The Simplero Changelog: Here's what we've been up to...
The link fields on products, courses, landing pages, lists, sites, short links, events, site redirects, and in the editor's Insert a link dialog now all use Simplero's standard link picker. Type or paste a URL, or browse and pick straight from your own pages, products, courses, and landing pages instead of hunting one down to copy and paste.
When your team pastes an image directly into a ticket reply, members can now click it to see the full-size version in a new tab — just like they already can with file attachments. Before, pasted images weren't clickable at all.
A few things could go wrong while a scheduling link booking synced with your connected Google Calendar, Outlook calendar, or Zoom:
The same booking could be created more than once. On Google Calendar and Outlook, every copy emailed a fresh invitation to everyone attending.
Your calendar or Zoom sending its own update back to us could look like a person had mov…
The ✋ on your video used to fade a few seconds after you raised your hand, and lowering it could lag behind. Now it stays on your video until you click ✋ again, and lowering clears it right away for you and for everyone else on the call.
Some chat messages — especially ones from other people — could occasionally show with odd, choppy line breaks even though there was room to display them better. That's fixed, so messages now wrap the way you'd expect.
When someone used their mail app's built-in Unsubscribe button, Simplero only took them off the one list that email came from — so they kept hearing from your other lists, and Gmail started counting that against your sending domain.
Three things are fixed:
- Both kinds of unsubscribe now set Do Not Contact. Mail apps unsubscribe in one of two ways — a hidde…
Fixed course videos appearing blank after moving to another lesson in the mobile app when theater mode was saved as enabled.
Fixed feedback surveys failing to appear after navigating between pages on your site.
Nothing looks or behaves differently. This is purely speed.
You'll notice it most on your longest pages: open one from Sites or Landing pages, scroll down, and drag a block around.
On a broadcast's report page, clicking Total recipients, Bounced, Unsubscribed, Marked as spam, a purchase total, or any of the Delivered/Opened/Clicked bars used to open a new browser tab (or, for the big numbers, navigate away from the report entirely). Those links now open in the same picture-in-picture modal used throughout the rest of admin, so you can see who's in a segment without losing your place on the report.
Open any sent broadcast's report from Email broadcasts and click through the stats.
In Simplero.Coach, you can drag a source from the sources sidebar and drop it where you need it:
- Starred or Archived in the sources list
- The current conversation (or message area) to attach it
- A conversation in the left sidebar to open that chat and attach the source
- A project to pin the source to the project
- New conversation to start a chat with that source already attached
Open Simplero.Coach, grab a source from the right sidebar, and drop it on Starred, a conversation, a project, or New conversation.
If your account hadn't chosen a plan yet, opening Default assignee for new support tickets, the assignee dropdown on your Tickets list, the support-team list in your embedded ticket widget, or the team avatars shown on your contact-support panel could show a server error instead of your list of admins.
On a slow connection, adding to a page could quietly give you two of whatever you added. You'd click + Element, pick Paragraph, and nothing would show up on the page — so you'd do it again, and both would eventually land. The same went for adding a column, a slide, or an accordion item.
What you add only appears once the save comes back. On a fast connectio…
One rule in our stylesheets was asking the browser to re-check every element on the page that has an id — a couple of thousand of them on a big page — every single time anything was added to it or removed from it. In the page builder that happens constantly as you move the mouse; on a live site page with a sticky header it happened quietly too, on every chan…
If your account is based in the EU: UK business customers with a valid VAT number are no longer charged VAT on any purchase (reverse charge). For everyone else, products set to Live program now charge UK customers your home-country VAT rate as that setting has always said -- Digital program pricing is unchanged.
Importing contacts from a CSV file used to be all-or-nothing: if even one row had a small formatting problem — like a stray character — the whole import would fail with a single generic error, and nothing would be imported. That could happen even in a file with thousands of good rows, and even when the bad row was the very last one in it.
Now a row like tha…
On a really long page the builder's outline could crawl along behind your mouse — over half a second late, with the wrong block still highlighted while you waited for it to catch up.
One of the rules that styles the editor was making the browser re-work the entire page every time the builder drew the highlight and the controls that come with it — which is c…
The Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Yahoo, Outlook, and Office 365 icons you can insert from the Variable menu now each sit inside their own padded, rounded background instead of crowding together edge to edge — and the Apple icon is no longer nearly invisible on a dark background. This applies to new links you insert going forward; ones already in an existing email keep their old look until you re-insert them.
Highlighting text in a quiz question, its explanation, or an answer option — to make it bold, italic, or otherwise formatted — used to pop the toolbar up right on top of what you'd selected, hiding it while you clicked. It now always appears below your selection instead, just like it already does in the main lesson editor.
Open a quiz lesson from Courses and highlight some text in a question, explanation, or answer to see it.
On a long page, clicking + Element would often open the list of elements and then have it vanish again before you could pick anything — usually just as you moved your cursor toward it.
The list was closing itself any time the canvas so much as twitched: a one-pixel nudge, the tail end of the scroll that brought you to that spot, or a slider quietly moving i…
