This release focused on improvements to performance. Most of these changes were behind the scenes, but one major change was the addition of a Save Button on the participant card. This ensures that the screen is only refreshing when the Save button is clicked which drastically reduces screen-loading times.
Participant Card Save Button
When you make changes to certain fields on a participant’s profile card, you’ll now click on a new “Save” button to save those changes. This makes profile cards and pages load more quickly!
If you don’t want to save your changes, you can click the “Cancel” button. Before your changes are removed, or discarded, you will need to confirm that change. If you click on another page or participant profile card before hitting the “Save” or “Cancel” buttons, Ripple will ask you if you want to save your changes. Once you select your option, you will automatically route to the selected page or participant profile card.
