Updates and improvements shipped in Superthread in Q1 2024 and second half of 2023 🚀

Feb 23, 2024

Features

Page templates (beta) – you can now create reusable templates for pages. Go to Settings > Templates > Pages to create your first template. Currently, the only way to apply a template is when creating a page through the ‘New page’ button in the sidebar. We plan to add more ways very soon.

Improvements

Real time syncing when a space is deleted – your sidebar will now update automatically when somebody deletes a Space (previously you would need to refresh).
When choosing a template to apply, if the dropdown of templates is empty, we now display a link to the Settings page where you can create one.
Board stats explanations – hidden in the info sidebar of a board we have some simple stats showing you how cards are progressing. We now show tooltips to help you interpret these numbers.
We’ve added some extra text to explain how email notifications work.
We’ve tightened up the padding between card descriptions and card titles.

Fixes

On mobile, we’ve removed the large gap from the top of Settings pages.
We fixed a bug where the hover state for a button in the header would persist when opening a different menu in the app.
We’ve removed the ‘People with access’ section from the ‘Info’ sidebar of a page. Access to a page is defined by the space the page is located in and nothing else.

Feb 16, 2024

Improvements

Text alignment options in pages – you can now left, centre, or right align text in pages.
In the sidebar and search results, boards will now display the appropriate icon for each layout you’ve chosen for them (board, list, or timeline).
In the Inbox, when viewing a notification about a card, we now show the card title in the header so that you can see which card you are viewing even when scrolled to a comment.
The ‘Open board’ button in the homepage of a space has been moved to left to make it slightly easier to click on.

Fixes

When linking to a comment thread in a page, the thread will now scroll to the correct position of the comment.
Cards that are moved into a board that ‘group-by’ is enabled for will now show up in their correct grouping.
Fixed an issue where card titles were hidden in the timeline layout when at its default width.
Navigating to a favourited board whilst using timeline layout no longer causes the new and old board to alternate whilst it loads.
The board layout option for ‘Hide empty groups’ is now only applied to the current board you are viewing, not all boards.
We’ve removed the inaccurate version history feature from pages.
Fixed some hover states in boards where list names and icons would look interactive when ‘group-by’ is applied.
Fix a bug where opening the 3 dot menu in the header of space would break if you opened the same menu from within the sidebar at the same time.

Feb 9, 2024

Improvements

Now anybody can resolve a comment thread. Previously only the person who created the thread could do this. Resolving a thread will notify its participants.

Tweaked the title and icon in the invite modal to make it clearer you are inviting people to the workspace.

We display a warning banner to users who have a resource open from a space that has been deleted.

Fixes

Feb 2, 2024

Features

Email digests – receive a daily email summary of unread notifications. You can choose what time they’re sent, and what notifications to include from Settings > Account > Notifications. Digests are only sent once a day and exclude weekends.
Board layouts – when creating a board, you can now choose a default layout (Board, List, or Timeline). Users can still change the layout at any time, but they’ll see the ‘default’ if they haven’t set their own preference. You can update the default layout for an existing board by going to its ‘Board Settings’.
Sort cards in ‘My work’ – use the ‘Layout’ dropdown to change the sort order of cards in the ‘My work’ view.

Sort-by in Views – use the new ‘layout’ dropdown in Views to change the sort order of Cards.

Improvements

All spaces are now treated as equal – we’ve simplified Space management by removing the concept of a ‘default space’.

Features

Delete Spaces – you can now tidy up your workspace by deleting unused spaces. Deleting a space is a destructive action that will delete any boards, cards, and pages contained in it. Deletion is permanent and cannot be undone. Only workspace Admins or the team member who originally created a space can perform this action. You’ll find the delete option in the 3 dot menu for each space and in the Manage spaces page.

Improvements

We’ve added a confirmation modal when deleting a View.
