Top Banner Widget

by Laurent Pellegrino, Founder and CEO
New
Widgets

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.


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.

Updates for June 15, 2021

by Laurent Pellegrino, Founder and CEO
New
Enhancement

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.

Enhancement

Okta Integration

by Laurent Pellegrino, Founder and CEO
New
Integrations

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.

Introducing Call-to-Action 🖱️

by Laurent Pellegrino, Founder and CEO
New

Did you ever expect your users or customers to act right away following an update you shared? Adding a Call-to-Action (CTA) is a means to grab attention and directing people to the next step.

For each publication you publish on Noticeable you can configure a CTA that is displayed as a button along with your publication content on Newspages and Widgets.

What's the advantage of using a CTA button over a link? CTA buttons are more prominent and analytics are collected for each click, thus allowing you to see how your actions behave, but also measuring success with a click-through rate.

How to define a Call-to-Action?

  1. Create or edit a publication.

  2. On step 2, select the Call-to-Action (CTA) settings group.

  3. Enter a label and an URL.

Private Newspages 🔒

by Laurent Pellegrino, Founder and CEO
New

We’ve introduced new options to change the visibility of your project’s Newspages. You can now restrict access to Newspages by requesting a password, thus making them private.

Private Newspages is a great way to keep content internal to your team or share project updates with a restricted audience.

How to change a Newspage visibility?

  1. Open the Noticeable dashboard.

  2. Click to Newspage on the left menu.

  3. Select the Visibility settings group at the bottom of the page.

  4. Configure the options as needed:

The feature is available with the Business plan. As part of the Enterprise plan, we also support filtering accesses by IP addresses and CIDR ranges. You can also require authentication via a header token.

Rich Text Editor ✍️

by Laurent Pellegrino, Founder and CEO
New

What’s better than Markdown to format publications? a rich text editor!

The Noticeable dashboard is now including a rich text editor. Formatting and customizing the appearance of your publications is now simpler than ever.

You can include images, videos, format titles using different levels, put text in bold, italic, underline or even strike. Quotes are also supported along with lists, code snippets, tables, and dividers.

To apply formatting or actions, you can use the visual toolbar, shortcuts (e.g. CTRL+B to set your current selection in bold), or the Markdown syntax! Indeed, for backward compatibility but also because some of you love Markdown, we still support the syntax as you type.

There is another tip we would like to share. When writing your publication, the content is saved as soon as the editor loses focus or you click on Continue. However, it is also possible to trigger a save by pressing CTRL+S.

What about content published through the GraphQL API or Zapier? in this context, you don’t have a rich text editor. As a consequence, you can either use plaintext or the Markdown syntax.

PS: some of you asked, the editor is built on top of ProseMirror, a great open-source toolkit for building rich text editors (we contributed ESM support).
