FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Cleveland, OH — January 2014 — Oxcyon, Inc. today announced the release of Centralpoint Digital Experience Platform version 8.4.35. Now serving 33 enterprise clients and in its 14th year of operation since its founding on September 1, 2000, Oxcyon continues to deliver regular platform updates across its growing base of enterprise licensees. This release marks Oxcyon's 14th year of continuous operation since being founded on September 1, 2000.
Version 8.4.35 delivered the following enhancements to the Centralpoint Digital Experience Platform:
| Feature |
Summary |
| Admin > Properties |
The Resource Audiences Enabled attribute has been renamed Resource Audience Filtration. It now allows you to enable and disable resource audience filtration as well as enable it only in the client console (Console Only). |
| Broadcasts |
Support has been added for the CurrentDate CpScript within broadcasts. |
| Design > Dynamic Navigation |
A new CSS class has been added to the container of the selected link when General > Rendering Mode = List. |
| Education > Configuration |
The Certificate attribute now supports DateCompleted placeholder script. The date rendered will not include the time. |
| FormRadioButtonList CpScript |
A new Enabled parameter has been added. When set to false the radio button list will rendered as a disabled form control. |
| Forms |
A new Disable Submit Button Upon Form Submission attribute to provide a way to prevent the possibility of multiple clicks during long running form posts. |
| Image Resizer (Image.ashx) |
The HTTP Handler used for file upload and resource image resizing has been updated to prevent a rounding error that occasionally generated an image with the wrong aspect ratio. This incorrect aspect ratio may have caused resized images to lose some quality. If you have noticed this problem and would like to clear your image resizing cache you can do so by deleting the files from the cpweb_SYSTEMNAME/Temp/ResizeImage folder. If you do not delete these files the cached images will expire on their own within the next month. |
| Master > CMS > Relations |
Predicate deletion has been repaired and the methods used to delete orphan data from relations have been updated to consider deleted predicates. These methods also execute via the Sync and Clean Up utility. |
| PdfIcon CpScript |
The ASPX page used to render a URL as a PDF has been updated to support authenticated users. It previously rendered all PDFs as an anonymous user making it impossible to render a private page as a PDF. Please note that private PDF downloads will only work if the user is already logged in. If you bookmark or email a link directly to a private PDF, log out, and visit the URL directly you will still download the login page. The user must be logged in before clicking on the link to download the private PDF. |
| Search CpControl |
A new DataFilter property has been added to remove items with no related data. Enabling this feature may have a negative effect on the performance of sites with a large amount of data. |
| Site Architecture > System Pages |
Two new options have been added to Search > Search Order By: Order By Start Date Desc and Order By Title Asc. |
| User's Current Audience |
The page base class has been updated to properly remember the User's audience when navigating to or past a page that does not contain the audience in the URL. In order to change the User's audience you must explicitly visit a URL containing the new audience. Previously, the User's audience was inadvertently reset to Main when they visited any URL that did not contain an audience. |
| Web Site & Module Searches |
The cpsys_DataCurrent_Select stored procedure has been updated to utilize the LIMIT parameter more efficiently for searches over a large amount of data. A default limit of 10,000 results has been added to all standard module searches. A Nonclustered Index has been added to the cprel_WebSiteSearch table to cover the queried columns in a typical search. |
| Windows Authentication (Single Sign-On) |
The Root/web.config file of all sites using windows authentication must be manually updated to support user authorization within HttpHandlers. Please manually remove all from the Root/Web.config file if you have not done so already. Custom elements containing other settings are supported by removing only the section. This requirement was discovered recently and has been added to the related Windows Authentication (Single Sign-On) file. |
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.
