Great news! We’ve released a new widget.

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.

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.

Dashboard

• The links to download PDF for invoices have been fixed (this was broken due to a change on Stripe).

Newspages

• You can filter content using multiple labels. For instance, if you have labels A, B, C, D and you click on labels A and D from your Newspage’s menu, then you will get publications that have label A or label D set.

• A visual loading state has been added to the button used to submit the subscription form.

• Clicks on Call-To-Action buttons using the mouse middle click are counted as regular clicks.

• Publication date and time are formatted using the locale defined in your project settings. If no formatting rules are available for your project language, we fall back to en-US.

• The background color for CTA buttons is set to transparent by default instead of white.

• The number of JavaScript files required to render the page has been drastically reduced.

• The number of publications displayed on the home page has been increased to 9 from 5.

• The subscribe button is hidden on pages related to subscriptions.

• The resource /subscribe has moved to /subscriptions and a redirection has been set up for the transition.

Widgets

• The Newspage Embed widget is now communicating with other widgets. This means that publications read or seen state changes on your Newspage via the Embed widget are instantly propagated to the Popup widget if you are using both widgets in your pages.

• When clicking on publication images from a Newspage Embed widget, the image opens in full resolution in a lightbox that is no longer attached to the inner frame but to the parent page, thus making the widget integration smooth and transparent.

New

• The “Subscribers” page on the Noticeable dashboard displays the number of email subscriptions you have per project.

• When injecting custom code on Newspages from the Noticeable dashboard, you can use the keyboard shortcut CTRL+S to save and preview your changes as long as your focus remains in the code editor.

• Automatic slug generation from publication titles is now supporting non-Latin characters by using transliteration.

Enhancement

• The label of Click-To-Action buttons is now put in bold to increase its importance and improve readability.

• Fixed code blocks not resizing properly on Newspages when displayed on small screens.

• Fixed an issue preventing the LinkedIn sharing button to work on Newspages.

• Fixed an issue preventing some placeholders to be correctly replaced with Zapier triggers related to the creation and the update of publications.

New

• Added support for text color customization with labels. When creating or editing a label, you can now set a custom text color using the color picker or the hexadecimal notation.

Enhancements

• Added support for the creation of links that include any scheme (e.g mailto:).

• Fixed an issue causing the cursor to move at the top of the editor while editing a publication on Safari.

• Fixed an issue preventing the creation of publications through the GraphQL API when no segments are specified and an organization account is on the Growth plan.

• Fixed an issue flagging some Newspage pages as insecure on Firefox due to some Gravatar images being served using http instead of https.

• Improved the display on the Noticeable dashboard of project logos not respecting the recommend 1:1 ratio.

• Inserting inline-code using Markdown back ticks (`) now has better support for underscore (_) character input.

• Pressing Enter while editing a list item is now creating a new list item instead of a line break.

Dashboard

• Editing a publication for adding a link was not triggering a save upon click to “Continue”.

• Updating a draft publication title is now updating its slug. Previously, you had to update the publication slug manually after a title change, even if the publication was not yet published.

• Fixed an issue preventing the Noticeable Embed Widget to show in the preview editor when a custom selector was defined.

• Fixed a line wrapping issue with very long publication titles displayed on the publication list.

• Fixed subscribers search input field not working on Firefox.

• Fixed an issue that was erasing publication content upon saving when images with data URLs were included. An error message is now displayed in the editor and saving works properly.

• Fixed concurrent edition warning box not disappearing upon conflict resolution.

Widgets

• Uniformized Call-To-Action (CTA) button style to be the same as the one used with Newspages.

• Fixed an issue preventing Noticeable Widgets to load on pages with custom Content-Security-Policy (CSP).

Bugfixes

• Fixed a cache invalidation issue preventing expired and scheduled publications to refresh on time.

• Fixed a CORS issue happening due to a cache invalidation problem when loading Noticeable widgets after somebody manually opens internal data URLs in a browser.

• Fixed a widget refresh issue happening sometimes on Safari upon the first load.

• Fixed private Newspages not working as it should when used with the Noticeable embed widget.

Enhancements

• Added a link to move back from the Newspage subscribe page.

• Added highlight icons in the Noticeable dashboard publication list to better differentiate between archived, expired, pinned and scheduled publications while providing additional information:

Zapier

Recently, some of you may have noticed a temporary slowdown with the API and the Timeline pages. The problem was coming from one of our database providers. We apologize for the inconvenience. The issue is now resolved.

Noticeable status information is available on the next page:

Adding images is crucial to make your product updates more appealing. By default, published images are automatically sized for the container that displays your product update (e.g. Widget or Timeline).

Although automatic shrinking is a visual requirement, this may be an issue when you want to draw special attention to details on an image. For this reason, we’ve made published images automatically zoomable when their natural size is larger than their container.
