Google Integration:
* This past weekend, I pushed some changes to your servers, and if you are a full administrator, you may see a new Dashboard panel when you log in. You'll also see information called "Queue" that shows the status of the new Google Calendar system that is now integrated with your Luigi system (but not yet deployed, see below).
* Users can use their standard Google login to automatically synchronize their Luigi calendar with their personal Google Calendar (or any Google Cal they own). All of the information that you provide or change about Events or Activities will immediately be visible and up-to-date on their Google Cal.
* Your users may or may not choose to use this feature, but it is the first of several improvements this year that will give organizations tools to interact with users, vendors, clients, etc. without having them login to Luigi for every task. I'll have more about this in coming updates.
* The Google integration is ready, but the module is going through some Google red-tape to get it authenticated as an official app for security. As soon as that's complete, I'll talk to you all individually to show it to you and to see if you'd like me to flip it on for your organization.
Other changes:
- Fixed a problem where the calendar was having trouble scaling properly on some models of iPhone).
- Fixed a problem where the month name was not displaying on some calendar views.
- Fixed a problem where the Daily Calendar was displaying fine but not printing to paper properly.
- Fixed an issue where BCC'd emails were not showing in the Email Log.
- Fixed an issue on the Personnel page where files could not always be deleted.
- Updated some styling in mobile views (most non-admin users see Luigi on their mobile devices).
- Lots of little bug fixes for things that many of you brought to my attention during summer festival season!
Google Calendar integration: The Google Calendar integration system has been completely re-written and is currently in the testing phase. This new integration allows you to authenticate once using your Google sign-in (OAuth), and your Luigi schedule and information will automatically sync with your personal Google calendar and stay up-to-date.
If you're a Luigi user/musician, you will only see your own calendar. However, if you're an administrator, you will have access to a Luigi calendar that includes all Luigi activities.
We will be rolling out this feature gradually, organization by organization, as it undergoes testing. You can expect to see it available soon.
