Comments v2.0.2 released

[Nikolay Safin]

Hi,

We are writing to inform you that Comments v2.0.2 was released today. This release contains new configuration params addition, visualization and performance improvements and other misc updates.

Here is the list of the Comments app updates released today:

• a few parameters were added for Top and All Posts sections:
• “openLinksInNewWindow” parameter which provides an ability to change links behavior: if a link should be opened in a new browser tab/window
• "enableIntentsResponsiveness" parameter to provide an ability to control Intents responsiveness behaviour in case a container size is changed
• “replyNestingLevels” parameter to specify replies nesting level (0-5 levels).

• Top Posts section was turned off by default to avoid extra API requests and speed up app loading in most cases. Top Posts can be enabled in a dashboard if required by a use-case.
  

• Attachments feature (which allows adding media attachments to items) in Post/Reply Composers is now turned on by default.
  

• Item Intents functionality was refactored to be responsive and adapt to a container size changes.
  
• App performance was improved, specifically:
  

• “streamserver.pack.js” is no longer included, which gives 30kb script payload reduction.
• Twitter widgets lib (30kb) is not included by default, it’s being loaded dynamically if a Stream contains at least one tweet.
• “count” live updates are stopped if there is more than 5000 items in a Stream, since we hit the StreamServer “count” API limitation (“count” API is not returning items count if it’s more than 5000).

• “More” button behavior was improved in case items retrieving failed. Now “More” button shows a proper error messages and applies correct CSS rules.
  
• App behavior in IE was improved (placeholder in compact mode was not showing up, compact form was not expanding in some cases, Post Composer panel had a few UI glitches).
  

Please let us know if you have any feedback, it'll help us make further improvements.

Thank you,
