We’re giving the gift of updates this month, with a ton of brand new features and fixes that you’re sure to love. We’re working hard on streamlining processes & workflows to make things easier for you!

Students & Tutors

• Student Groups are now relabeled as “Group Tags” throughout TutorBird, and have added functionality including color coding & being able to search Families & Invoices by group tag. For more information on Group Tags and how to use them, check out our blog post here.
• We continue to streamline tutor privileges by visually removing options that tutors without privileges don’t have the ability to change
• We fixed an issue that was preventing students who pay a flat monthly rate from having their name display properly in a tutor’s payroll table
• We resolved an error that would occur when attempting to assign a tutor to an inactive student
• Tutors can now view their own payroll attachments (eg. paystubs) regardless of their privileges to “add/edit expenses & other revenue”
• We fixed an issue that was preventing all available group tags to appear in a list if the amount created was over 25 total

Calendar & Attendance

• We fixed an issue that was preventing the recent lesson notes history window from closing properly on mobile devices
• We resolved an error that was affecting the creation of categories from locations outside of the Calendar

Invoicing, Billing & Payments

• We updated the “Add Expense or Other Revenue” dropdown to be a more user-friendly grid design (similar to the “Add Transaction” options)
• We fixed an issue that was occurring when attempting to delete a custom expense category tied to mileage
• We updated the Families & Invoices page with brand new features, including the ability to search families by group tag & column sorting
• We upgraded our PayPal integration to utilize the benefits of PayPal Commerce Platform
• We resolved an error that would occur when attempting to return to a Family Account from the Student Details page

Website Builder

• We fixed an issue that would prevent the ability to switch to an external website if a CNAME record was absent
• We fixed an issue that would, in rare cases, prevent the “unsaved changes” warning from appearing when leaving the website builder
• We fixed an issue that was preventing stock images from being uploaded to the website builder

General/Other

• We added additional functionality to right-click on certain links and open them in a new tab (this also includes shift+click and CTRL+click)
• We updated our membership workflow to make it significantly easier for members to make changes to their membership
• In-app notifications are now automatically marked as “read” after viewing them
• The cancel button in certain dialog windows was clickable during a save – we have resolved this so it’s disabled until the save is safely completed
• We fixed an issue that was preventing reports from opening when certain browser extensions were installed
• We upgraded some pop-up windows to improved slide-in windows in multiple locations (including tutors & student attendance records)
• Various cosmetic tweaks throughout
