Feature Requests

Hi. In the "old" membership sites it is possible to have multiple videos, PDFs, audiofiles and so on shown as embedded files beneath each other. This feature has been removed from the new community feature 😢 We use this SO much in our courses, because we create a lot of short videos for each lesson. Please add this feature to the new community as well. Thank you Siif Ps. This was originally a dialog in the comments of a closed feature request: https://simplero.canny.io/feature-requests/p/autoplay-next-video-in-lessons

In the process of creating the new membership site experience, Simpleros current strategy is to totally replace the top menu (that can now be chosen in the theme settings) with the left hand side menu. This is a big issue for all the sites created as websites, maybe with a few courses, but where the intent is to give visitors a "website" experience, which in my opinion in most cases includes a top menu. Many users have moved their WP, Wix, Squarespace etc. sites to Simplero because of the ease of the (old) pagebuilder and the simplicity of having everything on one platform. They will now be forced to move those pages back out to another vendor to keep the top menu option, I can't see why Simplero would want that.

I and my clients have some users who love to track their progress through multiple completion and others, that prefer to have the visual guidance of the checkmarks on the lesson overview to mark their progress and easily find todays lesson. Right now we can only favor one type of users, so I would suggest adding the option to mark uncomplete to the multiple completions option, just a wee text below the mark complete button to uncomplete instead, it could even still track the previous completion. And we also really need the remove all completions button requested in several other posts.

Currently in the "new experience" on sites, the Notification icon and dropdown shows notification from ALL sites on ALL accounts a user has access to. The user can then choose to set the settings to this site only, but it defaults back to all each time a new site is visited. Also the manage notifications only takes you to notifications from current site, so the users might accidentally turn off notifications from the wrong site. From a learning perspective this is not a good strategy. Learning environments should be as distraction free as possible, and getting notified about events on other sites and even other Simplero accounts is a huge distraction. So my suggestion is, that the notification icon and dropdown only shows notification for the current website I'm on (same should go for the chat btw). I really don't want my students being attracted to other peoples Simplero accounts while going through my courses or participating in my communities.

It would be great if we could have a place that shows all emails ever sent from our account, whether that be a broadcast, an autoresponder, a payment failed notification - any email generated from our Simplero account - a simple log with Email subject, who/which group it was sent to and when. My client is joining Simplero from WildApricot, and showed me this feature in their current software, it seems like a decent idea and a good way to get a quick overview of automated activity, who's receiving what and when, all in one place. A 'nice to have' :) 🙏

I and many of my clients use membership sites as websites, the sites might have courses as well, but not all of them. To me and my clients having the "Switch to the new experience" option visible for logged in visitors is really not what we want in most cases. Often it's pages with a carefully designed structure and menu, that is messed up with the vertical navigation. Or we simply don't want to confuse our users with two sets of interfaces, and we don't want to use the new one until it's more mature. So what I'm suggesting is that there's a toggle to force the "new experience" off, just as it can be forced on.

This feature https://simplero.canny.io/feature-requests/p/show-number-of-seats-left-on-priceproduct has just been implemented. Unfortunately it's now forced on, so if we restrict number of seats on a price it will always show. This was never my intention with that feature request, because in many cases (most actually I would guess) we don't want to show number of seats left. So please either remove this function until it can have a toggle or give it at toggle now, so when we turn on restricted number of seats we can choose to show number of seats left or not. The function also has a 10 min holding function, which is not good, if you're doing a webinar and the first 10 buyers get an extra bonus, then the first 10 visitors hold op the bonus seats, but maybe only 5 of them actually complete their purchases and then the 5 remaining seats are released again, while other fast buyers ended up not getting the bonus even though they purchased within the 10 first (and yes then I can do manual stuff, but then I can't show people if they're actually purchasing at the bonus price or not. A really nice add on to the vitally important toggle would be to be able to start showing number of seats left, when it goes below a certain treshold, like for the last 3 seats. That would be really awesome.

Please do not force us to have to use the new lesson layout. Maybe you can have 2 lesson layout options (the old and the new) like Kajabi and other competitors do so we can choose whichever fits our needs best. I love the sticky sidebar, pdf embeds, and overall feel of the old lesson layout and don’t want to have to switch to the new lesson layout.

Hi. We have a several products/prices where we use conditions on prices. Example: You are only able to purchase at this coupon price if you have the tag XX But it stopped working (probably when we were switched to the net order form). I have been in contact with support about it since march 5th and it has not been resolved yet and they advised me to create a feature request for it as well. I hope you are able to prioritize this. Thank you in advance Siif

It would be good if we can change the default labels "Modules" and "Lessons" as some of the membership site is not all about teaching lessons or modules. It could be chapter/seasons (modules), episodes/meditations (lessons)
