Product Updates Updates

Auto-Translation for Multi-Language Publishing

by Laurent Pellegrino, Founder and CEO
New

We're delighted to unveil our automatic translation feature for publications.

The "Duplicate" option you see alongside each publication in the listings has now evolved into "Copy to". Within this, you'll find a fresh option to instantly translate the title and content into the language of your choice.

If you're announcing in multiple languages, this is your new best friend. With our suggestion to create a distinct project for each language to ensure granular control over settings, transferring a publication to a different project with auto-translation has never been easier. A couple of clicks, a swift review, and it's all set for publishing!

End User Authentication for Widgets

by Laurent Pellegrino, Founder and CEO
New
Widgets

We’re excited to introduce end user authentication with Noticeable widgets.

End user authentication is a feature you can optionally integrate to verify the identities of your end users. This ensures that when end users engage with widgets, such as commenting, their identity is confirmed and secure from impersonation.

How does it function?

Noticeable employs Single Sign-On (SSO) tokens for this authentication process:

  1. On your server(s) side, you create an SSO token for each end user (using a secret we share).

  2. You pass this SSO token with our Javascript SDK before rendering any widget.

  3. VoilΓ ! Your end user's identity is now securely authenticated with Noticeable widgets.

Note: While it's still possible to pass end user traits using our Javascript SDK as outlined in our various identification methods, this approach is no longer recommended.

Support Email Option in Newspage Settings πŸ“§

by Laurent Pellegrino, Founder and CEO
New

You now have the option to specify a support email address in your Newspage settings. If you choose to do so, this email will become the unified point of contact, replacing the individual email addresses of publication authors.

Opting for this feature offers a consistent point of contact for all your publications, making communication more streamlined. Plus, it allows for the privacy of your authors' email addresses to be maintained without having to edit each publication's details individually. Note that entering a support email address is optional."

How to enable?

  1. Go to "Newspage" in the left menu.

  2. Scroll to the "Customization” settings group.

  3. Find the field named "Email support," enter your email, and save.

Updates for August 26, 2023

by Laurent Pellegrino, Founder and CEO
Enhancement

Here's a concise overview of some recent technical improvements:

  • Critical Email Duplication Fix: We've addressed a crucial bug that caused the dispatch of duplicate emails under specific and rare conditions. Multiple safeguards have also been implemented to ensure this issue won't recur.

  • Enhanced design: All Noticeable component labels now have rounded corners for a sleek, modern appearance. You still have the possibility to enforce your own styles with custom CSS.

  • Email display optimization: Emails sent by Noticeable now display better on earlier versions of Outlook. For the best quality on retina displays, use a logo height of 128px, which will scale down to 64px.

  • Faster SDK load times: In our continuous effort to optimize user experience, we’ve reduced the size of the Noticeable SDK script by approximately 40%, leading to quicker initial loading times.

  • Spam countermeasures: Due to increased spam related to comments and reactions, we've reduced the rate limit for such actions. Several spam comments have been deleted, and we're actively developing more robust spam prevention measures.

  • Subscriber list fix: Fixed a pagination glitch when listing email subscribers from the dashboard.

Improved Image Hosting ⚑️

by Laurent Pellegrino, Founder and CEO
Enhancement

We're delighted to bring you a significant technical upgrade that promises to improve both your experience and that of your users. We deemed it important to share this with you publicly given the potential benefits.

From this moment on, all images uploaded to Noticeable, whether newly added or previously uploaded, are hosted on the Cloudflare Content Delivery Network (CDN) with an aggressive caching strategy.

Cloudflare's impressive network spans over 300 cities globally, which dramatically reduces latency and ensures your images load quickly for users everywhere. Our aggressive caching policy amplifies these benefits by boosting the user experience during both initial loading and subsequent visits.

Moreover, we've broadened the image upload limitations. You are now permitted to upload image files up to 5MiB in size. In addition to GIF, JPEG, and PNG formats, we're also supporting SVG images, providing you with more flexibility and options.

Lastly, we've refined the URLs in which we present your uploaded images. Gone are the days of the generic Google domain URLs with their confusing hierarchy and opaque tokens. We've replaced them with clear URLs under the https://storage.noticeable.io domain name.

Introducing Nested Labels

by Laurent Pellegrino, Founder and CEO
New

Managing labels for multiple products or filtering criteria can quickly become a headache. As your label list grows, it becomes increasingly difficult to identify the purpose of each label and filter effectively.

To solve this problem, we are excited to announce the release of Nested Labels, now available on our Business and Enterprise plans. With Nested Labels, you can create hierarchies within your labels by using a β€œ/” in the name.

If you have labels with a common prefix, our system will automatically group them together. For example, if you have labels named Mobile version / 8.32 and Mobile version / 8.31, our system will recognize that they belong to the same category and create a label group for Mobile version. For instance, our Newspages automatically detect the hierarchies and display labels on the listing page by grouping labels by their prefix. This provides a more organized and streamlined experience for your team and customers.

Nested Labels also make advanced filtering more intuitive. Labels within the same group are treated as a logical OR, while labels from different groups/prefixes are treated as a logical AND when you select multiple labels for filtering.

In addition to Nested Labels, we want to highlight our flexible layout options. Our Newspage layout is customizable to fit your brand and design preferences. You can easily adjust colors, fonts, and other styling elements to create a unique look and feel for your Newspage.

Check out our live Newspage demo to see nested labels and custom design in action:
https://nested-labels.noticeable.news

If you need help creating a custom layout, our team is here to assist you. We're happy to provide guidance and support to ensure that your Newspage looks and functions exactly how you want it to.

Project Overview and Enhanced Insights πŸ“Š

by Laurent Pellegrino, Founder and CEO
New
Enhancement

We're excited to announce a significant update to the Noticeable dashboard! Introducing the new "Project Overview" page, designed to give you a high-level overview of your project's key data and performance metrics.

To explore this new addition, simply select "Project Overview" from the left-hand navigation menu on the dashboard. This comprehensive page offers summaries of the following:

  • Email subscriptions and unsubscriptions.

  • Email open rates.

  • Emoji reactions.

  • Publication creations.

  • User feedback.

You can now easily view these metrics for the last 30 days, 7 days, or even today, offering greater flexibility in understanding your project's performance.

In addition, the new page allows you to quickly read the latest user feedback received on your project, regardless of the publication. You can even download all comments for your project in a convenient CSV format.

The Project Overview page also offers a snapshot of your project quota usage, including collaborator and widget slot usage.

But wait, there's more! We have improved both the project analytics and publication performance pages. Charts now provide finer-grained details for a more in-depth understanding of events. For example, when analyzing the number of views, you'll now see stacked bars that display the distribution between Newspage views, Widget views, and Email openings, along with the original blue line that summarizes the total number of views. This enhancement will enable you to better attribute traffic and identify which aspects of your project are performing well or need strengthening.

Additionally, we’ve aligned the activity summary metrics on the publication performance page with the project analytics page, ensuring that all metrics are clickable for instant access to the corresponding chart.

On both pages, the period, start date, and metric selections now appear as query parameters in the URL, making it a breeze to share insights with your team.

Try out the new Project Overview page and experience a more powerful way to analyze your project's performance. We value your feedback, so please don't hesitate to leave a comment or reach out to us with your thoughts and suggestions. Together, let's continue to make Noticeable the best it can be!

Effortless Targeting with Recent Segments

by Laurent Pellegrino, Founder and CEO
Enhancement

This update simplifies the process of selecting the ideal segment while creating or editing publications. Simply choose a segment from the list of recently used ones, and you're all set.

If you're unfamiliar with segmentation, it's an incredibly valuable feature in Noticeable that enables you to direct your publications to specific user groups. Here's a brief overview of how it works:

  1. You set up a segment value using one or more widgets with minimal coding. Noticeable automatically keeps track of its last usage.

  2. You assign the chosen segment to a publication. This segment ensures that the publication is visible only to the intended user group. With the new update, you have access to a list of recent segment values, which eliminates the need for your team and you to remember available segments when crafting a publication!

We continuously aim to enhance your Noticeable experience and value your feedback. Feel free to share your thoughts or suggestions by commenting below.
