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.

A tidier purchase page

On the customer purchase page, email preferences and signed contracts now sit neatly at the bottom — below the purchase and payment details — so the most important information stays up top. Each signed contract shows the date it was signed and opens in an elegant pop-up, so customers can review it without leaving the page.

Searchable country and state pickers

Entering an address — in your account settings, billing details, or at signup — just got easier. The country and state/region pickers are now searchable dropdowns: start typing to jump straight to your country instead of scrolling the whole list. They also render properly in dark mode.

Blog page numbers now line up horizontally

When your blog index uses page numbers, the numbered links once again sit in a single horizontal row from the moment the page loads, instead of briefly stacking on top of each other.

Refunding a credit purchase now removes the granted credits

When you refund a purchase that granted credits (like AI credits), the unspent credits are now automatically clawed back from the recipient's balance. Previously the credits stuck around even after the refund. Credits the customer already spent are left untouched, and a balance can never go negative.

Broadcasts

Your broadcast triggers now stay visible on the summary after the broadcast is delivered, so you can always see which triggers are attached.

Courses

Write a comment box now sits at the top

The “Write a comment…” box now appears right above the list of comments — on course lessons, forum posts, ideas, and blog posts — instead of being buried at the bottom. On lessons or posts with lots of comments, your members no longer have to scroll all the way down to find where to write. Just type at the top and your comment appears right below.

Lists

Archive contacts straight from a list's subscribers table

When you select contacts on a list's subscribers table, the bulk actions menu now offers Archive Contact right alongside Unarchive Contact. Previously you could un-archive from there but not archive, which was confusing and inconsistent. Now both work symmetrically, so you can clean up a list without leaving the page.

Set a default email footer for your whole account

You can now set one default footer or signature that appears on every email you send. Go to Settings → Account → Emails and turn on Add a default footer/signature to all emails from this account, then write your signature once — your name, support contact, important links, anything you like.

It shows up automatically at the bottom of your emails, including au…

Surveys now use your brand colors

Standalone surveys now automatically pick up your account's style guide colors (primary, secondary, neutral) instead of using generic defaults. If you've customized your style guide, your surveys will match your brand right away.

Sites

Videos no longer auto-play in admin site preview thumbnails

A site whose home page had an auto-playing video would start playing it right inside the small preview thumbnails in admin — the Sites card view, the theme gallery, and the site picker. Those previews are now treated as static thumbnails, so videos stay quiet until you actually open the site.

Help widget red dot now clears correctly

The unread indicator (red dot) on the help widget no longer stays on when you have nothing left to read. Opening the widget now marks everything in your visible ticket list as read, so the dot reflects reality.

Site groups

Pinning a group post to the feed now works

Pinning a group forum post to your community's Groups feed now keeps it pinned at the top where you'd expect, and a post pinned only within its own forum no longer shows up as "pinned" on the Groups feed.

Stop elements getting squished inside stacks

When you place elements side by side in a horizontal Stack, each element now has a Don't shrink switch (in the Format tab). Turn it on to keep an element — like a number, an icon, or a short label — at its natural width instead of letting it get squished into a narrow sliver when a neighboring element has a lot more content.

Video quality control and smoother playback restored for older videos

Some older videos had lost the quality picker and could buffer because they were playing as a single fixed-quality file. They now stream adaptively again — playback automatically adjusts to the viewer's connection, and the quality control reappears so viewers can pick a quality manually. Nothing to do on your end; affected videos benefit right away.

List sender overrides now apply to automation and trigger emails

If you set a custom sender name, email, or reply-to on a list, that sender now applies to emails sent from automations and triggers on that list — not just broadcasts. Previously those emails fell back to your account default sender, so members could see a different sender than the one you configured on the list. Now the sender you set on the list shows up everywhere.

Purchase lists now show the contact’s real avatar

In purchase lists, contacts who have a profile photo now show that photo instead of a generic placeholder pattern — matching what you see on the contact’s own page.

Introducing AI credits

As we shared in an email a few weeks ago, AI usage in Simplero now runs on AI credits. Every plan includes a batch of free credits each month, and — new with this release — when you run out you can buy more directly from your account, so heavy AI usage never grinds to a halt. AI credits cover all AI-powered features in Simplero: media file transcription, les…

Hiding others' highlights no longer hides the text itself

When you clicked the eye icon to hide other people's highlights on a chatbot message, the highlighted text would disappear entirely. Now only the colored overlay is removed — the original text stays visible, just without the highlight coloring.
