Delay in publishing changelogs

 

Fix

  

Some scheduled changelogs, tweets, and slack messages queued up this weekend and were not published on time. We fixed the issue and all delayed publications should be out 😇

Changing the author

 

Improvement

  

Now you can select which member of your team will be displayed as the author on your public page.

Mailto links fix

 

Fix

  

A bug in the editor caused mailto links to stop working. We fixed the issue and all affected changelogs.

Working mailto link 😎

Externally triggering widget popover

 

Improvement

  

Until today you could only trigger the widget popover only by clicking on the badge, but sometimes it makes sense to toggle the popover from an external link, say like we do above, with the Release notes link.

Getting it implemented is really simple, just add the trigger option to the widget config, the value can be any selector (for example, .widgetTrigger or #toggle-headway-widget).

The full config would look like this:

let HW_config = {
  account: "...",
  selector: "...",
  trigger: ".externalTrigger"
}

For more configuration options see our widget documentation.

Scheduled publishing

 

New

  

Pretty self-explanatory – just pick a date in the future, publish the post and we'll handle the rest!

The feature is available for PRO accounts.

SSL certificates for all custom domains 🔐

 

Improvement

  

This year we started periodically generating SSL certificates for all custom domains. We want security and privacy to be important features of Headway.

Now we are happy to announce that the process has been fully automated and within minutes new custom domains start serving traffic over secure https protocol.

Check out our updated documentation to see how you can configure your own custom domain.
