This week we’ve got a shiny new Image Details page, some small but mighty tweaks across the board, and a handful of fixes to make your dashboard life just a bit smoother.
Let’s take a peek! 👀
🌟 Brand-New Image Details Page!
Your favorite behind-the-scenes image panel just got a makeover—and it's so much faster now! Whether you’re digging into face match data or reviewing contact info, everything’s loading snappier and more clearly than ever.
You’ll notice:
• Cleaner layout 🧼
• Larger image preview
• Speedy load times ⚡
• Better organization of metadata 🗂️
Details, Participants, and Logs have also been split into three distinct tabs!
Go ahead, give it a click from the Manage Images page or a Participant's Details page!
You can even hover highlighted faces with your mouse to view attached Participants!
In case you need to know how to get to the Image Details page!
🔧 Misc Changes & Improvements
Some smart, helpful little tweaks that add up to a smoother experience:
🔗 Image Details links added to image previews on the Participant Details page (because shortcuts are life).
🖼️ Free Download / Medium-Res Download for QuicPics™ Events are now set to a 2:3 aspect ratio—perfect for showcasing your 2:3 Full Frame overlay art!
📦 Better retail display for big packages: Packages with 5+ items are now prettier, yay!
A look at the new 5+ Item Package graphic! Retail Theme: Liquorice - Event Program: QuicPics
🎯 Face Matching Confidence level is now selectable during Event Creation, not just after. Set your confidence from the start!
🛡 GalleryGuard™ has been updated to work even on iOS 26. The screenshots stay black. The images stay safe.
🐛 Bug Fixes
A few pesky things we squashed this week:
🚫 The Unassigned Images count no longer includes BGR cutouts that have already been matched. More accurate image management FTW.
🔄 Some Events were having trouble loading the Manage Images page. That glitch has now been zapped. 💥
That’s all for now!
Be sure to check out the new Image Details page, and if you haven’t yet, try out GalleryGuard™ on your own iOS device—it’s basically wizardry. 🧙♂️
Candy here with another round of updates from the NowCandid™ world.
This week brings big improvements for Face Matching™ Events, new ways to re-use your check-ins across Events, and a couple of helpful tweaks to the retail site and image management tools.
Let’s dive in! 👇
⏳ Face Matching™ Now Lasts 60 Days!
That’s right—your Face Matching™ window has now doubled from 30 to 60 days from your Event's Start Date! 🙌
This means even more time for:
• Late uploads to still get matched 🔄
• Schools to send out the Selfie Check-In™ link after the Event 📬
• Stragglers to find their photos 🧍♀️🧍♂️🧍
But here’s your friendly reminder: the faster you upload, the better your sales! 🏃♂️💸
📸 Every image uploaded goes through:
• Exposure correction automatically
• Optional cart-wide light retouching for customers
• Manual review for print color accuracy
• Intuitive cropping tools for end users
So don’t sit on your images to batch-edit them all—uploading sooner = more sales.
Every day that passes = potential sales slipping by. Speed matters!
🔁 Create PhotoRosters™ from Selfie Check-Ins!
This one’s a fun one for graduation season! 🎓
Now you can create a PhotoRoster™ directly from the Selfie Check-Ins™ of a previous Event.
Here’s why it’s awesome:
• Rana great Prom with tons of Check-Ins? ✅
• Reuse that same data to auto-create your graduation PhotoRoster™! 🎓
• If participants Check-In again or get added via Tap-A-Face™, NowCandid™ automatically merges based on contact info = no duplicate galleries, no confusion!
Perfect for client relationships where you cater to all of their school's Events!
🧰 Misc. Improvements & Fixes
A few extra goodies for your workflow this week:
🔠 New image name sort option on the Manage Images page (great for keeping sequences clean).
📲 Prominent Selfie Check-In™ button added to All Images galleries (so folks can find their pics even faster!).
🧾 A “non-refundable” tag has been added to the shopping cart & receipt for digital items to help set better expectations.
(Digital photography = no take-backs! This helps avoid confusion.)
That’s all for now! 🎉
If you have any questions about the new features, you can always reach me from your dashboard! 💬
See you next week for more enhancements and pro tips!
Candy here with your weekly dose of NowCandid™ updates!
We’ve rolled out some helpful new features to make check-ins smoother, shopping more intuitive, and checkouts faster. Let’s take a peek! 👀
🌍 ¡Check-In en Español!
We’ve added Spanish language support for all customer check-in pages, including:
• Selfie Check-In™
• Simple Check-In
• Scan Card Check-In
The system will auto-detect the user’s browser language and serve the Spanish version when appropriate.
More languages are planned in the future, so stay tuned! 🌐
Bonus: We also have added Spanish versions of the Privacy Policy & Terms of Use for end customers to use!
🛍 Easier Package Shopping 🖼️
Package selection just got a serious upgrade! 🎁
When a customer is picking images for each item in a Package, they’ll now see:
• Tabs to toggle between All Images and their Personal Gallery
• Pagination to easily flip through the All Images Tab
This is especially useful when customers are shopping for Packages directly from a link to the All Images Gallery — now it’s easier to browse and find their perfect shot! 💫
🛠 Miscellaneous Fixes & Tweaks
Here’s a quick roundup of other small (but mighty!) improvements this week:
🏷️ Empty PhotoTags™ no longer appear on the retail site — cleaner and simpler for your customers!
💸 Venmo now shows up more consistently as an express checkout option.
📅 Interested in attending Summer Seminar 2025 in OKC? Head to the Profile Page in your dashboard for the invite and sign-up link!
🐞 Tons of small bug fixes and polish across the platform. We’re always working to keep things speedy, intuitive, and delightful!
See you next week with more exciting improvements!
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
