Manula Changelog: What's New in the Manula software (Page 7)

This is (or was) by far the most common request from our customers:

* Can I get notifications by email if people comment on my topics?

Finally, here’s the answer: Yes, this is now possible!

In the Manual Settings screen, on the Feedback tab, enable the “Email notifications …” checkbox. (now enabled by default). And if you wish, enter 1 or more email addresses to receive the notifications. If you leave this box empty, the notifications will be sent to the account email address.

The default or customized copyright footer is now also show in the generated PDF version:

• It is now always shown on the PDF cover page.
• It is optionally also included in the footer of every page, using the new setting “Show copyright text on all pages in PDF” (found in the Account level Customizations page).

Another tweak in the category “Why-Didn’t-We-Think-Of-This-Earlier” :

• The “PDF” button in the editor now shows a little exclamation mark icon whenever your generated PDF version is out-of-date.

A small but useful addition to your Manula Topic Editor:

Next and Previous buttons, for easily iterating through your topic list.

Enjoy!

One of the more common questions we get at Manula Support is:

“Can I upload PDF files and offer them as downloads from my manual?”

Our answer has always been:

“No sorry, you cannot upload PDF files, but you can upload them to your own website or a 3rd party file hosting service, then link to them using a regular website link”.

But as of today, our answer to this question will be:

“Yes, you can! Just use our Document Manager to upload your files to our server, then easily insert links to the files into your topics :-)”

Now live in your account. Enjoy!

Just introduced a new settings in the Manual Settings screen, on the PDF tab:
Show company name (Yes/No)

Switching this setting off lets you hide your account’s Company Name from the generated PDF version, from both the PDf’s cover sheet and the headers of all pages (top left).
