In this release of BLOX CMS (version 1.97.0), we’re adding OpenID Connect logout support and Audience+ user data feeds, and fixing a range of issues across dashboards, social posting, user profiles, and image handling. This release also includes many updates required for the upcoming NXT 0.30.0 release.
Features & Improvements
OpenID Connect Logout Support
BLOX now supports OpenID Connect RP-initiated logout. Connected applications (relying parties) can now sign readers out of BLOX. This is especially useful for third-party integrations: when a reader signs out of an app that uses BLOX to sign them in, that app can now sign them out of BLOX too, so they don’t stay signed in on your site.

Activity Log Retention
Activity log entries are now kept for 24 months. Older entries are removed automatically each day. (TNCMS-556572)
Bugs
Fixed an issue where the “Notification message target” field was empty for draft Notifier posts created from draft assets in BLOX NXT. (TNCMS-556152)
Fixed an issue where connecting a second Nextdoor business page owned by the same user replaced the existing account instead of adding a new one. (TNCMS-556757)
Fixed an issue where Bluesky accounts could fail to reconnect. (TNCMS-556648)
The remaining references to Twitter have been removed from Notifier. (TNCMS-555902)
Fixed an issue where the “Reset My Password” button in password reset emails could display incorrectly or not appear in some web-based email clients. (TNCMS-556445)
Fixed an issue where clearing a user profile field, such as the tagline, byline, or about text, didn’t remove the existing value. (TNCMS-555979)
Fixed an issue where the Views by Content Topic dashboard module could fail to display data. (TNCMS-556674)
Fixed an issue where some HLS videos could be incorrectly identified as having no video. (TNCMS-556730)
Fixed an issue where a portrait image uploaded as an admin avatar appeared rotated after saving. (TNCMS-556657)
Fixed an issue where anonymous blocks on the same page all used the same HTML id attribute. Anonymous blocks no longer output an ID by default, and you can set one with the id parameter of cms.block. (TNCMS-556783)
Fixed an issue where setting an asset type query field on a block in NXT block management could produce an error. (TNCMS-556805)
Fixed an issue where replacing an image in BLOX NXT image assets didn’t update its high-resolution version. (TNCMS-556675)
Fixed an issue where BLOX NXT could open a different default site at login, depending on the data center, for users with no default site set. (TNCMS-556749)
