We have a good mix for you this month. The Chatbot gets a lot more customizable, our new Observation Checklists arrive in the mobile app, and OnTrack scheduling finally stops fighting with the calendar.

  • General Improvements
    • You can now edit video subtitle translations directly in the Admin Tool, whether they were generated by AI or uploaded manually.
    • You can now turn the gating between Learning Path sections on or off, so Users can move through a module's sections in any order when it's disabled.
    • A new filter on the Media page surfaces items that aren't used in any module or Drive carousel, so you can bulk-select and act on them.
    • Plus scores of minor tweaks and bug fixes to improve your day-to-day use of the whole Wisetail suite of tools.
  • Chatbot Improvements
    • You can now shape how the Chatbot responds, setting the tone, formality, reading level, and response length to fit your experience.
    • Chatbot answers now stream in from the top down, so Users can follow along as the response comes together.
  • Observation Checklist Improvements
    • You can now sort the Checklist Queue widget by when Users joined the queue, oldest to newest or newest to oldest.
    • The Observation Checklist Report has new Sorted by filters to help you find the exact checklist you need.
  • LMS Mobile App Improvements
    • Our new Observation Checklists are now in the mobile app, with the new question types, saved progress, and media attachments. Single-user observations only for now.
    • Users can share dialog boards and individual posts from the mobile app, just like on the web.
    • Users can add comments to Learning Path modules from the mobile app.
  • OnTrack Improvements
    • A new All Month scheduling mode handles month-long recurring events for you, so you no longer have to work around months with 28, 30, or 31 days.
    • Scheduled custom reports can now be delivered as PDFs in addition to CSV.
    • You can now save and schedule the OnTrack Open Actions and Resolved Actions reports as custom reports.
    • You can add, view, and delete supporting photos when editing an existing corrective action, with every change captured in the Activity Log.
