Jun 30, 2017 - MoreCompetency Inc announces June 2017 website training and help resource updates
June 2017 Website Updates
The Framework Release 7 for AutoCAD Civil 3D 2018 was released at the very end of May.
Release 7 Framework products now support AutoCAD Civil 3D 2018
Website Move and Site SSL Conversion
- We moved the website to a new hosting provider early in June.
We also completed our conversion to SSL and the more secure https protocol.
You should get niffty padlock symbols in all reasonably current browsers. - You should experience better performance on all pages, but we continue to work to improve that.
We tested and got a significant performance boost in the first couple of days. - Your connections to the site whether you login or not are certainly more secure.
- The site no longer supports old versions of IE earlier than IE 10.
Known Site Move Issues
- For a few days we manually authorized website registrations.
Automated Site registration email confirmation has been restored.
If you tried to register and failed to gain access, please let us know. - We had a few broken links, but all the known ones have been updated.
- We had a few reported email bounce back errors after the site move which we believe have all been resolved.
