WHAT'S FRESH?
THESE ARE THE RECENT CHANGES TO SIMPLERO
We updated the footer in some pages so the text does not break in the middle of a word if we can avoid it, preventing for example breaking the phone number in two lines.
Scheduling link: jump to next available date
If you’re not available for the whole month on your scheduling link, now we take users to your next available date, so that they don’t stare at a blank calendar! This also applies if you have a setting for minimum notice set for weeks in advance, for example.
Fixed a rare bug where sometimes a comment on a site could not be deleted by certain admins.
Fixed a bug where long pressing the reaction button on mobile on the new community experience would open up the context menu (asking you to open link in new tab, copy link, etc. which doesn't make sense for the reaction button)
We've fixed a bug with triggers for Page Builder 2.0 opt ins where interpolations would not be substituted correctly in emails.
Fixing issue where the email sent by the 'Resend confirmation email' had no subject.
We fixed a typo in the word 'classification' in the invoices table.
Added read-only permissions for purchases, so that admins with this permission can see all data associated with a purchase, but not actions that change the purchase or its payments and participants.
Fixed a bug where the Meta pixel was not firing correctly in some cases (on system pages like order form if you didn't have Conversion API setup).
We have fixed a bug to ensure that deleted comments are not displayed on course lessons or forum posts in the new community experience.
When you now enable theater mode on the new experience, we'll now hide the left nav completely (you can still open it by clicking the hamburger menu ofcourse). This is to provide even more space for the video when in theater mode.
Fixed a bug where changing a site's card image was not working.
Fixed a bug where course lesson quiz on the mobile app couldn't be marked as completed and prevented navigation if the course required completion.
Scheduling link custom fields will now be listed in the Participants table of an event
We have fixed a couple of things when duplicating a forum post
- The new duplicated forum post will be in draft status
- It was not notifying the members of the new duplicated post, it will notify members now when the post is approved and published
For easier access, you can now open your style guides from the Settings menu under the "Marketing" section.
Added link to member profile on the admin Participant section
Simplified the video plays table on the video media file analytics page.
When sorting posts in a forum by 'Newest activity' in the new communit experience, we show the most recent comment directly on the feed. Now, we will also show the parent comment(s) of that comment so members have more context about the comment.
Fixed an issue with Page Builder 2.0 where setting the width or height of an image to a blank value would break the entire page.
Simplified the help desk widget that you use to contact our support team.
You can now copy a link to a comment on the new community experience by clicking on the '...' menu on the comment and selecting 'Copy link'.
Fixed a bug where we were rendering 'View in new tab' and 'Copy to clipboard' links on the '...' menu on the Style guide/Block editor where it wouldn't work anyway.
You can now create scheduling links right when adding a funnel step.
We've fixed the mention suggestion menu on site groups (on the new community experience, when you type @ to mention a member) to only include members of that group. It used to also include members of the site before.
Fixed the link to the member page from a membership site group (on new experience) so that by default it only shows posts & comments from the group you were coming from. You can still change the filter to show all posts & comments of that member, or from other groups, etc.
We've simplified the quiz completion flow. We'll no longer automatically mark the lesson as completed just because someone answered all questions in a quiz. They will have to click the 'Mark as complete' button to mark the quiz as completed and continue to the next lesson - just like how it works for all other types of lessons.
Simplified the 'Resend to...' menu on Broadcasts to read more easily.
Fixed issue where maximum file size on forum post uploads and comments did not follow the account settings.
Fixed an issue with Page Builder 2.0 pages where the Facebook Pixel 'Lead' event would not get fired after a successful list subscription.
In Page Builder 2.0, embedded order forms won't be automatically focused on load. This could would cause the page to scroll to the order form, skipping any other content before that.
Create surveys directly when adding a new Survey step on a funnel, to speed up your workflow.
The 'Switch to new experience' link on your membership sites will no longer be visible to your members - only to people who are an admin on the account.
Fixed duplication of surveys, where conditions on questions were not getting copied over.
Fixed duplication of prices' availability periods when duplicating the price or the whole product.
VAT No. And Company Name interpolations on Agreements
If you have the option “Company name & EU VAT no.” toggled on the product’s Order Form settings, you will now be able to use those 2 fields on agreements, and also on the custom Thank You Page message.
In Page builder 2.0 opt-in forms, you're now able to select a custom url where the user will be redirected after opting in.
Fixed the bug with broadcasts where the buttons were converted to hyperlinks.
Fixed a bug with survey conditional fields embedded in Page Builder 2.0 pages not working properly.
Improved how the date picker on the scheduling link booking page works. Before it acted as a toggle (where you could click the date to select it, and then click it again to unselect it), which wasn't correct with how things work. Now, if you click on a date, it will select it, but clicking on it again will not unselect.
We've moved the Popup button in the Page Builder 2.0 editor to the header of the page so that it's always visible.
Fixed a bug where locked lessons were clickable on the new course experience but lead to a 404 page.
You (and your customers) can now hide your location and timezone from being displayed on the member directory. Just enable the switch called 'Hide my location and time zone from other members of my communities' under the 'Privacy' section on your profile page.
When sorting forum posts by 'Newest activity' on the new experience, we will now show the latest comment on the post on the feed. This makes things more clear as to why an old post is at the top (because it just had a new comment).
You can now add hidden fields on scheduling links as URL parameters, useful for tracking, referral and attribution.
Customizing the styling of embedded order forms in Page Builder 2.0
We’ve made it possible to change the colors of embedded order forms in your Page Builder 2.0 pages so that they fit in with every design you imagine!
First, open the style guide and click on the “Colors” section where you can change the “Form” colors to your liking. Then, to use these colors in an order form, just toggle the “Use style guide styles” option in the order form settings.
Fixed a bug where tracking read status for new notifications was not working in all cases.
When viewing non-previewable attachments or course lesson resources on the new site experience, you'll discover a handy download button.
We've reordered Product options on the configure tab so they are easier to read through
- You will find the Advanced settings under Options grouped by relevant category for example: Agreements are now under Advanced options, Tracking settings are under Tracking options, etc.
- 'Course start date' has been renamed to 'start date for use in automations' which gives a better description of what it is for.
We've improved how avatar images are loaded across Simplero.
Bit nerdy: before they were never cached and as a result you would sometimes see a flash/nothing and then avatar would load. Now they should be cached appropriately among other technical improvements. This would especially be noticeable on pages that render a lot of avatars, e.g forum on yoru site, comments on lessons/blogs/forum posts, or on the member directory.
