A new section, trading → discount codes, lets you define codes with various properties, like value and validity dates. You can then offer a box in forms which take payment, for members or customers to obtain that discount. The discount codes section also summarises which codes have been used, when and who by.
Initially, you can use these codes with the join form. We’ll extend this to other forms such as shopping (merchandise) and booking (for events) in future. Read More…
The contact form type, which allows people to sign up as contacts, can now request a phone number. Tick the relevant box in the form options to include it. Choose either optional (they don’t have to provide it) or required (they must put at least something in the box). Read More…
In future, Cameo will handle its own incoming email directly (instead of checking a separate mailbox every so often). New addresses look like this: destination@to.cameo.example.com
To introduce this in a controlled way, we need to change the addresses you send to. The old addresses will continue to work for the next few weeks, but please start using the new addresses now. Read More…
For added security, we now encrypt backups during creation. The backup file names now indicate the type and sequence of the backup. Read More…
A new section, member tasks → subject access request, provides automation for gathering together data to fulfil a GDPR subject access request. We keep the data as a formal record of the request. Read More…
Remember Me on login now remembers each computer/browser you use independently. It also no longer stops remembering you if you change networks, provided the IP address is one we have seen before. (If you already had remember me turned on, I’m afraid this change means you will have to log in next time, but you should then find it stays on more).
If you lose access to your two-step verification (aka two factor authentication, or 2FA) app, Cameo now offers two alternative methods for the second verification.
If you log in from an IP address we have not seen before, Cameo now sends you an email to let you know (so if it wasn’t you, we can do something about it). Read More…
A new button for templates lets you send a test email to an address other than your own. You could use this in conjunction with the spam checking service at www.mail-tester.com to check your email for potential spam triggers. Read More…
When you use WebDAV in a scanner app to upload files as member attachments in Cameo, you now select the member to attach to. This also includes gift aid declaration evidence and photo id attachments. Similarly, you now select the document number to attach to when uploading invoice, purchase order or quotation attachments. Read More…
Cameo now provides a plugin for version 5 or later of WordPress to embed a form using WordPress’s block editor. This supersedes the use of shortcodes. Read More…
