Release Notes

Your one stop shop for all new features, updates, and bug fixes in NationBuilder!

Added ability to translate unsubscribe subject line into 24 languages, removed membership sort & added some new things to V2 Donations

New

Unsubscribe pages are now available in more languages. This also includes the subject line for password reset emails. You can make the change in website > settings >

 

Update

Removed the ability to sort by 'Membership started at' in various drop downs (since it did not work as expected) 

New

You can now see the fees associated with your NationBuilder Payment Processor in settings > payment processors AND your donation page will say 'Billing Address' to make it clear to your donors that that's the address you are looking for. 

Changes to Vote Pledge Page, Deprecating Klout & shared lists and filters, Update to Democracy Engine TOS, Fix to quick search & household exports

Update

Now, when a person takes action on a Vote Pledge page, it will update the page’s vote pledge counter accordingly — without altering their support level (1-5 score).

Previously, when a person submitted or changed a vote pledge, this would update their support level, and corresponding support status — overwriting any support level data they may have had in your nation.

Update

Since Klout is no longer a thing, we've removed it from NationBuilder. You will no longer see Klout on a broadcaster, profile or filter. 

Update

We have removed the ability to share lists and filters.

 

Fix

We added Democracy Engine's terms of service to the back end so that users cannot edit this third party TOS. 

Fix

When searching for a person in quick search if they didn't have a photo the default icon was a building, it would be better if it was a person, so now it's a person!

Fix

When exporting households from a list the export will now only include signups on that list.

 

NationBuilder integrated payment processing is now available in Canada

Update

NationBuilder's integrated payment processing is now available to customers in the Great White North (aka Canada)!

Fix

V2 donation pages now allow you to put someone on a path AND a step when they donate! 

Added the ability to add consent forms to action pages and removed "Add everyone to list" from import screens

New

We've made it easier to gather and manage consent, as you can now add consent forms to any action page! Get your consent on!

Update

In relation to the feature above, we've added the ability to remove email/text opt in checkboxes from all pages.

Update

We've removed the "Add everyone to list" feature from import screens, this will allow the import tools to run much faster. You can still create lists by applying a tag from the import and adding everyone to a list afterward, or running a filter for imported (specific file) if your import didn't update anyone.

 

 

Analytics banner and updates to profile deletion

New

We've released a new feature to allow you to set up an analytics/cookie consent banner if you're using analytics tools (Google Analytics or Chartbeat) on your NationBuilder site! 

Update

We've added some new features around deleting and permanently deleting profiles from NationBuilder, click here for the nitty gritty!

We've added a couple more tools to our advanced privacy toolbox! You can now log a digital will on profiles, as well as download a person's data from their profile!

Update

We've added new fields under Batch update > Clear Field. Now you don't need to be a magician to make things disappear!

Update

We've updated consent filters to make it easier to use the data you've collected. Hallelujah!

Batch update consent and email/content scheduling for all nations

Update

You can now use lists to batch update consent as part of our rollout of new tools around advanced privacy. *Does the cabbage patch* (Wait, is that even still a thing?)

 

Update

Email and content scheduling is available for all nations! Schedule to your heart's content!

Fixed missing pages on tracking code list

Fix

Under Finances > Tracking codes, there is a column for 'Pages,' which was displaying blank at all times, even when the tracking codes were associated with pages. This is no longer the case! 

New advanced privacy tools

New

We take data privacy very seriously, and we have created some new advanced privacy tools that you can use in addition to your existing ability to collect consent from your users. So, now you can turn on advanced privacy to create consents and create/send consent forms! *Mic Drop*

Which will look similar to this to your supporters:

Updated the subnav in the People section

Update

We've updated the subnavigation in the People section to give you quick click access Point people, Imports, Exports and Memberships. Woot!

Added additional information to the delete profile confirmation box

Update

We've added additional information to the "Are you sure you want to delete XX?" confirmation box to warn control panel users of exactly what information will be removed or anonymized in your Nation if you choose to remove the profile. Now you know exactly what you're doing when you press that delete button! 😮

Updated max results per page for the API

Update 

An update has been made to our API to restrict the maximum number of donation results per page to 100.
