  • Improvement for Mobile
    • When participants take a survey on a mobile device, the survey page will auto-scroll whenever selecting a value for a drop-down or radio button field.

Improvements

  •  Record Drop-Down List (on Add/Edit Records, and filters for Logging, Data Quality, Survey Invitation Log, etc)

    • For projects with more than 5000 records, drop-down record list  revert to displaying an auto-suggest textbox to allow the user to manually enter the record name (rather than attempting to display an extremely long drop-down). This should make these pages load much faster and also make them easier to use in projects containing many records.

  • User Management

      • Password recovery questions are no longer used in the process of resetting a password. To reset a password, REDCap will use a a two factor authentication via email.
