Enhancements
Key Features
In-house Increff Captcha
This approach is less secure but more robust compared to Google recaptcha.
We have created distorted previews containing 5 random alphanumeric characters. Both capital and small case letters are included.
User can refresh if he / she is facing any difficulty in recognizing the characters.
Everytime the captcha is fetched in a random order.
Sample preview of Increff CAPTCHA
Limited Forgot Password Link Access
Previously, a user can re-use the link sent for a resetting password multiple times to reset his / her password.
Now it has been limited to just 5 times.
Bug Fixes
Resource Caching
We have implemented a dynamic cache busting mechanism which enforces the browser to load the latest version of the ressources files.
No need to do a hard refresh on any page.
Users not able to Login
Newly registered users were not allowed to login.
This was mainly due to the wrong value set for login mode of that user during registration.
Super admin created admin users not able to login on newly created organizations for the 1st time.
This was again due to the wrong value set for login mode during organization creation.
Wrong password limit not reset on successful login.
When a user enters the wrong password, the user gets locked out and he needs to contact the admin to reset his password.
Previously If a user enters the right password before his account gets locked out the retry count was not getting reset. This has been fixed.
Multiple Application Roles Assignment
Previously, the roles selected resets on change of application when viewing the roles assigned to an user.
The state will now be retained and on submit all changes will be recorded.
New option of All Roles added for viewing all roles.
The user role popup will always show action buttons Submit & Cancel even if the content is large and will show inside scroll for better usability.
