• In email campaigns, added option to include custom fields from account creation, speaker, moderator, and attendee registration. Added
• Added option to enter a custom reply-to email address when sending a campaign. If no email address provided, it will use the default email address of the admin who is logged-in. Added
• Displayed a tab in the Public profile page to display sessions where the contact is moderating at. Also added option to hide/display this tab under Contact settings. Added

• In acceptance letter builder, when uploading an image, it does not display any information about whether the image is selected or not.Fixed
