8.3.6

Cerb (8.3.6) is a maintenance update released on April 16, 2018. It includes 17 minor features and fixes from community feedback covering the 8.3 update. You can follow these instructions to upgrade.

  • [Bots/Actions/PHP] Fixed a PHP 7.2 ‘countable’ warning in bots when adding actions to a behavior.

  • [Bots/Portals/UX] On conversational bots deployed to websites, text prompts now include a ‘Send’ button. Some mobile end-users were confused about the need to press ‘Go’ in the on-screen keyboard. Some desktop users were confused about needing to press the <ENTER> key.
