Hello everyone,

We are proud to announce the immediate availability of Oxygen Content Fusion version 6, as well as Oxygen Feedback version 4 (for both the Cloud and Enterprise editions).

Oxygen Content Fusion 6 introduces the new Projects feature, which allows you to manage a DITA project hosted in a Git repository while maintaining full compatibility with existing workflows and tools. New publishing features are also available to help authors build WebHelp and PDF deliverables and the Oxygen Styles Basket has been integrated to let users visually customize the output.

A big focus for the release of version 4 of Oxygen Feedback was to implement various advanced search functionalities, such as Semantic Search and Faceted Search, that can be used when searching WebHelp Responsive output. These advanced search functions are made possible by configuring the Oxygen Feedback Search Engine to be the engine used by WebHelp.

What's New in Oxygen Content Fusion 6

With version 6, Oxygen Content Fusion introduces a lot of interesting and substantial improvements for the flexible and intuitive documentation platform where content authors can publish content and collaborate with subject matter experts in their documentation review process.

The new Projects feature provides a way to manage a DITA project hosted in a Git repository while maintaining full compatibility with your existing workflows and tools without the need for any type of migration. Authors can create review tasks inside a project and reviewers' feedback is tracked on a dedicated branch in the Git repository.

Additionally, this newest version brings new publishing capabilities for creating WebHelp and PDF deliverables. Users can also leverage a range of built-in templates to adjust the look and feel of these deliverables, and the Oxygen Styles Basket has been integrated to provide a way for the users to visually customize the output.

Furthermore, review task owners now have the option to close reviews temporarily, giving them time to address feedback and make necessary changes before integrating content into the project. Enhancements were also made to the Content Fusion user interface to improve navigation and streamline workflows.

The release also includes bug fixes, security enhancements, and updates to various internal components.

What's New in Oxygen Feedback 4

Version 4 of Oxygen Feedback offers new enhancements for both its Cloud and Enterprise editions of the solution that empowers content by elevating community engagement.

A big focus for this release was to implement various advanced search functionalities that can be used when searching WebHelp Responsive output. These advanced search functions are made possible by configuring the Oxygen Feedback Search Engine to be used as the search engine for your WebHelp output.

One of the advanced functions that can be utilized is Semantic Search, an advanced search technique that improves the accuracy and relevance of search results by analyzing the context of the search query, rather than relying solely on keyword matching. Additionally, publishers can configure Faceted Search functionality in the WebHelp output, enabling users to refine their search results by applying multiple filters that correspond to different facets of the information that they are seeking.

The introduction of Labels in the WebHelp output makes it effortless to find topics with the same label. Furthermore, the integration with the Oxygen Feedback Search Engine supports advanced query syntax, giving users the ability to create complex and flexible queries that generate precise search results.

Additionally, site admins can conveniently view the number of positive and negative votes received for a specific page directly in the output. A new ratings information page within the admin interface displays the number of votes and messages for each documentation page, including the content of each message. Also, site admins can easily navigate to the ratings information page directly from their email notifications. Furthermore, a new checkbox can be displayed in the output when a user provides negative feedback, indicating their preference to be contacted by email for additional information if needed.

This version also includes various component updates and bug fixes.
