Big changes coming to Ninja Forms, sending new leads personalized video content, how to turn your website into a community forum, and more inside!

Välkommen! Welcome to the Ninja Forms newsletter! It's been a busy couple weeks around the WP Ninjas offices, with a number of new updates being released addressing issues and making general quality-of-life improvements to existing features. If you haven't visited Plugins in your dashboard for a while to check for updates, get to it already! :) ... Read on for more info on changes we're making to our product fields, the introduction of a Donation field, and other tweaks in the works! On the new extension front, there's a pretty high probability that, two weeks from now when our next newsletter hits your inboxes, we'll have added Table Editor as our newest 3.0 compatible extension upgrade! There are a few others I'm almost scared to mention because I don't want to jinx us! I will say that Stuart Sequeira, our phenomenal collaborating developer behind popular CRM extensions like SalesForce and Capsule CRM, is putting the finishing touches on quite a few of his extensions. You'll just have to stay tuned and see, but there are exciting new launches just over the horizon! As far as new content goes this time around, we're bringing you a new article on turning form submission data into a uniquely tailored video response that you can send to anyone who submits a given form. It's a fun, attention grabbing way to reach out to new leads and a sure-fire method to plant your company firmly in the memory of a potential customer. All you'll need is our Zapier extension and a free account with Sezion, the folks behind the dynamically personalized videos themselves. Check it out, it's very neat and almost certainly something new to many of the people that visit your websites! Find our Sezion story and featured add-on of the week below, and have an outstanding next couple weeks! What's New with Ninja Forms --------------------------------------------------------------- The last couple weeks have been busy with updates addressing quality-of-life improvements and bug-squashing. If you're not up to speed on updates yet, we're currently on 3.0.27, and you should be too! Here are some of the changes we've made over the last several updates: - Field data should populate properly in all submission exports. (3.0.27) - Email errors upon form submission should be clearer. (3.0.26) - Fixed a compatibility bug with other plugins that use the WP List Table. (3.0.26) - Increasing the performance of submissions and form builder loading. (3.0.25) - Improved compatibility with popular caching plugins. (3.0.25) - Field tags should now properly populate in calculation merge tags. (3.0.25) - Submission exports should now always order properly. (3.0.25) - Fixed a bug with submissions exporting non-Ninja Forms data. (3.0.25) - Importing forms with non-UTF8 characters should now import properly. (3.0.25) - Fixed a bug with converting forms from 2.9.x to 3.0. (3.0.25) So that's where we've been, and here's where we're heading. Changes and new additions to your Commerce Fields are coming soon! The newest developer to join our team, known only as the mysterious K.R. (he's so new he doesn't have his own profile page on wpninjas.com yet, sorry), has been tasked with improving our Commerce Field functionality. Here's a preview of what's in the works for a future release: - A more robust Product field. We're adding options to the product field that will allow you to differentiate and price multiple versions of the same product. For example, you'll soon be able to offer a shirt in different sizes and at different prices for each size, all from the same Product field. Quantities will also be more intuitively associated with their respective Product field on the backend for your clarity and convenience. - Introducing the Donation field! You've been asking for it, and we're delivering! You'll soon have a Donation field that will allow users to input a payment amount of their choice. - Introducing the Tax field! Rarely are taxes a cause for celebration, but it might just elicit some happiness from a number of you in this case. You'll soon have a Tax field that will auto-identify all other Commerce fields on your form, calculate tax for those values at a rate set by you, and add that value to the Total field of your form. Told you we've been busy! Let's turn now to our newest content on the Ninja Forms blog.
