Feature updates
1. Documents accessed from NHS App
We have updated our integration with the NHS App so that documents accessed from the NHS App now open inline within PKB, rather than requiring users to download them first.
2. Removal of timeline from Events & Messages page
We have removed the timeline bar from the Events & Messages page to better align with the latest design and user experience improvements.
3. Authentication: Extended lockout coverage
Password lockout protections now apply when granting access to third-party apps. Following multiple failed login attempts, there is a mandatory 5-minute wait period before you can try again. This ensures consistent account protection across all login methods.
Bug fixes
1. Patient timeline events now correctly display in the professional's local time zone
We have resolved an issue to ensure that patient timeline events are displayed in the professional’s local time zone, as defined in their profile.
2. Non-ASCII characters in coordinator email address invite
We have resolved an issue where the system would crash when an organisation administrator added a coordinator with a non-ASCII character in their email address. Now, a warning message correctly identifies the invalid email address when the invite button is clicked.
3. Events & Messages breadcrumb navigation update
We’ve updated the breadcrumb trail on the patient view of message threads within the Events & Messages page. The ‘Events & Messages’ breadcrumb is now a clickable hyperlink that takes user back to the main Events & Messages page for easier navigation.
