Fresh Look: Reputation Management UI Enhancements

Funnels & Websites
Increased the product purchase limit in Order form
What’s New?
With this update, the product purchase limit is increased from maximum 10 to 999.
Business owners can now set the limit to 999 maximum in funnel products which will be reflected in the order forms.
Old Behaviour
Previously, It was only 10 quantity for each product. So Users can only purchase product with quantity 10 maximum.
New Behavior
Now, We have updated the product limit to 999 and also Changed the user interface for updating the quantity of product in order forms.
How It Works
Go to Funnel products -> click edit on any product -> In Additional options change the limit and save
Once you save the funnel, go to your order form page and you can see the order form with new quantity dropdown.
Pain Point Solved
In one single purchase users can buy 999 quantities of a product.
Payments
We have removed the legal terms being displayed automatically by Stripe on which the businesses were not having any control
This applies to payments on order forms, invoices, and Text2Pay links
Speed Improvements
What’s Changed?
We elimanated a few render-blocking css
The CSS of a few elements that were blocking rendering on page load have now been eliminated, improving overall FCP score and web paint
Preloading icon links
Preloading a few icon CDN links before first paint of page. This speeds up CSS filesdownload for icons used in funnels or websites.
Eager loading images above the fold
Images above the fold i.e viewport on page load will now be eager loaded with lazy=”eager” to improve FCP and LCP
Render popup elements only when the popup is opened
The elements inside popup will render only once the popup is opened, this prevents unnecessary elements getting rendered on page load, improves performance when heavy elements like forms and order forms are placed inside popups.
Reduced initial payload size
Initial payload request size has been reduced significantly, improving faster FCP
What’s Improved?
Significant improvement in pagespeed scores (refer images)
Faster initial web paint
Page is painted much faster than before, improving FCP and perceived page speed (refer images)
Due to payload size reduction, pagespeed tests running on mobile with slow connection can download data faster for better FCP
Huge improvement in desktop and mobile speed tests

CRM Contacts Updates
Addition of new filters to Smartlists
What’s New?
These new filters offer enhanced control and flexibility when listing contacts, enabling users to fine-tune their searches and find the exact contacts they need. Here’s a description of the filters based on the newly added fields:
Created By Filter: This filter allows users to search for contacts based on the user responsible for creating a particular contact record. It helps in identifying contacts associated with specific user.
Last Updated By Filter: With this filter, users can find contacts based on the user that made the most recent updates to a contact record. It’s useful for tracking changes contact updates over time.
Inbound DND Settings Filter: Users can now filter contacts based on their “DND” status for inbound communications.
DND Settings Filter: This filter allows users to search for contacts with channel-wise “DND” preferences for outbound communications.
Website Filter: Users can filter contacts based on the website associated with them.
Instagram ID Filter: This filter enables users to filter contacts having Instagram ID field..
Facebook ID Filter: With this filter, users can search for contacts having Facebook ID field.
Country Filter: Users can now filter contacts based on country.

Enhancements
Along with these new filters we have added additional phones, additional emails, timezone, country & website columns to smartlist table and contacts export.
New opportunity modal
We are excited to introduce the latest enhancements, which include the addition of a new opportunity modal to both the contact smart list and contact details page. Now, whenever someone attempts to create an opportunity from either the contact detail or smart list page, all the relevant information for that contact will be automatically pre-filled.
Payments and Invoices
Void Sent/Overdue/Paid Invoices || Refunds for manual payments
Businesses will now be able to void a sent/overdue/paid invoice
This solves a major pain point when a client cancels in between a scheduled recurring template and there are some pending invoices that were never paid. Voiding an invoice eliminates the friction with such invoices which are no longer collectible and disturb the overall payments statistics
If the invoice was paid (card payments or recorded manually), the associated transaction needs to be fully refunded first to void the paid invoice
Businesses also have the option now to fully/partially refund manual payments recorded on invoices
Voided invoices will not be visible in the list view by default, but can be specifically filtered using the Void filter
If an invoice is voided, it will not affect the invoice statistics displayed on the Invoices list page
Audit logs will be maintained for all the void, delete and refund actions performed
Calendars
Add guests
With this enhancement users would have the new option in Add Guest, where in they can now select if they want their attendees to Add Guests by providing their Name and Emails or can simply select a count.
Count option for Adding Guests: This helps particularly in the use case where in the Primary attendee may not have the Email address of the guest, but still want them added to the appointment.
Custom Form in the email to Guests: In many cases the attendees are required to fill in the information before the appointment, so that the service providers can use that information for the appointment. Examples:
Tour services: May require passport number, passport expiry and other financial details.
Medical appointment: it could be allergies, any genetic ailment, past medical issues etc.
Please note: The custom form feature only works when the Primary attendee has added Name and Email of the Guests, it would not work for the Count option. Users can decide between in the Name and Email or Count from the Calendars settings based on their own use case.
