What's new in Claromentis 8.5 (Stanmer)

Public News | 2 October 2018 by Michael Christian release

 

We’re so happy to announce the latest version of Claromentis, which is brimmed to the top with new features. We have a brand new app and we have a brand new naming convention. So from all of us here at Claromentis, welcome to Claromentis “Stanmer”!

New Features

 

Better navigation between Admin panel and frontend app

Intranet administrators often need to switch between using the frontend of an app and its corresponding Admin panel. We’ve now made that process 3x faster (we timed it) by adding a direct link that lets you switch between frontend and backend.

 

Design Customisation

Your intranet main menu can now be displayed as a side menu, ideal for those who are more accustomed to the layout of mobile apps. You can also expand the layout of your intranet to “full width”, which is great for users with large computer monitors.
