Try the new page builder experience

We've been reworking the controls in the page builder, and you can now switch them on for yourself. Open the ⋯ options menu in the builder header and turn on New page builder experience.

With it on, the toolbar around each section, row, column, and element gets a refresh: one tidy set of controls that never gets clipped by surrounding content, cleaner outli…

Popup style settings now apply to the popup itself

Setting rounded corners, background color, padding, border, or shadow on a popup element in the page builder now correctly styles the popup box itself, instead of only affecting the content inside it.

Scroll-to-section options hidden in global blocks

When editing a button inside a global section, the "Scroll to Section on page" and "Scroll to Row on page" link options are now hidden. These options were misleading because global sections appear on many pages at once — selecting a section on a specific page would silently break the button. The options still appear when editing buttons in regular (non-global) sections.

Order bump purchases now show under a funnel's Purchases tab

When someone buys an order bump along with a purchase that's part of a funnel, that order bump purchase now shows up under the funnel's Purchases tab — just like upsells already did. Open any funnel and click the Purchases tab to see the full picture of what was sold.

Branched conversations no longer show the welcome message and video from the original bot. When you branch off an existing conversation, you now jump straight into the discussion without seeing the intro again.

Automation conditions no longer show "is not blank" when set to Any time

When you added a Purchased product condition to an automation step and set the time range to Any time, the condition summary incorrectly showed "is not blank" after the product name. Now it just shows the product name cleanly, as expected.

Friday

Fixed a bug where the affiliate dashboard link on a site (e.g. yoursite.simplero.com/affiliates) could send you to your affiliate dashboard for a completely different Simplero account you happened to be an affiliate of. The link now always takes you to your affiliate dashboard for the account you're actually visiting.

Clearer warnings when payment processor limits prevent cart use

When you limit a product to specific payment processors, you'll now see a prominent warning right there in the setting explaining that this prevents the product from being added to shopping carts. Previously this was only mentioned in a small tooltip that was easy to miss. If items are removed from a customer's cart because of this, the message now suggests purchasing them separately or contacting you.

Credits

Smarter refund defaults

When issuing a refund or credit note, the system now defaults to the same card and payment processor as the most recent transaction — so you no longer have to worry about accidentally refunding to an old or inactive payment method. You can still switch to a different option if needed.

Locking your AI bot to a model now applies to ongoing chats too

When you lock your AI bot to a specific model, every new message now uses that model — including in conversations that were already underway. Previously a chat that started on one model kept using it even after you locked the bot to a different one. Now your locked choice takes effect everywhere right away. Bots that aren't locked keep carrying each conversation's model forward as before.

Settings, simplified on mobile

Managing your account settings from a phone is a bit nicer now. Open Settings on mobile and you get a clean, full-screen menu: search across every setting, jump straight to recently-used pages, and tap any category to expand its options right in place — instead of the cramped, side-by-side sidebars you had to pinch and scroll through before.

Set how your course looks right from the Content tab

Choosing how your course is presented is much simpler now. On a course’s Content tab there’s a new “Presentation” button right next to Settings — no more digging through the Settings page. Open it to pick your structure, and the content list instantly reshapes to match. You now get three clear choices instead of one confusing toggle: “Modules & lessons” (the…

Your Coach knowledge base is now available over MCP

When you connect an AI assistant to Simplero via MCP, it can now reach your personal Coach knowledge base directly: read and search your sources, browse and update your wiki memory, and look back through your past Coach conversations. That means tools like Claude can pull from everything you've taught your Coach — and write new notes and sources straight back into it — without leaving the assistant you're already in.

Open a new Coach conversation in a new tab

⌘-click (or Ctrl-click) the 'New conversation' button in Simplero Coach to start a fresh chat in a new browser tab — handy when you want to keep your current conversation open alongside a new one. A normal click still opens it right here, just like before.

Now when you or one of your Contacts click "Manage" on a purchase in the order history or account page, you now land directly on the payment information section of that purchase's page, where you can update your payment method, retry a payment, or change your plan. No more scrolling to find it.

Sharing a link to Simplero Coach now pulls in its content automatically

When you share a link to Simplero Coach from your phone — like a YouTube video straight from the YouTube app — Coach now reads it and pulls in the content for you, grabbing the video's transcript when there is one. Instead of ending up with a source that's just a bare link, you get something you can chat with right away.

Video progress now tracked per lesson

When you reuse the same video across several lessons, each lesson now tracks its own watch progress. Previously, watching a video in one lesson made every other lesson using that same video show as already watched — even ones your members never opened. Progress bars and member analytics now reflect what was actually watched in each lesson.

Specific testimonials now save on landing pages

Fixed a bug where choosing Specific testimonials in a testimonial element on a landing page didn't save and the selected testimonials didn't show up. Picking, reordering, and removing specific testimonials now save and display correctly, just like the "By product" and "By label" options.
