FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Cleveland, OH — March 2013 — Oxcyon, Inc. today announced the release of Centralpoint Digital Experience Platform version 8.4.16. Now serving 28 enterprise clients and in its 13th year of operation since its founding on September 1, 2000, Oxcyon continues to deliver regular platform updates across its growing base of enterprise licensees.
Version 8.4.16 delivered the following enhancements to the Centralpoint Digital Experience Platform:
| Feature |
Summary |
| Admin > IP Manager |
The Authentication action now supports Redirect URL='/cpsys_CurrentUrl' to have the page redirect to itself after authenticating. |
| ASP.NET Control Rendering |
The system has been updated so that it no longer requires controlRenderingCompatibilityVersion="3.5" or clientIDMode="AutoID" settings in the web.config file, however, these settings are still supported. They will be automatically removed from the console (Master/Root and Console) web.config files during the sync, but front end web site (Root) Web.Config files will not be affected. These elements can be removed manually after determining that all custom code and client scripts support the change. |
| CartDownloadDigitalItems CpScript |
Displays the URL purchased digital items. |
| Content > Events |
A new DisplayDayInCurrentWeek CpDataBind has been created for use in the Site Architecture > Module Designer > Calendar Week View tab. It display the adjusted date for the currently displayed week. |
| DefaultStandardNavigation CpScript |
Renders the standard site navigation which is configured using Design > Styles > Navigation & Sub Nav when using the Default Site Type. Typically this navigation is displayed in the left hand margin of the site, but it can be removed by setting Design > Styles > Navigation > Visible to No, and the same navigation can be dynamically placed on the site using this script. |
| Design > Data Sources |
An issue has been addressed where the Formatting > Raw HTML option was registering the Scripts and Styles attributes when returning an empty dataset. |
| Design > Mobile Navigation |
A Match Url With Query String attribute has been added. If set to yes, the query string is included in URL comparisons. |
| ExtPagination CpScript |
A WrapperDivClass parameter has been added to support targeting without the client ID. |
| ExtScrollBar CpScript |
References and extends an HTML element to display a scroll bar. |
| ExtToolTip CpScript |
References and extends an HTML element to display a tool tip (hover text). |
| FireDefaultButton CpScript |
This CpScript replaces the ASP.Net FireDefaultButton that was previously in use. |
| Form Control CpScripts |
The ToolTip parameter now supports escaped HTML characters. |
| FormAudience CpScript |
Generates a tiered audience selector for use in forms management. |
| FormListBox & FormRadioButtonList CpScripts |
A new TextFieldDataType parameter has been added which supports the values String and DateTime. By default this property uses the value String, but entering DateTime will trigger time zone conversions. |
| ProximitySearchQueryStringHandler CpControl |
There is now properties for form state ids instead of using query string variables. |
| Site Architecture > System Pages > Search |
A new SystemPageSearchLink CpScript has been created to render and style custom links to execute searches over one or all Modules. |
| SQL Server Service Broker |
Centralpoint has been updated to no longer require the SQL Server Service Broker. The broker will be automatically disabled in all cpsys and cpweb databases. If you require this broker for custom code it can be enabled and managed manually. All "SqlQueryNotification" Services, Queues, and Stored Procedures can be deleted from SQL Server manually after backing up the database if desired, but this is not required. |
About Oxcyon and Centralpoint
Oxcyon is a technology company specializing in enterprise knowledge platforms, best known for its flagship solution, Centralpoint. Centralpoint is designed to unify structured and unstructured information across organizations, enabling enterprises to aggregate data from disparate systems, normalize it through rich metadata, and transform it into actionable knowledge. By treating information as interconnected knowledge rather than isolated documents or databases, Centralpoint allows organizations to build a true enterprise knowledge layer — one that supports governance, compliance, operational intelligence, and advanced analytics. Its metadata-first architecture enables organizations to ingest, classify, and relate data from sources such as documents, forms, databases, applications, and external systems, creating a centralized environment for discovery, reporting, and operational decision-making.
What differentiates Centralpoint is its ability to go beyond traditional data management into data mining, inferencing, and AI-driven knowledge operations. Through taxonomy systems, relationship modeling, and rule-based data governance, the platform can identify patterns, infer relationships between records, and automate workflow decisions based on contextual intelligence. This capability allows organizations to move from passive data storage to active knowledge processing — surfacing insights, triggering workflows, and powering intelligent automation. With its integrated support for enterprise search, metadata-driven analytics, workflow orchestration, and AI-ready data structures, Centralpoint positions Oxcyon as a leader in modern data aggregation and knowledge intelligence platforms, helping organizations transform complex information ecosystems into governed, searchable, and intelligent operational systems.
