Web Systems Release Notes: 2017.44

Some content has no related doctors. In this case, we will not display the "See Doctors" button in the search results for that content.

Added support for linking directly to other Condition Articles from inline links, rather than individual Concepts.

Created an XML site map for the YaleMedicine.org website per HealthCare Success request. This will also be used to target specific pages to send to SiteImprove.

Updated the Membership feed for the Human Practice Referring Physician App to limit results by organization.

"Remove from website" button did not work in YM Publishing Tool. The fix: There was a permission problem that had to be addressed with the user account that runs the publishing services. This issue affected the tool for a day.

The promo thumbnail filter on the Article Reporting page was not displaying all results. All results should now display correctly in the report.

In the YM Article Reporting tool, the filter to display only content that is published to the YM website appeared to show test content that is not on the website. In reviewing, this content was unpublished directly from SDL instead of the publishing tool and was therefore wrong in the report.

This allows YM editors to view all the synonyms that Kyruus supplies for each of its Concepts on http://prod.admin.profile.yale.edu/YaleMedicine/Concepts/Index

Added a filter to the YM Article Reporting tool so that the Content and Production teams can filter content by video, slideshows, infographics, or text-only articles.

Enabled content team to create new video stories and condition articles with videos without uploading the video poster. Poster can be added later by production team.

Using the "link" tool, you can now link directly to other condition articles. To use the tool, highlight the text to link; click the "link" button in the text editor; change the "page type" to "Concept Article" and then type the name of the article in the "Page Title" field. This will create a link directly to the article.

Granted YM Editing privileges for Katherine Dumalski, Steven Jacobs, Raheim Bundle, and Stewart Gandolf of HealthCare Success so that they can review YM content and provide feedback on possible updates to the tool.

To be consistent with Condition articles, renamed story "category" to "type" for categorizing video, infographic, slideshow, or text.

On October 25 at 9pm the Yale Medicine site became unavailable. The site was brought back up by a manual restart. Microsoft thinks the outage was the result of a failover that went wrong, and the app never restarted. This will be investigated further in TECH-2760 (Selected for Development) and TECH-2764 (Closed).

Made deploying to testing instances of Template 3 easier and faster.

Users were unable to use the photo cropping tool in the News module, this has been fixed.

We failed to sync with Workday on October 26. The issue was caused by a transient infrastructure failure, which was corrected and we re-synced manually. This issue was invisible to users.

There were changes in Oncore that resulted in failure when we ran the daily clinical trials import.

The "Include in my suffix" option from the Education and Training page in profiles was not functioning correctly.

Board Certifications were mostly missing from the Workday import. There was an issue in Workday that was preventing them from being included in our data. There are now 2,628 board certifications for 1,774 people.

Added a filter to the organizations management admin to let SuperAdmins show only YM organizations.

Added "vector biology" and "microbiome" to the Public Health Keywords in the profile system.

Discovery to see if we get Yale vanity titles from Workday that we can use to display business titles on profiles instead of asking people to manually input. Answer: We do not. Working with Workday to acquire them.

"Tagged Events" should be made the default page for the "Calendars" section within people profiles.

On the Tagged Events page, event titles were not clickable. A link was added to each event title so clicking the title leads to the edit page for the event.

Events can now be previewed before they are published.

Staywell content with forms do not have accessible HTML and should be removed from the YM website.

Accessibility fix: set 'submit' button type for Search button

Accessibility fix: Add description to input fields

Give Minsk QA team access to Yale Medicine development site in SiteImprove to check Accessibility fixes.

Accessibility fix: add accessible description for dropdowns in YM

Accessibility fix: remove unnecessary references to element IDs

Accessibility fix: specify language of page in YM

Accessibility fix: Element ID should be unique

Investigate issues related to the same links used for multiple different destinations

Accessibility fix: update 'Read more' text on the sidebar for screen readers

Investigate issues related to inappropriate link text for screen readers

The web address http://profile.yale.edu stopped working consistently which required an emergency move in DNS by Central ITS and a slight alteration in how we use this URL to direct traffic to the profile system.

We have added redundancy in a second location in the United States and one in Europe. This updates our continuous integration deployment code to push releases to all locations.

We currently deploy the YaleMedicine.org website to a single instance. This task is to change our deployment procedure so that we have three instances of it running. Two are located in the USA and one is located in Europe. In the event that one instance was to stop working, the website would automatically fail-over to one of the other instances so our websites remains running even during unexpected outages in one region of the world.

Add Content Delivery Network (CDN) infrastructure for the development and acceptance environments for the T3 YSM websites.

Some web requests are malicious in nature and we need a way to block them before the request makes it to the application. The unfortunate reality is that all websites are under almost constant attack from hackers so implementing this type of functionality helps to make our websites more secure.

Make updates to the Task Oriented Service (TOS) – the datalink between the YM Publishing Tool and SDL – to let the content team upload videos to articles and stories without adding a thumbnail image. This enables content editors to add videos and then let production add the image later.
