Changelog

Weekly notes on what's new in Klixey: features, improvements, fixes, and anything that changes how you or your customers use the platform.

This is the public log

We post the changes that matter to creators here. For live system status (incidents, maintenance), see the status page.

Breaking changes are flagged

If a change affects something you've already set up — pricing, the Store editor, custom domains, customer access — it's flagged with a Breaking change callout at the top of that entry. We also call out relevant changes in the welcome and renewal emails customers receive, so they're not surprised either.

Recent releases

July 1, 2026

New

  • CloudFront video URLs for courses — Alongside uploading a file or embedding from YouTube, Vimeo, or Loom, you can now paste a direct CloudFront MP4 URL as a course welcome or lesson video. See Course videos.

Improved

  • Drag-and-drop cover images — Drag an image straight onto the cover picker to set it as a course video's cover; it's resized for you automatically.
  • Remove a cover image — Clear a video's cover back to the default thumbnail with one click, instead of only being able to replace it.

Fixed

  • Course video cover images no longer disappear on autosave — editing other parts of a lesson could previously wipe its video's cover image.
  • Links in course and community rich text now save reliably — some links could previously fail to save silently.

June 26, 2026

New

  • Embed YouTube, Vimeo & Loom videos in courses — Alongside uploading your own file, you can now paste a YouTube, Vimeo, or Loom link as a course welcome video or lesson video. The video plays right inside the lesson, the same as an uploaded one. See Course videos.
  • Cover images for course videos — Choose a still frame from your video, or upload your own image, to use as its cover. The cover shows as a click-to-play thumbnail on the course welcome screen and lesson pages — for both uploaded and embedded videos. Works for the welcome video and every lesson.

Improved

  • Rebuilt course video editor — The welcome and lesson video block is now a single Upload / Embed control with an inline preview and the new cover picker, and it's fully usable on phones through the mobile edit sheet.
  • Responsive product editor — Product editor panels resize cleanly on smaller screens and include a phone preview, so you can edit and preview your product pages from a phone.

June 22, 2026

New

  • New one-page setup wizard — Signing up now walks you through one continuous wizard instead of a two-page setup: your name and what you sell, your store name and link, an optional photo, and optional social links — with a live preview of your actual storefront building as you go.
  • Starter store matches what you sell — The sample product Klixey creates for you now matches the category you picked (a course, a booking, a community, and so on) instead of one generic placeholder, plus a ready-to-edit "add your links" card.
  • "Finish your store" checklist — A dismissible checklist on your dashboard tracks five setup steps: store created, photo added, first product, payments connected, and your link shared.

Improved

  • Store editor renamed to "Store Settings" — The button that opens store identity, brand, social links, sharing, and domain settings (previously "Edit Appearance") is now labeled Store Settings, since it covers more than appearance.
  • Clearer welcome greeting — Onboarding now greets you by first name instead of your full name.
  • Default price button — Clearer visual feedback and better accessibility when choosing a product's default price.

June 12, 2026

New

  • Order bumps & discount codes — Offer one-time add-on products on a paid product's checkout (up to 10 per product, each with your own headline and description), and create store-wide or product-specific discount codes that customers apply at checkout. One-time paid checkout only — subscriptions and free products are unchanged.
  • Custom storefront favicon — On custom-domain plans, upload your own browser icon from store settings. It shows on your storefront, customer portal, checkout, and coming-soon pages in place of the Klixey icon.

Improved

  • Branded checkout form — The embedded payment form now matches your storefront brand: display name, button color, card background, font, and corner style.
  • Consistent checkout theming — Checkout, plan selection, event slots, appointment calendars, and time pickers now share one brand-driven theme, so everything stays readable on dark, light, and custom brand settings.
  • Store name in the browser tab — Public storefronts now show your store name in the browser tab (using your SEO title, falling back to the store name), branded per plan.
  • Clearer upload errors — Failed image, video, and file uploads now show the real reason (file too large, wrong dimensions, storage limit, corrupt file) instead of a generic failure, and a failed replacement no longer wipes your existing banner.
  • Deliberate slug saving — Store and product URLs are now saved explicitly with a live availability check, instead of changing as you type.

June 5, 2026

New

  • New customer notifications — You now get an email when a customer gains access to one of your products. Sent for paid purchases, free signups, and trial starts on courses, communities, memberships, and digital downloads. Includes the customer's name, email, the product they got, and a link straight to their record in your dashboard. Appointments and event signups continue to use their existing notifications.
  • Edit community resources — Update a resource's title, description, and category after creating it, and switch a paid resource to free.
  • Card style & text color controls — New Theme controls in the Store editor: card style (Flat / Auto-tint / Custom) and text color (Auto / Light / Dark / Custom).

Improved

  • Mobile creator app — The app header, Store editor, and community management are now usable on phones: tab strips, touch-sized buttons, working drag-and-drop, and reachable settings.
  • Branded customer emails — Customer emails now carry your store's logo, a link to your site, and store-branded headers and footers.

How to read an entry

Each entry is dated. Inside, changes are grouped into four buckets:

  • New — features you didn't have last month.
  • Improved — things that already worked but work better now.
  • Fixed — bugs we squashed.
  • Heads up — things that might affect existing setups (this is where breaking changes appear).

We don't ship daily release notes — small fixes accumulate into a weekly summary.

  • Status — current uptime, incidents, and scheduled maintenance.
  • FAQ — answers to common questions.
  • Plans — what's included in your plan today.

Template

The shape every monthly entry follows. (Internal note — keep this section at the bottom of the page.)

Month D, YYYY

Breaking change

(Only include this callout when a change affects existing creators' setups. Otherwise delete.)

New

  • Feature one — what it is, who it's for, link to the relevant guide.
  • Feature two — same shape.

Improved

  • A short, plain-English sentence about what got better. No internals.

Fixed

  • One line per bug. Lead with the symptom, not the cause.

Heads up

  • Anything users should know about (pricing changes, plan limit adjustments, deprecated features, behaviour changes).
