This week was spent mostly on performance improvements and various bug fixes. We've launched several major new features in the past couple of months and have had a few bugs crop up as a result of that. We also added discount expiration dates for memberships!

• Features:

  • Added an optional description, expiration date, and expiration countdown timer to discounts. The description and countdown (if set) are shown on the memberships page.

    

• Improvements:

  • Hide the 'subscribe popup' on the /memberships page (since this is where readers will take some call-to-action regardless, so no need to popup here)

  • Added an 'edit' button in the editor, to be more explicit that users can click this to edit posts

  • Post loading performance improvements! Posts in the dashboard now load much faster since we only fetch post content when you click on a post, rather than fetching your entire post history. 20-100x speed improvement for authors with many posts.

  • Also as a convenience, loading full content of top 5 posts in a non-blocking way when you first log into your dashboard.

• Bug fixes:

  • Added loading indicator and disabled state to gating rule delete button.

  • Added duplicate check when adding team members; use error toast to show the error.

  • Fixed several instances of draft badge appearing automatically as you click around posts.

  • Fixed a nasty bug in which editing the same post from multiple windows (or by multiple people) at the same time could cause that post to duplicate.

  • Fixed a number of back-end and front-end bugs around error handling during the post creation and editing flows.

  • Fixed a regression in which the new post loading performance improvement was causing post previews to not be truncated properly for long posts.

  • Fixed various custom domain bugs.

  • Fixed various Farcaster bugs with the discover/trending/following pages.

  • Fixed a bug with the Zora embed image failing to load in the newsletter.
