June 2022 – Monthly Changelog

New Features:

  • We created a new form field type for the Form Manager called "Number – Integer Only". This new form field type will only allow whole numbers (integers) to be saved.
  • We added the ability to clone custom widgets from the Widget Manager page in the Admin.
  • We created 2 new Membership Plan settings called "Assign Referral Credits to Members Who Refer New Sign Ups" and "Credits Assigned to Referring Member". When both settings are enabled, the system will assign credits to any member who refers a new member to sign up, and mentions them as the referring member. To use these new settings, navigate to the Admin >> Finance >> Membership Plans >> Edit >> Sign Ups and Upgrades tab >> Sign Up Settings section.
  • We created a new form field type for the Form Manager called "Calendar – Date & Time Picker".  
  • We added a new way to import members into specific Sub-Sub Categories even if the category has the exact same name as another Sub-Sub Category. When filling out the "services" column in the member import file, the following notation can be used to import the member into both a Sub Category and a specific Sub-Sub Category underneath that Sub Category at the same time: Sub Category Name=>Sub Sub Category Name.


Enhancements / Fixes:

  • We implemented several security updates to prevent XSS injections on the frontend of sites.
  • The "Listing Custom HEAD Code:" and "Listing Custom FOOTER Code:" settings in the Quick Edit form for members will now render widgets entered via shortcode to these fields on the corresponding member's profile page.
