LC Phone

Enhancements & Bug Fixes

  • Dialer > Calling From now supports search by Friendly name of the phone number.
  •  Call any phone number associated with a contact, including secondary numbers
  • If a user with an assigned phone number tried calling with the new dialer, the call should use their assigned phone number by default. This was not happening in some cases. It has now been fixed.

Opportunities

Expanded Opportunity Views

The opportunity list view and Kanban view now include several additional fields to help users monitor and manage their opportunities more effectively:

  • Days Since Last Stage Change Date: Quickly assess how long an opportunity has remained in its current stage.
  • Days Since Last Status Change Date: Monitor the freshness of the opportunity status for timely follow-ups.
  • Days Since Last Updated: Keep track of the most recent interactions or updates.
  • Next Task Due Date: Visualize upcoming tasks to manage deadlines efficiently.
  • Days Till Next Task Due Date: Calculate the time remaining until the next scheduled task.
  • Days Till Next Appointment Date: Anticipate upcoming appointments to ensure all engagements are timely.

Sorting and export features have been extended to the following fields:

  • Days Since Last Stage Change Date
  • Days Since Last Status Change Date
  • Days Since Last Updated

The Contact Details folder has been renamed to Primary Contact Details. This change clarifies the contents of the folder and helps users quickly locate the most relevant contact information, enhancing overall usability and organization.

Cookie Consent V2 Overview

The latest updates to the cookie consent banner enhance user control over cookie preferences, ensuring compliance with privacy regulations.

  • All-New Layout Options: Users can now choose from various layout positions, including new floating banner styles.
  • Customizable Cookie Consent Popup: A new “Customize” button allows visitors to enable or disable predefined cookie categories.
    Visitors can also view detailed cookie information, including:

    • Description
  • Consent Expiration Settings: Users can set a custom expiry period (in days) after which visitors must provide consent again.
  • Blocking Non-Essential Cookies by Default: Upon initial page load, all non-essential cookies are blocked until consent is granted. Once consent is given, the page refreshes, allowing scripts to set cookies based on the visitor’s choices. Any cookies that don’t match the specified patterns or categories will not be set.
  • Custom Code Samples: New code samples have been added to allow users to read consent types or categories of accepted cookies.
  • Managing the Cookie List: The Cookie List feature enables users to enable or disable different types of cookies. Visitors can select which cookies to allow.
  • Predefined Cookie Categories:
    • Essential – Required for website functionality (always enabled).
    • Functional – Supports features like social media sharing and feedback collection.
    • Analytics – Tracks visitor behavior (e.g., page views, bounce rates).
    • Performance – Helps optimize site speed and user experience.
    • Advertising – Used for targeted ads and marketing.
    • Uncategorized – Any cookies not assigned to the above categories.
  • Adding Cookies to Categories: For each cookie, specify:
    • Cookie Key – Name of the cookie (supports regex patterns for multiple cookies). Cookies are blacklisted or whitelisted based on the selected category.
    • Duration – How long the cookie lasts (e.g., 1 day, 30 days, 1 year).
    • Domain – The domain setting the cookie.
    • Description – Purpose of the cookie.
  • Using Regex Patterns: You can use regex patterns to match multiple cookies, such as:
    • Cookies starting with “ga-” (e.g., ga-1234, ga-3241).
    • Meta Pixel cookies.
    • Google Analytics cookies.

Reporting

Improved Control Over Date Properties

Previously, when scheduling a report email, you were required to select a global date range, which applied to all widgets—even if some widgets had their own custom date settings.
Now, you have more control over how date properties are handled in your reports with the Use Widget-Level Date Settings option.

How It Works:

  1. If enabled, widgets with custom date ranges and comparisons will retain those settings in the emailed report.
  2. If disabled, all widgets will follow the global report date range selected during scheduling.

Payments

Support for Delayed Payments in Custom Invoice Providers

With this update, we’ve expanded the functionality to also support delayed payment methods for transactions associated with invoices, making it easier for clients to manage invoice payments using custom payment providers.

  • Delayed Payment Methods for Invoices: Custom payment providers now support delayed payment methods for transactions tied to invoices, in addition to orders.
  • Payment Updates via Webhook: Just like orders, the payment.captured webhook event will now update both the transaction and the associated invoice with the relevant data based on the webhook payload.
  • Invoice Status Update: The invoice status will be automatically marked as PAID when the transaction is successfully processed, based on the webhook event received.
    Impact:
  • Improvement in Invoice Management: Clients can now utilize delayed payment methods for invoices via a custom payment provider, allowing for more flexible payment options and better management when processing invoices.
  • Hassle-Free Invoice Charging: Clients can now easily charge their invoices to customers, even when using delayed payment methods provided by the custom payment provider, giving them a hassle-free experience.
  • Accurate Transaction and Invoice Status Updates:  transaction and invoice statuses are now automatically and accurately reflected in FGF once a delayed payment method has been completed for the the custom payment provider.

 

Configure Stripe Payment methods in various checkouts

Now you can configure Stripe payment methods directly in FGF instead of configuring them on Stripe’s dashboard. These payment methods can be enabled/disabled for multiple product areas as listed below in both Live and Test modes separately. For existing customers the default payment methods against product areas or checkouts would be as per their existing configurations on Stripe. Editing these payment methods on Stripe will be disabled going forward.

Only payment methods available within a checkout would be visible in that product area/checkout’s list. For Subscription products, a separate list under a drop-down called ‘Subscriptions’ is available. If there is a subscription product there in the checkout, this setting would over-write the default settings of that checkout. Also, as per Stripe, this setting is only accessible after addition of at least one subscription in Live mode in that account.

Product Areas/Checkouts Covered:

  • Invoices
  • Invoices with AutoPayments
  • Payment Links
  • Funnels – One-Step Order Form
  • Funnels – Two-Step Order Form
  • Forms
  • Ecommerce Stores
  • Calendars
  • Courses
  • Communities
  • Subscriptions

Settings can be found under Payments > Integrations > Stripe > Manage Payment Methods.

 

Prospecting

Customer List Custom Audience using Smart Lists

We’ve added a GBP Claim Status Check to the Marketing Audit Report, allowing users to verify if a business’s Google Business Profile (GBP) is claimed. This enhancement improves visibility and provides valuable insights, making it easier for users to check their GBP status and take the necessary steps to strengthen their online presence. Report data displays key verified GBP details, including:

  • Business Address
  • Business Website
  • Google Photos
  • Operational Hours
  • Phone Number

A new External Link provides quick access to your Google Business Profile (GBP) for seamless profile management. Additionally, the Unresponded Reviews Section now highlights unanswered reviews from Google and Facebook, helping users quickly identify and respond to feedback, ensuring better engagement with customers.
