When you open a post in your Timeline, share buttons are displayed by default on the left. Until now, only 2 were available: Twitter and Facebook. Today, we have added LinkedIn!

Following the recent data privacy scandal with Facebook, we are happy to provide a new option in your Timeline configuration page that allows selecting which share buttons must appear.

Noticeable Timelines centralize your product updates. Today, we have deployed a new version of the app that allows embedding Timelines in your own pages.

Any Noticeable Timeline can be embedded into a full page of your website, rather than hosting it on a subdomain. For this purpose, we allow serving Timeline content from an iframe.

Below is a link to a Github repository that provides an example:

https://github.com/noticeableapp/noticeable-timeline-iframe

Timelines also support some options via Query string parameters:

For instance, here is the official Noticeable Timeline with header and footer hidden:

https://updates.noticeable.io?footer=false&header=false

We are receiving more and more requests from people and companies who are interested in switching from Headwayapp to Noticeable. Is it also your case? As from Today, we provide a wizard for this purpose.

How is this new feature working?

1. Open our Importation Wizard.
2. Select a Noticeable project, then click on "Get started".
3. Enter your Headwayapp changelog URL.
4. Click on "Begin Import".

The importation is fully asynchronous. This means you can continue working on other tasks, and even close your browser, while posts are fetched and published on your Noticeable project.

You will receive an email once the importation is finished.

We are proud to announce the availability of our new Help Center. This last centralizes the most frequent questions we receive but also share tips and discuss advanced features. You can search by keywords and leave reactions. The content will expand with time.

If you have questions or need help, you can also reach us by chat on our pages or by email.

Are customers keeping your product pages opened for a long time without reloading? In such a situation the Noticeable Widget is now automatically refreshing its content every hour.

The auto refresh period is configurable. As for other Widget properties, you can set its value from your configuration page on Noticeable:

1. Open a project from your dashboard.
2. Select Widget in the sub-menu.
3. Set your value in the Auto refresh field (in minutes).

or programmatically (in milliseconds):

<noticeable-widget 
    auto-refresh="3600000"
    access-token="YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN" 
    project-id="YOUR_PROJECT_ID"></noticeable-widget>

The refresh period cannot be lower than 1 minute. If you want to disable the auto refresh feature, you simply need to set the value to -1.

Although requests are cached by a first class Content Delivery Network (CDN) by default, please note that reducing the auto refresh value will in most cases increase cache invalidations and thus affect your API calls quota.

We're thrilled to announce that our Zapier Integration is now live.

Zapier is all about making your life easier through automation. It automates the connection between your Noticeable projects and the apps and services you already use to run your business or manage your audience. That means you don’t have to do as much of the heavy lifting.

If you want to automatically add Timeline subscribers to an email list or instantly post your Noticeable posts on social media, Zapier makes it happen 🙌

Automations are set up with Zaps. A Zap is made of a Trigger and Actions. For instance, when a new post is published in Noticeable (Trigger) then a new Tweet is automatically published with a link to the post (Action).

Zapier works with over 1,000 different connected applications, meaning that you can create and customize a huge range of automations to your heart's content. What's even more awesome is that no code is required!

Here are a few of the most popular Noticeable-Zapier automation templates you can set up right now:

This new Zapier integration works with any Noticeable plan, and you can find a list of the most popular Zap Templates from the Integrations section of any Noticeable project. Please note Zapier offers free accounts with a few automations included, and paid plans with more advanced functionality.

If you need help, we remain available at [email protected].

Hola, ¿que tal? Was geht? Ça va?

Your app or service is available in multiple countries and you want to improve customers engagement by sharing what's new in multiple languages? Noticeable now has full support for this purpose. You can write posts in Chinese, English, Hindi, Spanish, French, etc. there are no limits.

How does it work?

You simply need to create a dedicated project per language. Once created, you can override all default texts used on your project Timeline and Widget. There is an exception with texts related to date and time. These last are automatically translated based on the user locale that is detected on the browser.

Managing multi-language per project has several benefits: you can customize default texts but also labels, collaborator permissions and many other options.

Don't wait to share updates, your users will love you, we promise.

Noticeable allows keeping your users in the loop about your product. Thanks to the In-product widget, users are notified about new changes in the right context and at the right time. However, what if you schedule a maintenance for your product in Paris and you want to publish an update to users who are located in this city only? That's where user segmentation comes to the rescue :)

Segmentation is a seemingly simple but extremely powerful mechanism.

When you publish a post, you may define segmentation filters, aka segments:

Then, based on users who are browsing your pages, you simply need to configure the Widget with the desired segments. You can do it statically:

<noticeable-widget 
    access-token="YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN" 
    project-id="YOUR_PROJECT_ID"
    segments="Authenticated,Country:France"></noticeable-widget>

or dynamically:

document.addEventListener('noticeable-widget-created', function(e) {
    e.target.setSegments(['Authenticated', 'Country:France']);
});

It's just that easy! Segmentation filters defined on posts need to match at least one segment configured with the Widget in order to be displayed.

Posts with no segmentation filters are displayed to all but posts with segments are displayed to users who match the segments only. Timelines do not display posts which are segmented.

You can also target a specific user if the user email or identifier is used as a segment value.

User segmentation is available with the Business and Agency plans starting Today.

Introducing a plan for indie hackers was a frequent request we received these last days. Since we are continuously listening to feedback from our visitors and customers, we are happy to introduce a new Starter plan!

We also took the opportunity to adjust existing plans thanks to optimizations we made. In addition, we support customized plans: you can request additional projects, collaborators and API calls for any plans at a fixed price per month or year. If you are interested, please drop us an email.
