To help others find your stories, we’ve implemented a sitemap for stories so they will get indexed into Google Search.
We’ve also simplified the look and feel of the UI a bit by changing how we apply colors. We hope that this helps reduce the visual noise on the screen.
We also added a feature to allow users to add a “hero” video into stories:
This can help your audience get an overview of your trip with a short intro video or even as the main video for your trip.
Features and Updates
- Changed how the color scheme is applied; only icons and chips will get the colors applied instead of the whole item.
- Changed how confirmed places are represented (small badge) instead of an entirely different color.
- Changed how the user session is persisted so users should see less login prompts.
- Added feature to add “hero” YouTube video into stories.
- Added sitemap.xml for stories so they are indexed into Google.
Pipeline
- Fix issue with re-drawing notes when adding, editing, or deleting
- Add option to reorder notes
- Change stories to show different note types in different tabs
- Add general empty bucket for entering places that don’t have assigned days
- More UX cleanup
We’d love to have your feedback if you have ideas!
