Comala Workflows 5.8   Comala Workflows 5.8 is a feature update release. Feature Tour  |  Installation  |  Update / Change  |  Support What's New Other fixes and updates Workflow UI Loading Improvements: We made some tweaks to the way the workflow information is loaded on the page, reducing the number of requests going back to the server.  We've also fixed a bug that caused the workflows icon to be shown briefly on some pages that don't actually have a workflow enabled while things were loading. Fixed an issue that prevented adding reviewers when using the parameter  selectedapprover  in approvals (a  regression introduced in the 5.7.1 release .) Workflow parameter type username will now display a user's full name, not just their user name when searching for a user on a page. Approval assignment improvements: If a small group of users is to be selected from for assignment to an approval this list will be shown immediately without needing to search. We’ve also fixed some cases where a user that no longer exists in Confluence, but still specified by a value reference (like page author), was causing errors in existing workfows. Fixed an issue with the Workflows Tasks report pagination. Developer and API Updates Approval event interfaces have been updated to be more specific to different event types within workflows.
