Alpha & Beta Features

Beta Features

The Beta Features section, found under the gear icon in the top right of the admin, provides the ability to enable/disable current beta features before they are implemented into the platform.

Beta Features may break current functionality, cause loss of data, or change how they function at any time. These are not stable features and are not advised to be use in production.

Current Beta features include:

There are no current beta features.

Alpha Features

Features in Alpha are under internal flags but can be enable upon request for any of your trial sites if you wish to explore and test the features.

There are no current alpha features.

Release Flow

Alpha and Beta Features will typically move through a 2-3 stage release cycle. Meaning, if a beta feature is released in a Backlog Release (eg: version 5.4.0) it will be available in the admin to enable/disable by the site admin user and/or reseller. Then, in the next Backlog Release (eg: version 5.4.1) the beta feature will move to an alpha state - enabled by default in the CMS backend and adjustable only via support ticket request. Finally, in a further Backlog Release (eg: version 5.4.2) the alpha feature will become a permanent and enabled feature of the CMS.

This process allows for individual reseller use-case testing, feedback, enhancements and bug fixes without affecting live sites and existing implementations and provides resellers with an opportunity to test and adjust any affected implementations.

Some features will be released firstly to an alpha state, bypassing the beta stage, simply due to their nature and how they affect the CMS functionality. In any case, all alpha and beta features will be reported in the corresponding Release Notes.
