The best way to think about this update is major under the hood work. There isn’t a lot of noticeable interface changes, or new/improved features. What there is, however, are a whole slew of changes designed to streamline and integrate the system further together. This will mean that your overall experience with the leading Integrated Church Solution will be even better.

There are many more under the hood changes that will make your website and the software run more smoothly. You’ll notice the biggest update to the multi-media web module that displays the podcast. There have been some major usability updates allowing navigation of the podcast list, selecting a skin from a list of 10+.

• Updated Multimedia Play list web module
  • Includes Unique item links
  • Paginated Play List
  • Social Media sharing options
  • Embed able media content
• Improved main page to help users get where they want to go
• New log in page design
• New Soft Data type – Multi-Select
• Rosters now include the option to show member photos

The Minor Changes

• Member Relationships have an improved management interface
• Giving export speed improvement.
• User Management layout improvements
• Links in web content now dynamically update for your mapped domain and for local web pages
  • Change a page’s permalink and links to it on your website update
• Now can quick search member with any parts of names
• Can now upload new thumbnails to audio and video media items

Our clients will not really notice any difference in the working or functionality of their site as we fully implement v1.6.2 but will notice a system that has an increased updatability for our programing staff.
