Hey photo friends! 👋

‍
This week is a mix of one new product and a handful of refinements across retail pricing, check-in validation, and Dashboard tools.

‍

Here’s what changed.

‍

🆕 New Product

‍

🖼️ 24×8 Panoramic Print (Group-only)‍

A new panoramic option in the same aspect ratio as the other pano prints, built for team and group shots. (Like the others, it’s group-only.)

‍

🛍️ Retail: Pricing & Editing Improvements

‍

💸 Package “slashed” pricing corrected and standardized‍

Fixes around week 2/3 slash amounts so package comparisons are more accurate and consistent (including cases where tiered pricing is disabled on Quic events).

‍

✍️ Captions editor now allows hyphens and periods‍

Small change, big relief for subjects with multi-hyphenate names.

‍

✅ Check-In Page: Better Email Validation

‍

📧 Improved email validation‍

Now also requires at least one period
Now blocks obvious typos like addresses ending in “.con”
These are in addition to previously existing "catches" we had in place to help customers avoid typos

‍

👥 Additional Contacts now use the same validation rules‍

Makes additional contact info more typo-proof too!

‍

🖥️ Dashboard: Fewer Snags, More Visibility

‍

🧪 Image Tester now supports PNG files‍

Helpful for validating cutouts and art files.

‍

📏 Improved DPI validation for artwork uploads (and Image Tester)

Better handling for images that don’t explicitly include DPI metadata.

‍

📦 Package editor expanded limits‍

You can now include up to 16 4×6 and 5×7 prints in a package
(Digital downloads remain capped at 16; most other items remain capped at 8).

‍

📁 Manage Images: Folder Download fixed for large folders‍

Folders over 100 images now reliably download in multiple ZIPs (no more stopping after the first chunk).

‍

🧾 Order Details page got a big clarity upgrade‍

You can now see key indicators and selections more directly, including:

✨ product finish/overlay indicators
🖼️ backgrounds / AI background indicators (where applicable)
📝 captions and chosen colors
⬇️ background downloads working correctly again

‍

🍬 Candy Culler Improvements

‍

📊 Results update automatically while culling runs‍

As progress changes, search results refresh so culled images can appear without you manually refreshing.

‍

🗂️ New downloadable folder report‍

Quick export alongside the toggle for easier review/sharing.

‍

💬 Misc

‍

📲 Day 0 SMS link placement updated‍

The retail link now appears after the unsubscribe text to encourage better MMS link previews.

‍

That’s the week!

‍

Another new pano option, tighter retail pricing presentation, cleaner check-ins, and a more informative Dashboard where it counts.

📸 Candy’s 12 Days of Christmas: Day 6 – Action Photography Features 🏃‍♀️✨

minutes read

Hello again, energetic photographers! 🎅

‍

Candy here, and welcome to Day 6 of our 12 Days of Christmas countdown.

‍

Over the past five days, we’ve looked back at various 2024 upgrades, and today’s topic is all about action-packed events. Let’s highlight the Action Photography Features that truly elevated your sports and high-energy shoots this year.

‍

Key Highlights:

‍

Dynamic Galleries:
‍
End customers can add images to their personal gallery on the fly. As they add more shots, the personal gallery download product dynamically adjusts its price based on the image count. This means fair and flexible pricing that suits the number of images they actually want.

‍

‍
‍

View Photos in Sequence (SportsPics):
‍
We introduced a handy "view photos in sequence" button. Clients viewing their SportsPics personal gallery can easily see images taken before and after any particular photo. This helps them find action shots where their face might not be visible, ensuring they never miss a key moment from a play or performance.

‍

These features empowered action photographers to showcase entire sequences, helping clients relive each second of the excitement.

‍

It turned browsing galleries into a more interactive, personalized experience. 🎉

‍

Check back tomorrow for Day 7, as we continue our festive journey through the year’s top improvements.

‍

And remember, something special waits under the tree on December 25th!

📸 Candy’s 12 Days of Christmas: Day 5 – International Customer Support 🌍✨

minutes read

Hello again, globally-minded photographers! 🎅

‍

Candy here, and welcome to Day 5 of our 12 Days of Christmas countdown.

‍

So far, we’ve revisited the New Dashboard, New Retail Site, Offer Creator, and Capture & Upload App Version 4. Today, let’s talk about International Customer Support, a 2024 expansion that opened doors for you worldwide.

‍

When we introduced international support, we wanted to ensure your business could reach clients no matter where they were.

‍

‍

Here’s what made it possible:

‍

Global Marketing Texts & Links:
‍
Major countries now receive marketing messages just like your local clients, helping you stay connected across borders.
‍
International Orders & Shipping:
‍
Clients from virtually any country can order digital and physical products. We calculate shipping fees dynamically based on order contents and destination, making checkout smooth and transparent.

‍

This international reach meant your photos and services could find their way to clients everywhere, letting you tap into new markets and grow your business beyond your home turf. 🎉

‍

Check back tomorrow for Day 6 as we continue this festive journey through 2024’s best features. And remember, something special is coming on December 25th!

📸 Candy’s 12 Days of Christmas: Day 4 – Capture & Upload App Version 4 🎄✨

Hello, my holly-jolly photographers! 🎅

‍

Candy here, and welcome back to Day 4 of our 12 Days of Christmas countdown.

‍

So far, we’ve revisited the new Web Dashboard, the New Retail Site, and the Offer Creator. Today, let’s look at Capture & Upload App Version 4, one of the key updates that kept you snapping and uploading with ease throughout 2024.

‍

When we rolled out Version 4, we aimed to improve both performance and functionality.

‍

‍

Here’s what made it stand out:

‍

Face Boxes on iOS:
‍
Enhanced face detection and clarity for more accurate participant matching.
‍
Performance Improvements:
‍
A smoother, faster app experience, letting you focus on capturing the moment rather than waiting on your device.
‍
Dark Mode for OLED Screens:
‍
Battery-saving and easier on the eyes, perfect for long event days where every percent of battery counts.
‍
Foundation for Future Tools:
‍
This update laid the groundwork for features like GroupTags (stay tuned for Day 7!), ensuring you were ready for the capabilities we’d roll out later in the year.

‍

The Capture & Upload App Version 4 played a crucial role in optimizing your Workflow, and helping you handle busy events with confidence. 🎉

‍

Check back tomorrow for Day 5, as we continue highlighting the top features of 2024. And remember, something extra special awaits on December 25th!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

‍

What’s a Rich Text element?

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.
