Smarter post-login

 

Improvement

 

 

If you follow a link to Carrot, but are not logged in, Carrot now brings you to the link location after you complete the login.

Receive comment notifications in-app only

 

New

 

 

There's now an option to not receive comment notifications by email or Slack.

Share to Slack for all

 

Improvement

 

 

Carrot now allows users that sign in by email to share posts to the Slack workspace for Slack using teams with the Carrot bot enabled.

Post title in notifications

 

Improvement

 

 

Carrot now includes the post title in the email or Slack message that notifies you of new comments or mentions.

Who's Seen this Post on mobile

 

New

 

 

When using Carrot in a mobile web browser, you can now see who's seen each post.

More YouTube URLs

 

Improvement

 

 

We've updated our handling of YouTube URLs to be much more accommodating of all the different types of YouTube URLs there are out in the wild. If we missed one, and you have a YouTube URL that isn't working right in Carrot, please let us know!

Use last section as default on new posts

 

Improvement

 

 

Usually Carrot uses the section you are looking at the default section when you're creating a new post. That makes good sense, but sometimes you are creating a post and not in a section (All posts, Must see, Drafts). It's just a little thing, but now when you create a new post it defaults to the section you last used when creating a post.

Privacy and Terms of Service

 

Fix

 

 

During the frantic scrambling to get launched, we lost our privacy and terms of service links from the footer. They are back. You can rest easy again.

Higher profile "Must see" badge

 

Improvement

 

 

This one is quite a bit easier to notice than what we had before. must-see.png

Unfurl pasted Carrot links in Slack

 

Fix

 

 

During our move out of beta into launch, this capability got broken due to Carrot sub-domain changes.

If you've installed the Carrot Bot into Slack prior to this fix, and you aren't getting your Carrot URLs unfurled, just remove the Carrot Bot from Slack and add it back in.
