Information:

Ally 2.14.3 | Release to production: June 19, 2025 

 

Bug Fixes and Improvements: 
 

  • Improved Ally’s audio alternative format conversion for Office Math in Word documents by implementing Mathjax language support with Speech Rule Engine to ensure mp3 files are read using the correct language (when available).  
  • Fixed an issue with the Usage Report export where in some cases Admins would be faced with a timeout when attempting to download the excel report for larger datasets which could result in an incomplete or corrupt file.  
  • Fixed an issue in all LMS integrations where in some cases images uploaded with alphanumeric characters in the description or uploaded with a description matching the file name of the image would incorrectly show 25% and “Perfect” in the Instructor Feedback.  
  • Improved the input validation on the image description field within the Instructor Feedback to not allow random strings of non-alphanumeric characters.
