Phonism's Latest Update: Base Templates, VDM Enhancements, and More!
Phonism's latest update brings user-defined base templates for easier customization, VDM firmware compatibility checks, and the ability to create non-login user accounts. Improvements include optimized custom config merging, better import configuration mapping, and several key bug fixes for password validation, device management, and large CSV imports.
💡 New Features:
User-Defined Base Templates
You spoke, and we listened! Administrators can now define base templates in Phonism. These base templates allow lower-level users to create their own templates, using the base as a starting point for customization.
VDM Device Compatibility
The Visual Device Manager (VDM) can now automatically determine which device firmware versions are compatible with the features/functions it performs, helping to ensure that device button configurations are valid across firmware versions.
🌟 Enhancements:
Import Config:
We’ve improved the mapping of imported configuration settings to Phonism’s form fields, ensuring that unknown settings are correctly added to the device’s custom configuration area.
Custom Config Merging
Enhancements have been made to the custom configuration merging process, ensuring that configurations from multiple templates are merged correctly and formatted properly.
Users Without Login Access
You asked for it, and we delivered! You can now create user accounts without allowing them to log into the system. The “Login Access” toggle is ON by default, and this feature is also available via our API
