Landing page refresh modified to avoid frequent reloads
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
Approximately every two weeks, clients were able to login but it was not possible to work as the landing page refreshed constantly until all of the nodes were rebooted and the issue was cleared. Investigation indicated the frequent reloads were related to the cacheing of the operator details, and this has been resolved by updating the datapage reload strategy based on 'when' so frequent reloads will be avoided.

iOS file attachment works in Safari

Adding handling for custom image on S3 storage space
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
When using an S3 repository for Content storage, trying to create a new space with a custom image did not upload the image. Investigation showed that when attachment storage is configured as an external repository, the pyAttachStream property which is used to create the the thumbnail was getting cleaned as part of the saving logic. This has been resolved by adding an update that will hold the attachStream value in a local property before calling attachment save.

Unable to delete the Spaces after loggin off
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
If a Space was created and then deleted in the same login session, the delete worked as expected. If the Space was created and then actions were taken to delete it on a subsequent login, the Space was not actually deleted. Investigation showed this was due to v8.1 not having a stream/blob (PZPVSTREAM) in the pc_work_group table, and this behavior was the result of extra properties included on the page. To resolve this, the extra properties on the page will be removed before the obj-save/commit .

Corrected Microsoft Internet Explorer displaying checkboxes as sliders
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
Checkboxes were displaying as sliders in Microsoft Internet Explorer version11.1304.17134.0 due to Microsoft Internet Explorer returning Table pc 2.0. Since Pega HTML class includes tablet, .tablet related styles were getting picked up and displaying the checkboxes in tablet mode. To resolve this, a check has been added to pyIsTablet to evaluate correctly at runtime.

Resolved Clear Cache error for mobile client
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
When attempting to clear local storage while logged into the Mobile Client, the error message "You need to be able to connect to the server in order to clear the storage" appeared. This was traced to the application being configured to disable a user's web session immediately after log in, and was due to the "Clear Cache" functionality failing while attempting an AJAX request to invoke the server's "pzAmIOnline" activity. While there was a workaround of using the check box "Access group requires a connection for portions of the application", this has been resolved by updating the Settings - Clear Cache functionality in order be able to detect if it's online in a different way.

Security added to retrieving operator list by URL extension

Corrected mobile password control behavior on failed validation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
Given a section on mobile where the out-of-the-box password control was used on a textbox with input field of type Password to set a new password, failed validation on the field caused the cursor on the input field to jump to the left. It was then not possible to delete the text or correct the placement of the cursor. This was traced to a missing type check for password in isTextBox(), and has been corrected.

Pulse @mention will avoid triggering search request if no suggestion list is available
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
Search threads were causing requestor Lock Exceptions due to poorly optimized queries sent to ElasticSearch when a Pulse mention was attempting to look up a person (e.g. "@"+typing) and the search of case objects to match to that search were performing poorly. To resolve this, an update has been made to avoid triggering requests if the suggestions list is not available for the search query.

Local user lookup modifed to use requestor level data page to improve performance
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
In a system with many users (over 40k), attempting to search for a user to send a private message was taking an excessive amount of time. Analysis found that all of the users were being loaded at once in a page list of type Code-Pega-List. This led to errors indicating the Page List property had more elements than the specified threshold, but pagination could not be added as the activity and Report Definition are final. To improve performance, this process has been modified to use a data page at the requestor level instead.
