TL;DR; Summary by Kiril
We've started working on restructuring levels A1, A2 and 1.0 with a few restructured lessons there. The old ones were too large. We've also published a and completed a few lessons for Learn At home - These are the Turtle, Motorcycle and Comet.
A big improvement on the part of the platform is the ability to see where in which course and in which lesson is a given material and tutorial used. We've almost finalized Groups-1.0 and it is possible to administer your groups through the fllcasts platform.

[Categorization] Typo in tag fllcasts-documenation
The tag is renamed to "FLLCasts Documentation"
[Content Creation] On search a video is visible even if it is without picture
This one is fixed and no tutorials are shown
[Content-Creation-2.0] Remove courses from content that can be added to a course section
Content refs can no longer link courses to course sections. Courses are not supported as a content type right now.
[Content-Creation-2.0] Show for each tutorial in which courses it is referred

[Groups-1.0] Add information on how to register second sibling in a group?
A tutorial about how to register a sibling was made.
[Groups-1.0] Accept invitation page lacks information about user name
Invitation accept page and email had its texts improved. They were previously fixed and then broken again, but the real problem was finally found. Also, now you can see the username of the user that is accepting the invitation on the accept page.
[Groups-1.0] Export group information to be ready for personal credential cards
When you are a supervisor, you can go to a group's page (for example "/groups/1") and in the admin pane there is a button "Export Retiffy CSV". When pressed, it exports the user data of the students in the group to a CSV that is ready for use with Retiffy.
[Groups-1.0] Number of vacancies must have a color
It is implemented on the groups page, that when the amount of free student spaces is different the color of the number is different. When there are 0 free spaces the size of the queue is shown.

Added additional information for the Student Name, Parent Email, Password and Parent Phone fields which you can find when creating a group user or enrolling yourself into a group.

[Groups-1.0] When adding users to groups and mandatory fields are required than allow for the mandatory fields to fill
When clicking next the text that says "These are the users with the given email" is hidden.
When a group staff enrols an user to group. They can change the mandatory information that is provided with the group user.

Some users were shown errors when trying to change their password or account information. All users can now do those things successfully.
[Groups-1.0, Bug] Fix invalid emails and usernames in production database
There were users whose usernames were the same as their email. This was causing issues. Those usernames now have their usernames changed. @ and everything to the right of @ is removed from their username. For example, a user that has both an email and an username "[email protected]" now has their username changed to "test".
[Groups-1.0, Bug] Course section update crashes when there are empty params and you submit with the content adding submit button
Fixed a bug where the course section edit page would show an error when the user pressed the "Update" button without adding any content.
