# Core 7.4 Release Notes

September 4, 2025

This release delivers a mix of stability improvements and a new preview feature. Teams will notice smoother collaboration, stronger security, and fewer workflow interruptions, while clients can optionally test **Visitor Links**—a new way to securely share with external recipients.

## Bug Fixes & Improvements

- **Smarter Commenting in Packages**  
  Comments made while the side panel is closed now correctly attach to the active package discussion—no more isolated threads.

- **Cleaner Discussion Creation**  
  The legacy “Private” toggle has been removed from the New Discussion modal, reducing confusion since all Discussions are private.

- **More Accurate Action Logs**  
  Action logging now captures all categorize and tag removal events, ensuring better visibility.

- **Smoother Mobile Linking**  
  Opening Core links in Safari on iPhone now behaves as expected—no more endless redirects to the App Store.

- **Stronger PDF Protections**  
  Watermarked PDFs respect “no print” restrictions, providing better security and compliance.

- **Improved Search Filters Display**  
  The filter pane now properly displays production names, even when the pane is narrow or the list is short.

- **Consistent Production Dropdown**  
  The Inbox production dropdown now fits more readily above the Inbox folders and the expanded dropdown stays visible, regardless of configuration settings.

- **Cleaner List Mode Display**  
  Unnecessary Quick Share and folder string clutter no longer appears in List Mode, keeping views clear and focused.

- **Resizable Columns Restored in List View**  
  Users can now freely expand the Name column in List View, making it easier to work with long file names without truncation.

- **Reliable Automatic Logouts**  
  For specific client sites, session timeouts once again log users out as expected, ensuring accounts remain secure when inactive.

- **Smooth Loading of Large Packages**  
  List View now properly loads more than 40 files without stalling, so teams can review large packages without interruption.

- **Streamlined Share Panel Layout**  
  The package type selector now defaults to a dropdown, consolidating real estate and leaving more space for previewing settings on smaller screens.

- **Support for New iPhone Image Formats**  
  HEIC images from iPhone 16 Pro Max devices now process correctly, ensuring compatibility with the latest iOS photo formats.

- **Improved Dark Mode Visibility**  
  PDF passwords in the share panel now display in a clearer font color for easier readability in dark mode.

## New Feature (Opt-In Preview): Visitor Links (POC 1)

We’re introducing **Visitor Links Phase 1** as a **Proof of Concept**, available for clients who wish to test it. This feature is **off by default** and can be enabled by request.

**What it does:**

- Adds a new package type for sharing with external recipients.
- Provides recipients with a simplified playback experience through a lightweight guest portal.
- Includes baseline security: session timeouts and package expiration dates.

**What’s not included yet (coming in POC 2+):**

- Commenting and collaboration in the guest portal
- Approvals (thumbs up, status)
- Inbox filtering and visibility for Visitor Links
- Ability for senders to send links to themselves
- Security features including link limits, a maximum link window, and 48-hour link refresh requirement.

🔍 Visitor Links is intended as a preview. Feedback from early testers will directly shape future phases, which will expand collaboration features and strengthen security options. For users who are testing Visitor Links, a more detailed preview will be provided.
