===Major Updates===
 
====Enforcing Deny Permissions for Portal Pages on Common Role====
Changed the behavior of the '''Deny Access ''' permission setting for pages on the '''Common ''' portal. This setting will now deny access to the portal page for any roles selected. Previously, the '''Deny Access ''' permission hid the link from view in the main header menu but the page was still accessible via a portal shortcut. If you want to hide a portal page but still allow people to access the portal page via a shortcut, toggle off '''Display As Header Link'''. To see the affected setting go to '''Global Settings ''' > '''Users ''' tab > '''Portals ''' > '''Common ''' > edit Edit a '''Portal Page ''' > '''Permissions ''' tab.

====Deprecated Password Variables====
We will be deprecating several password variables for security reasons in 2023. For example, sending passwords as plain text via emails is not a secure practice. If your system contains any of these deprecated variables, they will display as plain text. Deprecated variables include: <code>@password@</code>, <code>@checkportalpassword@</code>, <code>@checkactivatedpassword@</code>, <code>@randompassword@</code> and <code>@passwordresetlink@</code>. System Administrators must change existing email templates to use password activation links that will send the user to a page where the user can set their password. The syntax for password links is https://<code>@url@@activationlink@</code>. Emails that need to be updated are located at '''Menu Icon ''' > '''Global Settings ''' > '''Security ''' tab > '''Password and Activation Policies ''' > Click the ''' Activation Emails ''' tab in the left navigation. Another location where these variables may be present is on user signup pages. To find user signup email templates go to Menu icon > Global Settings > Communications > System Email Templates > Search for “New User”.

====Added Ability to Create Configuration Folder on Autoloader Pages====
Added ability to add a new configuration folder directly from the autoloader settings page.

Added a Failed tab to the E-Signatures Queue to make it easier to see any e-signature documents that failed.

To see this tab, go to Global Settings > Integrations > E-signature Queue > Failed tab.
