We are continuing to work on issues throughout Cyberschool. Thank you to everyone who has brought their feedback to us so that we can work to make it better.

The main part of this update is to address the issue of Search Engine's indexing sites improperly.
This primary happens with sites with multiple school sites as well as sites with multiple domains.
This phenomenon often happens when a resource/post is linked from one school site to another and a search engine is uncertain how to index the resource.
A new setting has been added to the Post Editor to allow for setting a resource to be Viewable from all schools - this setting will establish that the resource will cause a 404 when attempting to view it improperly, moreover it will alert Search Engine Crawlers not to index the page unless it is being viewed from the correct school.
A new setting has been added to the My Explorer to allow for toggling Cross School Access for posts in bulk.

An update to fix a few small issues with the editing tools of the Navigation Editor.
Fixed the Up/Down arrows in the Navigation Editor
Fixed the Show/Hide functions in the Navigation Editor
Fixed the Cache Clearing of the Navigation Editor upon saving
Set the Navigation Cache Duration to 30 minutes.
