Sneak Peek: COMING SPRING 2025 – NEW Page builder ✨
Sneak peek Our new Page builder is launching in Spring 2025, making it easier than ever to create stunning and professional pages. Designed from the ground up based on customer feedback, the new Page builder is made to be integrated with the Clipsource ecosystem, giving you a new way to create, with more flexibility, and more ways to showcase your content. With intuitive components, you can browse and add content directly from your Posts, Mediabank and Program Catalog, ensuring your pages always have the latest content, staying ever fresh and dynamic. Stay tuned for the launch and get ready to build better pages! Got questions? We have your back at support@clipsource.com Other recent tweaks and bug fixes We’re continuously refining the platform to improve your experience. Here are some of the latest fixes and enhancements: We’ve removed the forced center alignment of preamble text in post, event, and schedule change notifications. Now, the text will follow the alignment setting defined in the admin panel, just like the body text. Fixed an issue where removed contacts remained in the pending access list with an accepted/denied status, preventing them from reapplying. Now, they will be fully removed from the system. - The Clipsource Team
NOT a Black Friday Email, rather a product update
Dear Customers, Over the past few months, we have been working intensively to develop a new search function to make your work more efficient. With the new search function, finding the right content is now easier and faster than before. The first place where this is being implemented is the Program Catalog for admins. When you log in to the Program Catalog, you will see that the homepage has been replaced with a new search-focused page. Where possible, we also provide search suggestions to help you find content even faster. So, how does the new search work? Unified search: You can now find all programme content in a single search, without needing to navigate through different categories. Everything is now in one place, making it more efficient and easy. Search suggestions: As you type, you will now receive suggestions that help you find what you are looking for faster. Sorted tabs: By default, all results are displayed, but you can also choose to view only, for example, series or movies in specific tabs, making it easier to quickly focus on the content you are interested in. Improved matching: Forgot the exact title? No problem. Our new search function helps you find a programme regardless of spelling or variations like 'The Program' or 'Program, The'. Comprehensive search: Our search covers titles, descriptions and cast information ensuring nothing is missed. ID search: Find content by searching for series, season, episode, or media IDs. For now, you can still use the old search function available under each programme tab, but the new search function provides faster and more comprehensive results, potentially saving you valuable time and making your work smoother. We would greatly appreciate it if you could try the new feature and let us know what you think. If you have any feedback, don't hesitate to reach out! - The Clipsource Team
Product updates: Shared collections, UI updates and more...
Dear Customers, Lately, our attention has been on some significant system upgrades, which are still ongoing. However, we’ve got a few exciting updates that we'd like to share with you. Here’s some new stuff!Share Mediabank collections within your organisation We're excited to share an update for our Mediabank module, designed to make media management even more seamless and efficient—whether you're new to Mediabank or a long-time user. Mediabank is a powerful tool that allows you to upload, manage, and share your media files effectively, organised using two main structures: Workspaces: You can create both public and private workspaces to organise your media, giving you full control over how your files are shared. Collections: Within each workspace, you can create collections (folders) for uploading files. Collections can be unpublished, publicly available, or restricted to logged-in users. You can also create nested sub-collections, providing you with greater flexibility in structuring your content. With our latest update, users who are part of an organisation can now share collections with one or more other companies within the same organisation. When a collection is shared, it appears in a new area of the Mediabank called the Inbox. The Inbox lists shared collections, provides details about who shared them, and includes a feature to move the collection from the Inbox to a relevant workspace within the receiving customer’s Mediabank. This new feature helps streamline your workflow, avoiding duplicate efforts in uploading and managing media files. It's especially helpful for different companies within an organisation that need to publish or share the same or similar collections with their respective audiences. Whether you're already familiar with Mediabank or just getting started, this update is here to make your media sharing process smoother and more collaborative. Schedule design update We've also refreshed the look of Schedules in Media Center, bringing a sleek new design to enhance your experience. The updates include: A more spacious layout, making it easier to get an overview of the content. Larger images from the programmes, providing a richer visual experience. Full-page width utilisation, ensuring the content doesn’t feel cramped. One notable change is that the previous area used for schedule changes has now been replaced with a button at the top of the page. This new design makes navigating and managing schedules more intuitive, allowing you to focus more on the content that matters most. Email verification improvements We have improved the way our system handles imported contact lists from CSV files or copy-paste operations. Previously, once you imported a contact list, you would receive an email notification if the import completed with errors, highlighting incorrect email addresses. With our latest update, we're taking this a step further. Now, when an import finishes, you will not only be notified of errors but will also receive more detailed information on what went wrong—whether it's an invalid format or the presence of unsupported characters in the email address. This enhancement makes it much easier to correct issues and update your contact lists accordingly, saving you time and reducing the hassle of manually tracking down the issues. These improvements are designed to help you maintain clean, accurate contact lists with less effort, ensuring that your communications reach their intended recipients smoothly and effectively. Enhanced validation for schedules We've also made an improvement to the validation process for TV schedules imported to the Schedules module. Previously, our logic for detecting gaps or overlaps between events was not always sufficient, especially when it came to identifying events with identical start and end times. With this latest update, we've refined the validation logic to explicitly highlight events that share the same start and end times. Combined with our recent improvement that made these validations channel-specific rather than generic, this enhancement results in a more precise and reliable scheduling experience. These improvements will help you reduce errors, avoid scheduling conflicts, and ensure that your TV schedules are accurate and consistent, making management simpler and more effective. Some other minor tweaks and bug fixes We have adjusted the logos in Media Center so that Google and other search crawlers display the correct logos in their search results. We are continuing to gradually update our admin UI to make it more attractive and easier to use, including new icons and adjusted lists. We have fixed a bug that prevented the deletion of archived content in Mediabank. - The Clipsource Team
