FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Cleveland, OH — November 2015 — Oxcyon, Inc. today announced the release of Centralpoint Digital Experience Platform version 8.6.2. Now serving 60 enterprise clients and in its 15th 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 8.6.2 delivered the following enhancements to the Centralpoint Digital Experience Platform:
| Feature |
Summary |
| DITA > Elements > Specialized Elements |
A new property called Type has been created. It will now show in the Summary attribute of the DITASpecializedElement as either <content> or <data>.</data></content> |
| ExtChangeCookieValue CpScript |
This new CpScript takes a jQuery selector, cookie name, and cookie value, and is used to change the value of the cookie upon the click even of the element targeted by the jQuery selector. It was designed to use the click event of elements on the page to automatically change the tab displayed using dynamic tabs. |
| MobileAddToHome CpScript |
The ImageUrl property has been updated to accept an empty value. When an empty value is provided the ImageUrl will be automatically retrieved from Design > Styles > Misc > Mobile Icon Download which is assumed to contain an image. |
| Design > Styles |
A new Misc > Mobile Icon Download attribute has been added to this module. The Misc tab is only available if you are using the default site type. |
| Site Architecture > Navigation |
The URL attribute displayed when Page Type = URL or iFrame has been updated to support CpScripting. To facilitate this change validation has been removed from this attribute, but the resulting string must be a valid URL. |
| CustomFormItems CpScript |
A new RecordAttributeValueFormDataId property has been added. When you are using Type = RecordAttributeValue and you pass the new property a form field that is a DataId it will show that DataId's record's attribute. |
| FormHiddenField CpScript |
The DefaultValue property supports a new 'cpsys_FormInfo:DataId' constant. It will insert the FormInfo.DataId if the FormInfo exists, otherwise it will generate a new GUID. |
| ExtDatePicker CpScript |
A new DateTimeFormatIfEmpty property was added. It takes a date time format string which will be used if the control has no value by default. |
| PoliciesAndProceduresAccordion CpScript |
The ManualAppendFormat property now supports a 'cpsys_NewGuid' constant to insert a random GUID, and '/cpsys_Audience/' to insert the current Audience System Name. |
| Surverys > Surveys |
The workflow has been updated to display a "thank you" message instead of appearing to do nothing if a survey is not set up to send users to the survey results upon completion. |
| OrderBy CpControl |
New PleaseSelect and Options properties have been added to this control. The Options property will allow you to determine which options are available in the drop down list box. It accepts a comma separated list of these predefined options: Rank, Popularity, StartDate, Title, PriceAsc, PriceDesc, StartDateAsc, and None. |
| EditModeVisualEditor CpScript |
An issue has been addressed where a JavaScript error prevented the visual editor from collapsing when specifically formatted URLs existed on the page. |
| Design > Dynamic Scripts |
The Predefined Order attribute has been updated to include new Modify Data Ascending and Descending options. This required changes to the system *Order By keyword list which also affects the Admin > Syndication > Details > Predefined Order attribute. If you have developed any My Modules that use this keyword list the new options will appear. You can either implement these options or switch to a custom keyword list. |
| FormUpload CpScript |
An issue has been resolved that caused an error to occur when Type='Resource' and a file with the same name as an existing resource was uploaded. |
| Forms > Forms Wizard |
The Dropdownlist for Type SystemType now dynamically populates based on the Module, KeywordList, or TaxonomyTier. The Taxonomy and Audience Selector form fields now let you choose a Taxonomy or Audience, instead of have to type the Root System Name. When selecting that you are using a form to create a template, the Thank You Message RTF Editor is populated with the Template Download link. There is also a drop down list from the Ecommerce Merchants module for the Credit Card Fields form field. |
| Forms > Forms |
New Processing > File Creation = Template > Template Form Group and Template File Output Name attributes have been added. Template Form Group allows you to specify the form group used to retrieve the Template Form Field values in curly brackets. Template File Output Name was added to support predictable file names for use in other processing sections. |
| Form CpScripts |
A new ResourceFormInfo constant has been added to the DefaultValue property of all standard form scripts. When the FDID query string variable is in use and contains a ResourceId as opposed to a DataId you can set defaultValue='cpsys_Constant:ResourceFormInfo:AttributeSystemName' to access an attribute of the related resource. |
| FormReduceSeatsRemaining CpScript |
This new CpScript registers a form pre-processor update the current number of seats on the page before it is processed. It can be used to resolve issues with concurrent submissions in high traffic sites. |
| Development > Toolbox |
The toolbox itself has been updated to ignore the "Default Group" module property and default to "Form Scripts" in all modules that start with the word "Forms". |
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.
