Is this update being held for fixes? We are hosted and I am not seeing that we were updated yet.
Heather, yes, from what I understand, they are waiting for this week's build to correct a few issues that were discovered with last week's build. The changes to Aeries to support Nonbinary Gender values were extensive and a few items were missed.

That's what I figured but I wanted to make sure! Thanks for the response Cam!

(2) Announcement Manager - Users must now select an explicit end-date for all recurring announcements.
(3) Member Listings - Emergency Contacts are now clearly labeled in all member listings, details and reports. Emergency Contacts are only contacted in the case of an announcement and will not be contacted for attendance or any other triggered auto-alerts.
(4) Direct Messages - Emergency Contacts no longer display when using the "Add Guardians" feature for Direct Message conversations. Also, the placeholder text contained within the Recipients fields now displays contextual guidance for to whom a particular user type may initiate a conversation. Admin Role: "Enter the name of a student, guardian, teacher, staff, or administrator." Staff : "Enter the name of a teacher, staff, or administrator." Teacher: "Enter the name of your student, their guardian(s) or a colleague." Parent: "Enter the name of your student or their teacher(s)." Student: "Enter the name of your parent or your teacher(s)." Also, fixed a bug where attachments within Direct Message email notifications were not displaying a link to the stored file. Also, fixed a bug where a student would not be able to reply to a direct message initiated by an admin role.
(5) Reporting - Fixed an issue where an incorrect email subject line was appearing in announcement reporting but was correct in the actual emails.
(6) Private Groups - Resolved an issue where a group creator was unable to add additional members if the group members had been previously deleted.
(7) Groups Dashboard - Within the Groups Dashboard, the "Members" column count now includes any Admin members of the group.
(8) Group Details - Within the Groups Detail view, members with numerous connections no longer flow outside of the row.
(9) Social Media - Updated the new Social Media feature to match other search functions in the application to search for users only when more than 3 characters are entered. Also, an issue has been fixed where the announcement status would not match when the identical announcement was sent to 2 separate Social Media accounts.
(10) Announcement Details - Within the Feed, Announcements no longer display 'viewed' counts in favor of the existing "Viewed" and "Not Viewed" data displayed in the sidebar, accessed by clicking the 'Eyeball' icon below an announcement.
(11) Triggered Announcements - The email subject lines for all district triggered auto-alerts has been adjusted to reflect the type of triggered announcement. EX: Attendance = "An attendance announcement from [group]", Grade = "A grade change announcement from [group]", Lunch Balance = "A lunch balance announcement from [group]".
(12) Announcement CSV Imports - Fixed a bug where CSV announcements were not pulling in language prefs for users and therefore announcement creators were not able to access translations.
(13) Contact Language Preferences - The Aeries contact record's language preference is now used when initializing accounts. If that value is blank, the student Correspondence Language will be used.
(14) Emails - Email notifications will no longer be classified as 'phishing' by Google mail servers/clients by updating the header information.
(15) Groups - Fixed an issue where the dashboard/Groups/group detail view would be blank after creating a new group.
(16) Announcements - Fixed an issue where the presence of an ampersand (&) would be misinterpreted as code and display as HTML characters.
(17) Feed - Within the Feed, Announcements no longer display 'viewed' counts in favor of the existing "Viewed" and "Not Viewed" data displayed in the sidebar, accessed by clicking the 'Eyeball' icon below an announcement.
(18) Aeries Student Groups - Imported Aeries Student groups will now be assigned the correct group type.
