Welcome to 2026 for our first release of the year. To warm us up, we're releasing:

Pin Announcements and Discussions to Top

Landing Page editors and module creators / advisors can now pin announcements and discussion posts to top. In the Landing Page context, this can help draw attention to important announcements by keeping them at the top of the page. In the Module context, a pinned Discussion Post can help kickoff the learner discussion around a task.

Copy Link to Announcements and Discussions

Get a link copied to the clipboard, and share the link anywhere with anyone. When they click the link they'll be taken straight to the Announcement or Discussion post. This is handy for disseminating updates casually with team members or via email, or for referencing a post or announcement inside other content in Headrush.

Resume Guest Assessments

When a Guest Assessor comes back to Headrush and enters the same email they used before, Headrush will prompt them to resume their current assessment. This will help reduce confusion during events season by guiding guest assessors to pick up where they left off.

Bugfixes and Tweaks

  • Bug: New advisor groups were not being created from Admin > Users & Groups

  • Tweak: Discussions on Tasks now default to sort from Newest to Oldest

  • Tweak: Added quick-action menu to discussion posts and announcements, modified layout

  • Bug: Performance of guest assessments reports with large numbers of learners improved
