Disable widget animation 🤪

Published on Jul 06 2022 at 10:39 PM (2 years ago)

When the widget loads for the first time in your product you will notice that it has a very subtle animation.

If you find it distracting, it can be easily disabled by adding the following tag to the widget:

enable-animation="false"

New Feature

Would you like to know which users are seeing your posts?

Published on Jun 08 2022 at 08:13 PM (2 years ago)

They say that data is knowledge and knowledge is power.

This new feature that we are releasing today is going to give you a lot of data, knowledge and power to make decisions.

It will allow you to know which user have seen each one your posts.

Unfortunately this implementation only works for new post views since today and you must add an extra parameter to the widget.

This is what you need to do:

Step 1.
Make changes in your widget. 
Here is a quick step by step on what you need to do.

Step 2.

Find the posts you would like to know more about and click "Who has seen my post?".
It's important to note that this information will be available only for the post views after performing step #1


Step 3.

See your data.

Improvement

Changed the way to store the amount of new updates in the widget.

Published on Feb 08 2022 at 05:41 PM (3 years ago)

We were having some issues with the current way of storing data for the user facing widget (the one you use on your product) related to local storage.  Some logout implementations usually delete all local storage, therefore erasing all the widget data.  This caused that each time a user logged out and the logged in it would appear as if it hasn't seen any of the updates, therefore creating confussion.

We switched to cookies to fix this issue. 

For privacy matters it only stores the id from last seen post.
