Your Website Has Been Upgraded!

Wow, it’s hard to believe that we’re only 3 months into the Podcast Websites beta programme – time flies when you’re having fun, right!

The last 3 months have been as much about learning from you as they have been about supporting you in your podcasting journey – the feedback you’ve been giving us has been constructive, useful and extremely positive; thank you.

We’ve been working hard on 2 updates for you, the first of which we rolled out today.

This update brings v0.6 of the system to Founding Members and is the first of two updates that we will be rolling out in quick succession.

What’s changed?

v0.6 is a maintenance release that prepares your website for the monster that is v0.7 and brings with it the following:
Huge speed improvements to your website

  • A more flexible knowledgebase that allows us to show you the best order in which to view the tutorials
  • A tweak that optimizes the dashboard experience for users on smaller laptops
  • A support fix that was causing some users to see response times 1 hour more than they actually are
  • A support fix that addresses some users seeing a different support team member’s name in the response field
  • A plugin fix for a third party plugin that caused some users issues when switching themes
  • An update for people using membership plugins to ensure roles are set more comprehensively
  • A bug fix that stops blog posts and podcast episodes being shown in the “Episodes” page if you haven’t selected that behaviour
  • A fix that addresses a bug affecting a portion of users’ latest podcast episode title and publish date not showing in the Dashboard
  • A fix to the “back” button in Dashboard > Support
  • A change to the support notification location in the front-end of your website

Did you know: we also proactively update all of your website plugins and themes on a daily basis, as well as applying WordPress updates for you to ensure that your website is always completely up-to-date and secure?

What will v0.7 bring?

  • Podcast download statistics (beta)!
  • A brand new, MASSIVELY customizable Podcast Websites design theme that is going to transform how you build your site
  • A brand new drag-and-drop page builder that works in complete tandem with the new theme, allowing you to create endless page layouts and make your site truly unique
  • A fully stocked knowledgebase that will show you exactly how to make the most of all of the new features

You will be automatically upgraded to v0.7 on Friday, June 12th
