Feng Office 2.3.1 builds on top of the 2.3.0 release to add a number of productivity enhancements, several bug fixes, and lots of little details that have been pending for quite a while now.

2.3.1 is something of a ‘polishing’ release. And a highly recommended upgrade.

The team also reintroduced a small number of features that were still missing from the 1.X days.

Group mailing: Phase 1

Clients using the Advanced E-mail module (These are approximately 30% of our clients), frequently remind us of their need to handle e-mailing to a group of users.

We have planned many improvements on this front, and the first one is already out!

When viewing contacts on the people-tab (This tab has to be activated on new accounts, as it is no longer included by default), you can now select (by checking on them) a group of contacts, and an option to send an e-mail to all of them will become available.

More power for task management

You can now select the date range for the tasks listed on the task tab.

 

This option applies to both the standard view and the Gantt Chart view.

 

Quick archiving of projects, clients, and workspaces

Projects, Clients, Workspaces, and just about any information space can now be quickly archived and unarchived through the ‘Dimensions’ management section at the Administration panel.

Improvements and fixes that were on the top of the wish lists

  • Many improvements and fixes have been developed for the Gantt Chart module.
  • When changing the Overview option to view as a list, the choice is now persistent when moving to other spaces, projects, etc.
  • Comments are now displayed on the ‘Activity’ widget of the Overview tab.
  • Google calendar synchronization has been improved and bugs fixed.
  • The direct URL for the Contact form is back!

Upgrading to the joy of Feng 2.3.1

There are many more features and fixes for your enjoyment, so if you like to learn more about them, please read the release notes from the development team.

Feng Sky clients using 2.3.0 will be automatically upgraded.

Feng Onsite clients will be contacted by your account executive to plan the upgrade.

Important note for System Administrators upgrading from previous versions

If you are going to perform a Feng Office upgrade, please make sure you closely follow the instructions for upgrading Feng Office.

Don’t forget to back-up!

Enjoy!

    Hello,
    The sourceforge page (given in the community edition link above) is giving 500 errors for me at least.

    Hello Fred!
    That is weird. Can you please try again?
    When I get there it directly downloads the new version.
    Best regards,

  • I have found some bugs. Fixing these bugs is crucial for the consistency of the database. Some tables are not cleaned on deletion. I reported it in the forum , however the forum is not very alive.
