IMPROVED [Projects]: Creating a new project and presetting languages

When creating a new project, the languages are preset from the most recently created project for convenience.

This is helpful in environments with many project managers each working in different languages.

FIX [Editor Search Bar]: Searching by Last Update Date not working properly

The Last Update Date filter in the Search Bar used to display the dates according to the timezone. This prevented users from filtering segments by a specific period. The filter has been improved.

NEW [Workflow and deadlines] Applying delta to project/file deadlines

Languages, Translators, Project Managers - WM-6577

IMPROVED [Wordbee Flex] Workflow option to reopen jobs is now triggered when translations are newly set to red status

The Flex configuration permits the user to specify under which conditions a translation status is set to red status. This is used to track content changes or additions. The project workflow option to reopen jobs is now triggered when any of the translation segments change the status to to red. This makes the system behavior consistent with the configuration.

Wordbee Flex, Translators, Project Managers - WM-5203

IMPROVED [Orders] Creating an order and uploading files: When user uploads more files than allowed, the UI is now more descriptive of the actual behavior

An order allows only a limited number of files to be attached and this is a configuration option that can be set by the administrator. When user selects too many files, the system shows an error message and cancels the upload. However, the UI did not upload the allowed number of files. We have now changed the behavior so that the upload of the selected files is cancelled in such cases. This improves the user experience.
