It is already possible to customize SEO tags per Newspage publication. Today, you can do the same thing for your Newspage home page.
You can define a custom title page, description, and canonical URL. To improve the display and usability of your links on social media you can even set a custom Open Graph and Twitter Card title, description, and image.
To access the options, open a project on the Noticeable dashboard, click on “Newspage” in the left navigation and scroll down to the new subgroup entitled “Search Engine Optimization (SEO)”:

So long, 2021! It was marked by productivity and growth. If we had to sum this year up in a few words, here’s what we’d say: more features, better user experiences, and even more success stories.
Here are some of the most important highlights of the year 🎉:
New Dashboard
Last year, our dashboard took a step forward with a more intuitive, fresh, and easier-to-navigate interface. We also released analytics, developed a rich text editor, a live widget editor, added support for Call-To-Actions (CTA), implemented notification preferences, and many other customization options.
New Widgets and JavaScript SDK
In 2021, we released a new version of the popup widget but also new modal and top-banner widgets. More layouts for more use cases and better product updates placement.
Additionally, we also added support for code injection in widgets and the new JavaScript SDK makes use of the standard Web platform with a concise API that enables events support and cross-device synchronization.
Single Sign-On (SSO)
Early last year we launched support for SSO. Our implementation supports OIDC and SAML industry-standard protocols. SSO reduces chances of hacks by only requiring one set of credentials and only logging each user in once per day. We also created an integration to appear in the Okta catalog for easier usage.
Improved Newspages
2021 was also the opportunity to bring several enhancements and features to Newspages. This includes support for private Newspages to restrict accesses with a shared secret or by IP addresses, but also Right-to-left (RTL) support with Newspages and Widgets.
And many other amazing features!
Thank you!
This year Noticeable helped more businesses around the globe to engage and keep their users updated. Among them are Airfair, Checkout, Firstbase, Huggy, IBM, Lytx, Nylas, Picdrop, Pipplet, Synthesia, Testlodge, and more.
For the sake of every user, we’re committed to making Noticeable the best changelog as a service but we couldn’t do it without your support. Your feedback and suggestions were a valuable resource for the improvements we made in 2021, and they will continue to drive our roadmap this year.
We’d love to continue hearing from you in 2022! If you want to say a quick hello or drop a few suggestions, drop a line below, send us a message on Twitter or by email.
From the whole team at Noticeable, we want to wish you a great year ahead!

We did it! You now have access to a whole new type of widget: the modal one.
Using a modal widget, you can announce your product changes or deals in front of your users. In contrary to the popup or top banner widget, full publications content is displayed when the widget is opened.
As a trigger to open a modal widget you can select among the ones we already propose with other widgets: custom, floating button, icon, text + badge, or none.
If you prefer to use no triggers and automatically open a modal widget when you publish a new publication, that’s possible. To do so, while editing a publication on step 2, “Options”, enable the switch option “Automatically open widgets when the publication is new”:

AWS is added for some features we will introduce in the future.
Regarding MongoDB and Redis we already have on-premise instances hosted and running on Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Starting October 18, 2021, instances will remain hosted on GCP but fully managed by MongoDB Atlas and Redis Cloud.
The new Top Banner widget allows you to tell people about your latest updates, promotions, discounts, maintenances or even keep users updated about ongoing issues.
As with other widgets, you can configure the style and behavior of the Top Banner widget directly from our live editor without coding knowledge. More than 40 properties are configurable!
The widget layout is quite flexible in the sense that you can either set a title, title + description, Call-To-Action (CTA), and even include a countdown to promote limited offers. Metrics such as the number of views and CTA clicks are also collected.
We’re updating our Terms and Privacy policy. The purpose is to clarify and simplify our statements while providing more transparency. The new Terms and Privacy is effective as of Today for new accounts and will take effect on July 8, 2021, for accounts created before this announcement.
As part of the changes, we are also adding Ipregistry to our list of subprocessors for Analytics purposes. Ipregistry is based in France and is GDPR compliant.
By continuing to use Noticeable after July 8, 2021, you agree to these changes.
Note that you are not affected by these changes if you are an Enterprise customer bound to us with custom terms.

In early February, we launched support for Single Sign-On (SSO). Today, we are going further and are proud to provide an official integration with Okta: Noticeable appears in the Okta catalog as a verified app with OIDC and SAML support.
One of the main targets for cyber-criminals is your username and password. Each time you log in to a new application, it provides more opportunities for hackers. SSO reduces these chances by only requiring one set of credentials and only logging each user in once per day. Furthermore, using Okta, your company can enforce the use of strong passwords but also custom policies to better protect your organization’s assets.
Single Sign-On is available on our Enterprise plan with unlimited collaborators. Drop us a line if you are interested in giving it a try or want to upgrade.
