April Showering of Features

April brought with it a ton of new and exciting features! Take your website to the next level with a new map block, add extra lines to your custom invoice notes, and manually send the daily agenda to a teacher. Check out even more updates below:

Student Portal

  • After viewing the details of a message in message history, the date range will now remember what you had entered previously instead of reverting to the default setting
  • We fixed an issue that was causing deleted locations to show up in the Student Portal calendar’s search list

Student Management

  • We fixed an issue that caused the status of a student to change from adult to child when moving them to a new family
  • When adding a new student with an inactive status, My Music Staff will no longer automatically provide information about auto-invoicing options
  • We fixed an issue that would occur when editing attendance from a student’s profile, where returning to the previous screen would return you to the teacher’s profile instead
  • We fixed an issue that was preventing some info from being passed along when an adult student signs up for lessons via a website sign-up form

Teachers & Staff

  • When adding a hyperlink to text or an image, you can now link directly to both pages and subpages
  • When editing content using the website builder, the save button will now only enable once you make changes (making it more clear when changes have been made)
  • We updated some of the block previews to even more accurately represent what the blocks will look like on a live website.
  • We fixed an issue that was preventing custom HTML blocks in the website builder from previewing correctly
