Review new IBM® Connections
features and functions.
IBM Connections
5.0 includes the following enhancements:
- Community owners can now invite external users (people from outside
your organization) to join restricted communities.
- Authorized users can share files with external users.
- When you delete a community, the community and all data that is
associated with it are moved to a trash area. You can restore the
community, provided it is not purged from trash.
- File storage for communities is increased to 5 GB. You can share,
edit, and collaborate on a broader range of content with this expanded
capacity.
- You can @mention users in every application in IBM Connections.
- Use #hashtags in comments about status updates. Hashtags help
other users to find your content.
- In the new Globalization settings page, you can enable bidirectional
language support, choose the direction of user-generated text, and
set your preferred calendar.
- You can paste or drag-and-drop images into activities, blogs,
forums, and wikis.
- When you type a link in a rich text field, it is automatically
converted into a clickable URL.
- You can subscribe to Atom feeds from any page in any application.
- If the new Gallery app is enabled, you can preview files without
opening them.
