Double opt-in support is now available to all organizations on the Emails preview:

Note that double opt-in is the default for all new accounts but needs to be updated manually from the emails settings for existing accounts.

• Metrics are no longer collected for draft publications. This includes reactions, views, Call-To-Actions (CTA), link clicks, etc. It is also no longer possible to submit user feedback on draft publications.

• We’ve added a new option to disable auto-refresh on Newspages if needed.

• Due to recent abuses to trigger spam notifications to our customers by automating feedback creation from Newspages or Widgets, we added a rate limit to a set of actions. This should not affect legitimate usage. However, if you are still experiencing spam, please drop us a line below or via email.

• The widget trigger of type “None” is now supporting automatic widget opening. This means that if you create for example a modal widget with “None” as trigger, and publish a new publication with the option “Automatically open widgets when the publication is new” in order to automate the opening of your widget, then your modal widget will now automatically open to users who have not already seen the publication.

We’re excited to announce native email sending.

You are wondering what is behind this announcement? that’s the ability to forward Noticeable publications to your subscribers by email in one click:

Our goal is to make the publication of your updates but also the management of your audience easier.

Native email sending is currently under development. A minimal set of features is available at this time but we’re actively working on expanding the scope.

You can request access by clicking on the button below or dropping us a line by mail. Note that only customers on a paid plan and with an active subscription are accepted to join the preview.

• An option to download user feedback as CSV has been added.

• You can control per Newspage and per Widget whether the user feedback form should display and require fields to collect email and name.

• Each user feedback now includes the page from where the feedback was collected via a field called Referer. There is also a new field named Origin that indicates from what Newspage or Widget feedback was collected.

  

• The top-banner widget includes a new option named Position to move and stick the banner to the top or the bottom of your page with a single click.

• When you duplicate a post, its publication date and time are automatically set to the current date and time. Expiration time and archive status are also removed if they were set.

• An issue impacting accounts that were updating their default profile image was fixed.

• The issue returning “Internal Server Error” upon email subscription on Newspages has been fixed.

• The option to duplicate a publication has been improved to enable the creation of a copy in the project of your choice:

  

• User feedback messages displayed in the dashboard are now formatted with line breaks appropriately.

• Fixed a cache invalidation issue that prevented to move on widgets a publication from the published state back to the draft state.

• Fixed an invalid quota limit (related to the number of collaborators you can invite) upon new project creation for some accounts created before November, 2021.

• Widgets are up to 50% faster to load and render. Although Noticeable widgets were already amazingly fast and lightweight components, we made improvements by serving content from Cloudflare CDN (with HTTP3) and upgrading the Lit library we are using to its new major 2.0 version.

• New customization options are available with the modal and popup widgets: you can set a custom background color and select whether the publication author must be displayed or not.

• Upon background color change, the color of the text and some other user interface elements automatically adapt to meet color contrast standards.

• When you create a new project label with a name that includes non-Latin characters, the slug that is generated is automatically transliterated to make it valid.

• Transactional emails delivery has been improved: all users should now consistently receive invitations or sign-in links within seconds when they log in by email address.

• Fixed a recurring bug preventing customers on the Growth plan to create a publication through Zapier with an empty list of segments.

• Fixed a bug disabling configured Newspage custom domains when moving from a paid plan to another.

• We’ve added a new option to set a link on the title of a top-banner widget (in addition to or replacement of a CTA button). When enabled, you can either redirect to the publication on your Newspage or the URL of your choice:
  

  

• When defining a custom URL (for instance in a CTA button while configuring your publication on step 2 Options, or with the title link of your top-banner), you can now use the placeholder {publication_slug} inside your URL to create a dynamic redirection. The placeholder is automatically replaced by its corresponding value when the URL is created.

• The live widget editor on the Noticeable dashboard now includes a dark mode to better visualize your widgets when using light colors:
  

  

• The top-banner vertical padding set on mobile devices has been decreased to improve the aesthetic.

• An issue preventing the Newpage embed widget to load on mobile devices has been fixed.
