We changed the recently added error message when the user tries to submit an order form without entering the complete card information (when using Stripe payment processor), from 'Please complete all the fields' to 'Please enter your payment info.

Filter out likely bot clicks

Some email clients, notably Outlook, will click all the links in all the emails, right after receiving them, causing somany problems.

Try as we might, we’ve never been able to identify these clicks reliably … not by IP, not by referer, not by user agent, not by anything we could determine.

The only thing we’ve come up with is that if the click happens within a few minutes of the email being sent, it’s most likely a bot click and not a human click.

We’ve now added a “Likely bot click” filter to the table of all the emails sent (the Recipients tab on a Broadcast), where you can filter in or out all the clicks that are likely to be bot clicks, defined as within 3 minutes of the email being sent.

That will give you a more accurate measure of the actual clicks.

It’s not perfect. But when it comes to email, nothing’s perfect.

Improvement

We've improved the parsing logic for phone numbers (mostly going to be useful when doing contact imports).

If the provided phone number does not have a country code, we will now check to see if the phone number would be valid if it was prefixed by your account's country code. If it is, we will assume that's what it is.

Improvement
Jun 14, 2024

When doing a contact import, you can now import phone numbers even if they are all in a single column. Previously, it was only possible to import phone numbers if they were split up into 2 columns (one for country code and the other for the number).

Whenever you edit a field that auto-saves or auto-updates, such as editing the label on a field in a survey, we'll now save or udate it regularly while typing, instead of waiting for you to leave the input field. So much nicer.

Simplification
Jun 12, 2024

When entering margin and padding around an element in the new page builder, you can now Shift+Tab to move counter-clockwise, in addition to Tab which always moved clockwise. Makes it easier to go back & forth.

Improvement

We have added a new setting for Worksheets: "Don't allow people to edit their responses."

This will force people to fill out a new Worksheet each time, rather than keep updating the same one.

They’ll still be able to edit their response for 12 hours, in case they find a typo or need to add more context. Then it’s locked.

Simplification

Reordered Course Lesson page in new Community experience

Reordered some of the blocks on the Course Lesson page in the new experience to make it simpler. Now Resources/downloads is at the top of the right sidebar, followed by private notes, then other lessons. On mobile, you have video/audio, then lesson content & bookmarks, then resources, then private note, then comments, then other lessons. That way smaller items like private notes are further up, and lessons navigation is always at the bottom. We're still tweaking, and we have other updates in store, specifically aronud the course/lesson navigation. This is a simple step forward for now.
