Welcome to School Manager release 2021-003!

This version of School Manager introduces improvements to Safe Search, configurations, and reporting. We have also added improvements in the exported versions of the Student Journey Report, which is currently on limited release with our partner test schools.

New Features and Improvements

Updated Safe Search configuration

The Safe Search page now allows administrators to manually reorder Safe Search rules.  As some rules take priority over others, it is important to be able to place them manually in the right order: from top to bottom based on priority. 

Simply click a rule’s Move (+) icon and drag the rule up or down the list. School Manager will then process the rules according to the order configured by the administrator.  

This manual configuration replaces the  previous way of rearranging Safe Search rules that required administrators to click on column headings.

A better way to diagnose configurations and issues  

School Manager’s Diagnostics >Coredumps page now features a sorting function that allows users to sort core dumps by date and time, or by filename in ascending or descending order.  This should make it easier to spot configuration conflicts.
