    About Monthly Release Notes

    Campus Cafe continually deploys new versions of its platform with enhancements to the platform. Below provides an ongoing list of updates to the platform. For notes prior to this calendar year, visit Archived Monthly Release Notes.

    Release Schedule

    Campus Cafe typically deploys new versions throughout the first week of each month to cloud customer. No action on behalf of the customer is required. The platform will be unavailable for roughly 15 minutes during the upgrade. For on-premise customers, Campus Cafe provides notification with directions on obtaining the latest version.

    Version Updates

    User Account Level SMTP Email Authentication will be Required by October to Send Emails from Campus Cafe

    Microsoft Server email relay platform has begun rolling out blocking outbound SMTP connections on TCP port 25. Microsoft claims this is to ensure better security for Microsoft partners and customers, protect Microsoft’s Azure platform, and conform to industry security standards. 

    What this means is that in order to prepare for email out of the Campus Cafe system in the near future when Microsoft completely cuts off the use of port 25, each user that will be using the email functions from their address will need to input their password into their email record on their account, and unauthenticated email aliasing from a domain will no longer be acceptable.

    In order to prepare for this change we have added new "User Specific" SMTP Authentication configuration.

    Documentation Translation Added:
    At the bottom of each page in the documentation website, you can use the now integrated Google Translate function to translate the page to hundreds of different languages

    Version: February (Expected Release Date: 3/4/24-3/8/24)

    New Knowledge Base
    This month we will be switching to a new knowledge base and can be found at the following link: Knowledge Base - Campus Cafe (atlassian.net)
    This knowledge base will connect with our ticket system to provide suggestions while submitting a ticket through the customer service portal, as well as, providing quick links to the documentation inside a ticket.

    Version: January (Expected Release Date: 2/5/23-2/10/23)

    New Year, New Menu!
    With the January update to Campus Cafe comes a brand new Menu.  Many of our customers have been asking for a redesign to more easily find the different pages to navigate the system.

    Although this will be an adjustment for all users as the location for many of the links may have changed, the options have now been appropriately categorized into appropriate sub-headings.

    A user may also contract the menu option titles by default; with mouse-over the menu will auto expand.

    Note For On-Premise Customers:
    With this Release you must upgrade your servers to use Java version 11 or greater to take advantage of newer security measures. On Premise Customers must update in order to prevent any lapse in service.

    Download link for appropriate version: Download

    Cloud customers do not need to adjust any settings as their instances have already been upgraded
    NEW Ticket System Alert!
    We will transition our ticketing system from Fogbugz to the JIRA Service Platform for tickets. All emailing notifications for submitted tickets will come from the new system.
    If a user logs into Fogbugz as a community user to correspond with a submitted ticket, we will no longer be notified. 
    Please be sure to make all correspondence through the new JIRA portal or through emailing support@campuscafesoftware.com .

    The new system will allow you to login and track the tickets that you have submitted and review the current status of those tickets.
    You will also receive notifications on the status of those tickets including when those tickets are resolved.
    Below is the link to the new Help Desk Portal. Here, you can submit a ticket and/or create a portal account: https://campuscafesoftware.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portals
    To submit a ticket through the portal start by clicking on the "Campus Cafe Support" as shown here:

    Please note: In this transition phase, we will still retain Fogbugz for reference in order to make sure the details of your issues are not lost. However, when viewing the transitioned tickets in the JIRA system you may or may not see the entire conversation thread of current Fogbugz tickets.
