Section Updates

  • CTA Section

  • CTA GridNew CTA-based sections have blown the door off the hinges of the use case factory. They support the creating of landing pages and nested playlists, linking to a calendar or any other external resource (including other hubs), complex sitemaps, and many more page configurations.

Menu Updates

  • Custom menu itemsYour Hub menu is now completely customizable with external links, pages, or playlists. Click Customizer -> Appearance -> Customize Menu to explore the new capabilities available there. You can set the menu to insert new items automatically as you add media to the hub, link to custom Hub pages (NEW) and/or attach an external resource like a workbook or calendar sign-up.

  • PagesCustom pages are another major feature introduced to increase the variety of use cases Hubs are able to tackle. These pages can essentially act as additional Hubs inside of your Hub, with all of the custom visibility settings you could ask for.

    This was an important update to ensure your audience is able to revisit your Hub on their own without needing to "Reset Password" or request a new magic link.

Appearance Updates

  • Custom typography is now available in the Appearance menu. Add any Google Font to your Hub.

  • Text in the Hub will now dynamically adjust colour to contrast the background of the element it's on.

  • Audience variables are now available for Hub text sections. I.e. {{name}}, {{phone}}, and {{email}} can be used in the text fields to personalize each view of the Hub to the person viewing it. This is an advanced feature, let us know if you'd like to learn more about it.
