August release

Avatars and first course-specific features

The big wave of summer camps this year is over! On the record day, July 13, over 700 camps were running simultaneously, which were planned on eCamp v3. Thank you for your trust and we always appreciate your feedback. Behind the scenes we have been working on some features and bug fixes.

Adjust colors and initials for collaborators

You can now customize the color and initials of the people who collaborate in the camp. Two letters or one emoji are possible. This customizations can be done on a per-camp basis, but a default can also be set in your profile. #5281 #5411

As a first simple step towards course features, there are now specific text fields for learning goals and learning topics that can be incorporated into activities. #4990

It is planned that in the future it will be possible to export the contents of these text fields, together with other information, as course summary.

Learning goals and learning topics

Offline message

If you are offline, this is now indicated at the bottom of the page. #5026

Improvements from the community
