🗓️ Release date:
This release of Lively Blogs adds the News Agent, a Rovo agent that summarizes new blog posts for you.
News Agent for Rovo
-
Ask the new News Agent in Rovo what's new and get a short summary of recent blog posts.
-
Choose between personalized news based on your My Feed rules and all news of the company.
-
Narrow the summary down to a topic, or to a period of up to 30 days.
-
The agent only includes blog posts you are allowed to see and links to each post and its author.
Improvements
-
Space restrictions can now exclude spaces, so you can show content from all spaces except the ones you list.
Bug Fixes
-
Macros set to content type Page without a pinned content label now show pages and respect the parent pages setting, instead of showing blog posts.
-
Fixed results of an outdated search occasionally mixing into the list of blog posts.
Security
-
Only Confluence administrators can change the Lively Blogs global settings.
-
The content type and number of items settings are now validated before searching; invalid values fall back to the defaults.
-
My Feed rules are now checked for valid values and size limits when they are saved.
-
Attachment file names are now safely encoded when teaser images are loaded.
-
External cover images are only loaded from Unsplash, the source of the Confluence cover image gallery.
-
The News Agent treats the content of blog posts strictly as data and ignores instructions written into it.
Maintenance
-
Improved internal build tooling.
-
Made deployments more reliable.
