The Great Reading Adventure version 4.0.0-beta2 has been released. This is a beta version of the software. We believe it to be stable but you may experience issues.

There is no upgrade path from versions 1, 2, or 3 to version 4 due to signiticant architectural changes.

Notable changes in this release:

  • Version 4 is a complete rewrite in the Microsoft .NET Core 1.1 framework
  • Households can now be upgraded to groups by administrators regardless of household size
  • Structured data for events
  • Friendly 404 page
  • Bundled CSS and JS assets (smaller and fewer files)
  • Added the ability to set a culture for displaying dates and times (defaulting to ‘en-US’ with 12-hour times)
  • Mission Control management of point translations, authorization codes, roles, participant role assignments
  • Ability to send test emails from Mission Control
  • Vendor code improvements (reports, additional email token)
  • Fixed issues with household leads and groups in Mission Control
