  • Note: The format of the licence file has changed with this release. You must get a re-issued licence file from Segue Consulting for the plug-ins to work.
  • Previously, the Internal ID was appended to the end of each topic that was imported. This is now optional and can be turned on/off using the Include internal ID in topic description check box on the Import Settings page of the wizard.
  • Bug fix: When attempting to set topic descriptions or headings that were longer than 255 characters, these fields would be blank. These are now truncated to 255 characters (the limitation of Author-it for how long these fields can be).
  • Log files now have the name format of aitextrapi_[plug-in name]_[Author-it user name]_[yyyy-mm-dd].log.
  • Log file older than 30 days are automatically deleted.
