IMPROVEMENTS

🌈 Content Hub: Added Filters to Previous Posts

We've listened to your feedback and made it quicker and easier to find posts for certain Channels or by certain Authors.

💅 Re-design of the post layout on smaller screens

Sometimes the layout of posts looked a bit funky in Week + Month views when using smaller screens. We've tweaked the design here to make actions larger and clearer.

That's it for now folks. Have a great Christmas and a Happy New Year 🎉🎉🎉

Certain versions of Safari caused issues for post-loading within Content Hub. We've made some code tweaks to make everything look pretty again 💅.

We've fixed a bug that prevented some people from being able to move Calendar Notes to different days.

ContentCal Respond updates

A huge thank you to everyone who helped with our Respond Beta. We are now wrapping things up and moving into our 'Preview Release'. If you previously applied for the Beta and didn't get access, we will be rolling out many more invites over the next few weeks.

💎 NEW: Facebook Messenger is now in Respond.

You can now reply to customers via Facebook. Facebook Messages was a hugely requested feature for us, so we are super happy to get this out into the world.

⚡️ Instant messages

Our Beta had limitations on how quickly new Messages appear in Respond. This new update means all Tweets and Facebook Messages are now instant.

🐛 Minor UI updates and bug fixes

• Various 'under the hood' fixes and improvements
