A round-up of all improvements and changes to the Buzz platform in versions v3.0.247 available on September 2, 2021.
Coming soon to Buzz!
We announce significant upcoming features and changes in a standalone Coming soon article that appears at the top of the What's new section.
SpeechStream text-to-speech tool enabled in Publish Anywhere
We have enhanced Publish Anywhere to integrate with SpeechStream so that end-users can have activity content read to them by the SpeechStream Text-to-speech tool. You can enable SpeechStream in Domain settings.
Note: Make sure you set up your account with Texthelp before checking this box. If you don't, users might see SpeechStream buttons that don't work.

Fixes
In this release, we also:
- Updated the assessment calculator to report an 'Undefined' result when dividing by zero, similar to a standard calculator.
- Fixed an issue where some browser and OS combinations would report a navigation error when attempting to view a course activity.
- Resolved an issue where some users were incorrectly prompted to verify the email entered in their User settings > Notification preferences when that email matched the user email attached to their account that had already been verified.
