What's new in Softr

Those of you building an internal portal and wanting to list your organization you can now display them in a deliciously neat organizational chart. Whether it be the leaders, team, or board; see how everyone is connected in a single interface. Find the block by searching 'Organizational Chart' then, connect your Airtable as you would with any of the List blocks and see the magic come together.

Detailed instructions on setting up the block here.

It gets better. Again, for those of you that are billing your users on your monetised application this one is big. You can now enable them to see all their billing info in a beautiful interface directly from within the application. Look for the 'Simple billing form' block and add it into your build.

You can find instructions on configuring the block here.

Another week, another set of blocks get a touch-up. This week, it's the kanban board, charts, and maps. You will need to add these new blocks in manually to enjoy the new styling.

Does exactly what is says on the tin! We are super excited to add this in. Simply connect your Airtable data (surprise) and you're good to go. Display events in a daily, weekly, or monthly format and you can even enjoy the integrated search and filtering options allowing your users to be in control of what is displayed. Neat. Please note, this is still in Beta.

We know a lot of you have put together some great products and services and a crucial piece of your application is to capture payments regardless of where you customer is based or how they want to pay.

We're pleased to tell you the pricing block can now accept more payment methods! Including Apple Pay, Klarna, iDeal, and more. You do need to enable this on Stripe's side (of your Stripe integration), but it will now work as smooth as butter on Softr's frontend.

Need to showcase a PDF doc seamlessly into the interface of your page? Well check out this hot new solution! To achieve this, simply select 'PDF' as the type in your List Details block. Also, you will need to have added your PDF link under an 'Attachments' field in Airtable. It is currently limited to the List Details block but will be opened up beyond this specific block in the future!

At Softr, we are continually improving the UI of our existing blocks too. This week, the victim is the Forms block receiving its own small cosmetic changes. Once again, you will be prompted to update the block with the click of a button. Don't worry, all the content will still be there and you can enjoy the new interface right away!

Investors. Want to enhance oversight of your portfolio whilst strengthening communication between your partners? With our new Investor portal template you can now keep track of companies receiving investment, keep an eye on funding rounds, and share updates to your LPs in a beautiful and interactive way. Of course, you can isolate this to see your own portfolio too!

Building a community? Well, you can now let your users' profile come to life with the option for them to now add their own image or avatar on their profile.

You can enable this personal touch through the 'My-Profile' block itself. Simply toggle the 'Hide/Show' option under the Profile Image - and your users will get to add their pic!

Let's get straight into it! To ease you in, we will start with the small cosmetic improvements we've made to the table-block. Of course, if you're already using this block, it's entirely up to you if you wish to upgrade it; you will be prompted to do so when next interacting with it from the settings panel. Nothing grand, but will certainly create a more fluid and friendlier interface for your users. Get a glimpse of how it looks in the image below!

For those of you building multiple applications, wanting to migrate only pieces of your old application, or wanting to duplicate blocks to other pages of the same application this one is going to save you plenty of time.

If you have a block you want to duplicate, you can now do so across different applications and pages too. Just like you would duplicate a block on the same page, you will now also be offered the option to 'copy to another page'. Simply click the option from the menu bar, and select the application (and then page) you want to duplicate the block to! Smart.

As the saying goes "it's the little things in Softr that make you happy". Starting from today you can now quickly change the name of your application from within the studio editor with the click of a button.
