Hey guys! Here are some updates on some of the bugs that Team Genesiv worked on for the past week:

Logout Modal

We successfully addressed and rectified the issue of the logout modal randomly appearing for users.

Private Channel Access

Previously, there were issues with users experiencing delays in real-time access to private channels after owners or administrators assigned them roles with access privileges. We have successfully resolved this issue, ensuring seamless and immediate access for affected users.

Reactions in DM

One of our users reported a bug in which emoji reactions were not working within Direct Messages and Direct Message Channels. We have promptly resolved and fixed this issue.

We really appreciate your help in identifying and reporting bugs to us! Feel free to reach out to us anytime in the Official Genesiv Community if you encounter any bugs or have any queries! :)

Hi all! Here are some updates for what the team has been working on the past week:

Updates

Banners

While finishing up the final touches for the addition of images in our banners, we have decided to incorporate the Rich Text Editor tool into our banners to streamline the banner creation process. Rich text editors provide a wide range of formatting options, which will allow you to customise banner text with features such as bold and italic styling, various font types and sizes, text colour changes, bullet points and numbered lists, alignment options and Call to Action hyperlinks. You can also add images directly with this tool!

Member Insights and Surveys

The team has been looking into enhancing user profiles, providing community owners with in-depth insights into member activity, including recent channel messages. We are also developing a customizable survey feature for owners to gather profile information from members of their community. Stay tuned for further updates!

Fixes in Progress

• Notification count for the desktop app is not being displayed on the app icon
• UI bugs related to private channel request management

Hi all! Over the past week, the team has been working on bug fixes that have been reported and here are some of them that have been pushed:

@deleted-role Bug

A bug had surfaced where, when users mentioned "@all" in a message, it was wrongly displayed as "@deleted-role." This bug has been swiftly addressed and rectified thanks to a user who reported it!

DM Channel Message Width

We've also managed to resolve an issue where lengthy paragraphs in the text input box for DM Channels were cut off.

Daily Digest Emails

We've addressed the issue that was preventing specific community members from receiving their Daily Digest Emails. Now, if you have email notifications enabled and haven't logged in for 24 hours, you'll automatically receive the Daily Digest Email.

Scroll Position Issues

We have fixed the bug where the page does not scroll to bottom when users reply to a message or share an image in a channel, as well as the bug where the page scrolls to bottom whenever a user reacts to a message.

Hey everyone! Here's what the team has been working on the past week:

New Updates

Events

The team has been brainstorming ideas and coming up with designs for a new feature, Events. This addition allows community owners to effortlessly schedule events in audio/video channels, external websites or physical locations. This feature isn't just about organisation; it's a powerful tool to boost engagement and enhance the sense of community. Imagine the possibilities: from live Q&A sessions to scheduled educational courses, members will receive timely notifications, ensuring they never miss out on the action. Here's a sneak peek of what we currently have so far!

Banner

We have also received suggestions from some of our users on the ability to upload images within banners. Community owners will be able to add eye-catching visuals to banners in channels. Whether it's sharing promotional codes, welcoming new members, or directing attention to important links, the addition of images can help you convey your message with clarity and visual appeal. Stay tuned as we share more updates once this new feature is complete!

Fixes

• Bug related to @all role showing as @deleted-role
• Long paragraphs getting cut off at the side in DM Channels

Hi all! Here's what the team has been working on the past week:

New Updates

Channel Password Protection

Your community's privacy and security have always been one of our top priorities. We have been coming up with a new feature that allows community owners to password protect their channels. When turned on, members will have to enter the password whenever they want to access the channel. This provides an extra layer of exclusivity and security on top of the option to make channels private and limit access to specific users or roles. Your community, your rules!

Ignore X-Frame Options

Many community owners have found success using our "Embed iFrame & Embeds" feature to embed external websites within their channels. However, we're aware that certain websites have restrictions that limit this embedding capability. To address this, we're introducing the "Ignore X-Frame Options" feature, which lets you bypass these restrictions. We're enthusiastic about how this feature can open up exciting opportunities for your communities to share an even wider range of content.

As we delve into this feature, we understand there may be concerns about potential security compromises when bypassing these restrictions. To ensure a safe environment, if owners decide to enable the "Ignore X-Frame Options" feature, password protection becomes a requirement. This dual-layered approach guarantees that your community can embrace new possibilities without sacrificing security.

Fixes

• Bug related to fetching users with the search function on User List
• Fix for missing container in Language Settings page
• Desktop notification UI bug

Hi all! We have pushed the latest version of Genesiv, which contains important fixes for Audio and Video Channels:

Audio and Video Channels Fixes

• With feedback from users, we have fixed the bug where users are unable to select and save their media input and output device properly.
• We've resolved the concern related to the accent stroke around active speakers, which wasn't consistently displayed. This helps participants readily identify who's talking in the conversation, fostering smoother interactions within audio channels.

• The team has also been refining the UI for both the Focus and Grid views of participants in video channels. This improvement enriches the visual aspect of your interactions, making it easier to switch between different viewing modes and enhancing your overall engagement during video calls.

EV Certificate for Custom Desktop App

In addition to our ongoing efforts in refining the audio and video channels, we've been diligently focused on enhancing the accessibility and usability of our desktop and mobile applications. We understand that some users encountered installation errors specifically with the desktop app on Windows systems. To address this, we're excited to share that we're in the process of obtaining an Extended Validation (EV) certificate. This significant step will ensure a smoother installation process for our Windows desktop app and also bolster security and trust for our entire user community. We appreciate your patience and support as we work to bring these improvements to you!

Hi all! Here are some features and fixes that the team has been working on:

New Updates

Hyperlink Channels

We will be starting development on a new feature, Hyperlink Channels. This addition allows community owners to add URLs to the channels list. With a single click, members can access the linked websites in a new page. This functionality is particularly useful for curating and sharing valuable resources. Picture a community tailored for graphic designers – using the Hyperlink Channel, community owners can offer instant access to resource websites, design documents or design tools!

Header Body Code Snippets

The team has also been hard at work brainstorming ideas for a cutting-edge feature: Header/Body Code Snippets. This empowers community owners to effortlessly insert code snippets, unlocking endless possibilities for functionality, data tracking, and customisation. Imagine seamlessly integrating Google Tag Manager to track vital community data, or using custom CSS scripts to further personalise your community's appearance. Stay tuned for updates on this addition that's set to elevate your community experience!

We have also been updating our help articles (to include all our new features and improvements we've added recently) to provide community owners with clear and concise guidance every step of the way.

Remove Emoji Reactions

We've received feedback from some users about members in their community using inappropriate emoji reactions to messages in channels.
