New release, new features. On to the next one!

Everything went as planned and a number of important new features were released on October 18th. These included multi-level pages, dashboard, getting started checklist, spellchecker, e-mail  members feature - and many minor tweaks.

We have also totally redesigned our product tour. Now instead of one page with a few  screenshots we have created a separate section for each important area of functionality.

Each section includes several screenshots and provides commentary on key functions.

However, we have a long list of ideas (and special thanks to people providing feedback and requests!) on how to make Wild Apricot even better. So we jumped into our next release right away.

One important feature we are working on is member-only web pages. Many organizations are finding that providing special content to members (as a membership benefit) is a good way to keep people involved outside of occasional meetings and for them to see more value in membership.

We are happy to oblige - expect to see member-only webpages in our next release:
