Latest Contents block showing old content due to social feed data updates modifying updated_at field |
Old content (from 2017) is surfacing in the "Latest Contents" block, which should display recently updated or created content. The root cause has been identified as the new ingestion process updating the Root Cause
The new ingestion process is updating the Expected Behavior
Social feed data updates (likes, shares, comments, view counts) should NOT modify the Actual Behavior
Every 24-hour social feed data refresh is updating the Proposed Fix
Modify the ingestion process to exclude Impact
If the widget is the same for all customers on all stacks the impact is high because the “Latest Content” showing in the widget will not be correct. If affects these clients on Nova
|
“Latest Contents” should show the most recently created and recently edited content. |

Disable the Voice to Text feature in AI Coach |
As a Platform Administrator I want to disable the voice-to-text feature across all production instances So that users are not exposed to a broken feature while Mindset works on a fix |
AC1: Voice feature disabled via configuration
Given the Mindset widget is initialised on a production instance When the page loads Then the configuration snippet should have AC2: Configuration applied to all production instances
Given the voice-to-text feature needs to be disabled When the configuration change is deployed Then all production instances should have the updated Mindset init snippet with AC3: Voice-to-text UI element hidden
Given a user is interacting with the Mindset widget on any production instance When the feature loads Then the voice-to-text input option should not be visible or accessible

Summary
Here’s a shorter internal summary you can drop into the page.
Internal Release Summary (26.05)
This release delivers a mix of critical bug fixes, foundational ingestion work for new AI/Answers capabilities, and significant progress on the new content and learning plan experiences. Below is a view of what moved forward, grouped by their parent initiatives (epics).
Search & Ingestion Platform
We completed ingestion and CDC for Authentication, AI Coaches, and Answers communities, ensuring all three data sets are now kept in sync and searchable in near real time. We also fixed a regression issue where social activity was incorrectly affecting “Latest Content” widget ordering, restoring a true view of recent items.
Mindset / AI Coach Integration
We disabled the broken Mindset voice-to-text feature globally via configuration to protect the AI Coach experience while the vendor addresses underlying issues. The control is now hidden from users, but the rest of the AI Coach integration remains unaffected.
Nova Content Page Redesign (Articles & Links)
We made broad improvements to the new article and link pages: responsive layouts across breakpoints, better loading states, richer metadata (author, communities, dates, read time), and consistent social actions (like, share, save). Users now get a more polished, consistent content reading experience across web and devices.
Compliance – Digital Signatures
We introduced a dedicated digital signature component on specified content, laying the groundwork for more robust, trackable compliance acknowledgements. This improves both the user experience and governance around mandatory content.
Sequential Learning: Learning Plan & Content Cards
We brought SCORM and event items into parity with other content cards and improved how learning plans render on smaller screens. Learners can now save content directly from cards, and see clearer descriptions and completion states within learning plans.
Manager Workflow issue
We fixed broken navigation from the learning plan overview into specific occurrences (no more 404s) and restored managers’ ability to search and select learning plans in the My Team area. This removes friction for managers trying to assign or track learning plans.
Client Notes.
Here’s a customer-facing release note draft you can paste under Client Notes. I’ve included clear references to the Figma designs so you (or Marketing/CS) can grab screenshots for the final version.
Release 26.05 – What’s New for You
This release focuses on improving how learners consume content, strengthening compliance journeys, and smoothing out manager workflows – alongside some behind-the-scenes updates to keep search and recommendations accurate.
Smarter “Latest Content” recommendations
We’ve fixed an issue where very old items could appear in “Latest Content” whenever they received new likes, comments or views. “Latest Content” now correctly prioritises items based on when the content itself was created or edited, not when someone last interacted with it – giving your users a much more trustworthy view of what’s new.
Safer, more predictable AI Coach experience
We’ve temporarily disabled the experimental voice-to-text option in AI Coach across all production sites. This avoids exposing learners to a broken experience while our partner addresses issues with the feature. All text-based AI Coach capabilities continue to work as normal.
A richer content page experience (Articles & Links)
We’ve continued to roll out the new content page experience, making it easier and faster for learners to understand what a piece of content is, how long it will take, and whether it’s right for them.
Key improvements:
-
Clearer header and context
Every content page now provides a consistent header that shows:-
Title and short description with a “Show more / Show less” toggle
-
Community tag(s) so users can see where the content lives
-
Author name and avatar
-
Publication time/date and view count
Suggested imagery: Header design from Figma
-
-
Better reading experience on every device
Articles now:-
Adapt cleanly across mobile, tablet and desktop
-
Show responsive images inside the article body
-
Include an estimated “X min read” time based on article length
-
Truncate very long descriptions with a “Show more / Show less” control
Suggested imagery: Article layout and truncation examples
-
-
Cleaner small-screen layouts
On screens below 1200px, the side panel automatically moves beneath the main article so learners can focus on the content. On larger screens, the side panel returns to its usual position, with a new collapse/expand control to give learners more control over their reading space.Suggested imagery: Side panel reposition and collapse control
-
Community awareness on mobile
Community badges are now clearly visible on smaller devices, with support for multiple communities (e.g. “+2” indicator and hover/tooltip on desktop) so learners always understand the context of what they are viewing.Suggested imagery: Community badge behaviour
-
Consistent interactions on content pages
We’ve brought familiar social actions directly into the content page:-
Like with live like counts
-
Share with the existing share modal and share count
-
Save to quickly add items to “Saved” and remove them again
For link content specifically, we’ve added:
-
A clear label under the main action: “Open link in new tab”, so users know exactly what will happen when they click.
Suggested imagery: Social actions & link action label
-
-
Improved loading states
While an article is loading, learners now see skeleton placeholders that match the final layout (title, body, author, image and metadata). This creates a smoother, more predictable experience on slower connections.Suggested imagery: Loading skeletons
Digital signatures for compliance content
For content where formal acknowledgement is required (e.g. policies, compliance training), we’ve added a new Digital Signature component on the web experience:
-
Displays prominently below the content when signatures are enabled by an author.
-
Works across all standard web breakpoints, with accessible text and button behaviour.
-
Does not appear in the mobile app yet – this is scoped to web in this release.
This lays the foundation for more robust, auditable compliance workflows in future releases.
Suggested imagery: Digital signature component
Sequential learning: better content cards in Learning Plans
We’ve continued to enhance the learning plan experience so learners can understand and complete content more easily.
-
SCORM content cards
SCORM items now use the same modern card layout as other content types, showing:-
Thumbnail
-
Type (displayed as “Course”)
-
Title and description
-
Social indicators and a clear View button
(No new design link for this – uses the existing card component under the learning plan redesign epic PD-11156.)
-
-
Save from cards into “Saved Items”
Learners can now use the save icon on learning plan content cards to:-
Add items directly into their Saved list
-
See them again later in Saved Items
-
-
Clearer LP experience on smaller screens
On devices below 1024px width, learning plan content cards now:-
Clearly show the thumbnail, format and title
-
Indicate completion with a “Done” label and green tick where applicable
-
-
Event content cards
Event cards (including events inside learning plans) now display the description in a fixed-height, truncated format – giving learners more context while keeping the layout tidy, with proper loading and error states.
Suggested imagery: LP/event cards
-
(Uses your existing learning plan / card design under PD-11156; if you have a Figma file for LP cards, you can drop a couple of key screens here.)
Manager workflows – Learning Plans in “My Team”
We’ve fixed two long‑standing issues affecting managers on specific clients:
-
Learning Plan navigation from LP overview
Navigation from the learning plan overview page into specific occurrences no longer returns 404 errors – both the title and the view button now route correctly. -
Searching for Learning Plans in “My Team”
Non‑admin managers can now search and select Learning Plans from the My Team page as expected. Admin behaviour is unchanged.
Behind-the-scenes: better search & data freshness
To support future AI and content discovery capabilities, we’ve completed ingestion and near real‑time change data capture (CDC) pipelines for:
-
Authentication data
-
AI Coach communities
-
Answers communities
This ensures new, updated and removed items stay in sync across systems, so search, recommendations and reporting are built on a more complete and up‑to‑date dataset.
If you tell me which sections you plan to keep in the client-facing page (e.g. “we only want the UX bits, not ingestion”), I can tighten this even further and tailor the language for a specific audience (admins vs end users vs exec sponsors).
