The Red Wolf team is excited to present Ondexx 5.1!
Page Attachments
Ondexx 5.1 introduces Page Attachments, a new built-in page component. This is Ondexx’s answer to a question we’ve heard voiced by all our users, and even ourselves: how can we prevent human error during file management across a large number of users and files?
The Page Attachments page component allows a dynamic list of files to be managed within a page. These files can then be viewed, uploaded, and managed within that page. Using three new attachment-specific rights in combination with page viewing permissions, it is simple to control who is able to manage files and where, without giving them full access to file system.
The very nature of Page Attachments prevents human error with respect to mistakenly moving files and folders, making unneeded duplicates of files, and accessing files and folders without permission.

Other New Features
- The Page Version Classification workflow has been added, and can be enabled in Site Settings
- Used to further track and classify why revisions were made to pages
- Allows new Page Versions to be given a “Version-Type” from an Admin-created list, specifying what kind of changes were made
- These can be audited with three new Page Life Cycle Activity reports.
- For more information, refer to this help article: Using Page Version Classification
- The instance-wide Content Elements editor has been redesigned, with support for Display Domains and Languages
- Each content element now has a separate version for each supported language, allowing for localized versions to be created
- Display Domains are additional domains pointed at your Ondexx instance, which can have their own set of Content Elements. This can allow different content for users accessing the instance with a specific URL.
- For more information, refer to this help article: Domain Management in Ondexx
- Three new Page Life Cycle Activity Reports have been added.
- The Approval Activity Report lists each page that has been approved in the selected date range.
- The Release Manager Activity Report lists each page that has been scheduled for release in the selected date range
- The Sign-Off Activity Report lists each instance that a page was signed off on in the selected date range using the Content Sign-off Workflow.
- In Chapters, the Group by Labels option has been added, allowing you to group pages with the same label together when viewing a Chapter.
- This can be turned on by default for specific chapters in Chapter Settings
