What's new in 2019.10.2


SK-113 Kroc Theme: Remove requirements for social links

  • On the 10/2 demo we noticed that Pinterest could not be removed as a social link. Erin wanted the ability to remove social icons/links by leaving the URL blank.

  • Added this setting in Conductor:

  • Now if the social URLs are blank:

  • ...the icons are removed from the footer:

This applies to both the Kroc Theme and the Symphony 2016 theme


SK-114 Kroc Theme: Update driving directions

  • Changed the map icon to link to the Google place search results instead of directly to the directions to the center


SYMC-152/SYMW-79 Updated Site Subscriptions for use in Symphony

  • A Site Subscription gives the ability to subscribe to another site's stories, so they appear on your site
  • To subscribe to sites, go to https://webmanager.salvationarmy.org/[THQ SITE]/admin/site_subscriptions

  • Site Subscriptions weren't displaying stories correctly on Symphony THQ Master Sites
  • This change displays them correctly, and changes the button text to "Read Local Story" vs the default "Read More"
  • Also, when multiple sites are subscribed to that have the same story syndicated to them, only one instance of the story is displayed on the consuming site



Issues Addressed in 2019.10.2


🐞 SYMC-157 Fixed Internet Explorer & Edge Issues

  • Theater space images were being distorted/stretched on different resolutions


🐞 SYME-48 Updated Tealium Tracking/Analytics DataLayer

  • Fixed hard-coded 'USC' territory
  • Changed all homepages to use "homepage" & "Home" for page_name & site_section, respectively
