Episerver - update 306

New release of Episerver Campaign (Marketing Automation: New Advanced node functionality, Coupon system: Custom barcodes), Episerver Personalization (Mail - Enable transparent description image, Mail - Make default Image Size editable, Triggers - ability to send triggers for a specific location, Exclude add-to-group action from contact frequency limits), and the new Marketing Automation connector Episerver Delivra. Bug fixes for Episerver CMS UI, Episerver A/B testing (including the KPI integration package), Episerver Connect for Marketing Automation, and the Marketing Automation connectors for Eloqua and Silverpop.

The update applies to Episerver projects version 7.5 and higher, and contains finalized work items included in the latest iteration of services and related client-side NuGet packages. Continuous release updates are cumulative to include previous updates. Episerver supports all platform updates and strongly recommends that you keep ongoing projects up-to-date. You can install the update packages from the Episerver NuGet feed.

Note: A product release may contain multiple NuGet packages with inter-dependencies. This release information lists updated main package versions. When a release is built, other dependent packages may also be bumped to new versions, although they contain no publicly visible changes. This is done to avoid dependency errors. When you upgrade, NuGet alerts you to upgrade related packages to the required versions. For Commerce, it is important to ensure that you are running the same version of CMS and Commerce, both in the front-end and back-end applications.
