New feature: Login settings.
We've changed our Sign in/Sign up popup form.
Also we significantly improved our Sign in/Sign up embedded form (When the user sign in directly from a topic form)
Also we've added settings for login form. Now you are able to select what buttons show for external authentication systems and change their order. You can find this settings in your Project settings->Login settings.
As a bonus, we've added new type for SSO authentication. If you use "SSO only" authentication, now you can open your SSO authentication form in a new window (do not force redirect to your site). This feature is in beta now.

We've improved agent's access permissions. Now you are able to provide permissions to support agents per forum (previously you could do this for the entire project only). To edit this settings go to Project settnigs->Users->Support agents. Then click "Edit" on specified support agent.
1. Simple permissions' form. The agent has access to all forums with the same permissions.
2. Custom permissions' form. The agent has access to some forums with specified permissions per forum.
3. Agents access per forum. You are able to see the access map per forum (to whom and what type of access granted to the forum)
