stay selected after a page refresh, and the upload action is unavailable until you have joined the channel. Resource search is simpler without extra tag chips.
• Community sidebars — Sidebar width is more consistent on desktop, including protocol upload and channel filter areas.
• Protocol upload — Layout and controls on the protocol upload flow are easier to use.
• Bookmarks and content tags — Bookmarking behaves the same across community threads, info topics, and related cards; community and info content can show clearer tag labels on cards.

• Marketing and home content — Spacing is adjusted on logo strips, banners, and quick-tools sections for a cleaner look.
• CMS pages — Content-driven pages are less likely to show a duplicated top header when blocks are configured incorrectly; the FIA course registration page is structured with a standard header and footer.

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Job search by employment type — Filtering jobs by employment type returns the expected results.

• Icon buttons — Icon-only buttons render with the intended style across the site.
• Applying to external jobs — Apply links on external job postings prompt sign-in when needed, so applications are tied to logged-in users.

✨ New Features

• Leave community channels — Joined community channels now include a leave option. For grouped learning channels, leaving can remove you from the related channels together.
• Audio waveform player — Article audio now uses a visual waveform with drag-to-seek, making it easier to follow playback and jump to a specific point.
• Required message when connecting with a learning partner — Sending a connection request in learning partner channels now requires a personal message before the request can be sent.

🚀 Improvements

• Learning partner experience — Learning partner channels now show descriptions on channel cards, filters are hidden while completing your matching profile, and the profile step is labeled more clearly for matching.
• Chat experience — Chat lists, headers, avatars, reply previews, and conversation previews were refreshed for clearer reading on mobile and desktop. The “All” chat view now sorts by most recent activity, and group chats include easier access to invite and leave actions on smaller screens.

🚀 Improvements

• My Journey progress messages — Progress and motivation messages on My Journey now reflect the phase you are viewing, so guidance stays relevant as you switch phases.
• Search results — Article results now open the correct article page. Community discussions, events, polls, and other content types in search now link to the right place. Community channel results use a clearer, easier-to-scan layout.

Upload screens are separate pages with a Back action. Opening an FSP/KP channel now lands on Chat first.
• Clearer FSP/KP chat names — Chats in the main chat list and in the workspace use a consistent, readable title format (e.g. “FSP · Medicine · Berlin”). When “Other” is selected in the sidebar, the workspace and chat list show the actual state you picked (e.g. Berlin), not “Other”.
