Written by BenchPrep Team | Feb 21, 2025 7:44:41 PM

The following items will be deployed on February 27, 2025. Please note that this list doesn’t include other internal and regular maintenance work that BenchPrep is releasing.

New Features and Enhancements

Improved Asset Loading Experience in WebApp

We’ve optimized loading for assets embedded in lessons in WebApp to reduce response times and enhance learner experience.

While content is being loaded, learners will now see a loader or spinner accompanied by a message, providing clear feedback on the loading status. This update ensures a smoother and more transparent experience while assets are being retrieved.

Expand Triggers & Webhooks for System-Generated Emails

We’re introducing new self-service configurable triggers and webhooks to enhance our existing webhook capabilities.

These updates allow tenants to seamlessly send related data to external systems in near real-time, aligning with each BenchPrep system-generated email. If the webhook is configured, anytime a transactional email is triggered on the platform, an corresponding webhook will be sent to the configured destination as well.This enhancement provides greater flexibility and automation for streamlined integrations.

Improved Accessibility for Date Picker Button

We’ve enhanced the data picker's open/close button for better accessibility and user interaction. In addition to improving the screen reader compatibility, we've made updated to how the input field handles data entries. 

Enhanced Flashcard Category Replication

We’ve improved the Flashcards management experience for content managers. Now, replication can occur even when categories and subcategories share identical names. 

  • The Parent Category displays its own cards as well as those of its child category.
  • The Child Category displays only its own cards and not those of the parent category.

This update eliminates the need to rename categories before and after replication, streamlining content organization and saving valuable time.

Improved Assignment Sorting in BluePrint

We’ve enhanced the assignment sorting functionality in BluePrint to provide more flexibility for content managers. 

Assignments, particularly essays, can now be sorted in specific order as needed, rather than being ordered by Assignment ID. This improvement allows essays to be rearranged easily using the existing drag-and-reorder components, ensuring that new essays are added in the desired order.

  • Card Coupler
  • Card Hunter I
  • Card Hunter II
  • Card Picker
  • Card Sweeper

This update ensures that these games are now fully disabled without requiring manual adjustments for each individual game.
