WHAT'S FRESH? 

THESE ARE THE RECENT CHANGES TO SIMPLERO

Improvement
Dec 26, 2018

We've stopped using the smpl.ro domain in email links. Apparently it gets blocked because it's from Romania and there's a lot of phishing emails coming from Romania. As if Romanian criminals don't know how to buy a .com domain. Oh, well. We'll stop using it. (Still wondering how Bitly gets away with using a Libyan domain name.)

Improvement
Dec 20, 2018

Tired of 'Segment 1', 'Segment 2', etc? Me too. Give your segment a name when you create it.

Feature
Dec 20, 2018

When a custom field has an option for 'Other', you can now choose a placeholder for the 'Other' input field

The 'Your Account' in the drop-down menu on websites on your Simplero account now link to people's 'Your Account' page for your Simplero account only, instead of the 'Your Global Account' that shows evertyhing they've purchased on Simplero. I feel like that makes more sense for your customers. They don't need to know that you're using Simplero. At the same time, we've made it a bit easier to navigate to 'Your Global Account', though not quite as easy/confusing as it was about a month ago. I know the nomenclature here is confusing. Haven't figured out how to resolve this yet.

Feature
Oct 27, 2018

We now have 5 new top-level domain names to choose from for your Simplero sites and membership sites: vipclub.ninja, simplyeducated.net, coursehub.tv, geteducated.me, mycourse.tv, and mysimplero.com. To use them, go to your site > Configuration, and look for the section named 'URL'. There will be a drop-down where you can choose the top-level domain name to use. The default one is still simplero-sites.com, but you now have more choices.
