Recent ShortStack upgrades

Follow-up and autoresponder emails now have a new State/Province filter. When enabled, you can choose to include or exclude entries where the State/Province value is in the list of values you can enter. Follow-up emails now have access to the same Instant Win filter that was previously made available to autoresponders. Follow-up emails also have a new setting that will allow you to include duplicate entries. The default behavior is to exclude duplicates, which is great when you only want to target a specific email only one time; but when you want to target each entry regardless of if it’s a dupe or not, this setting solves that problem.

We’ve added an option for the Form Container Widget to allow collecting an entry’s full (non-anonymized) IP address. This is only for users/campaigns that are not obligated to fulfill GDPR requirements. Since this feature itself is not GDPR-compliant, ShortStack will display a warning when the setting is enabled. This setting can be found in the Advanced tab, and is available for folks on Brand or Enterprise plans.

You can now filter entries using one or more entry labels in the Entry Display Widget. This makes it very easy to use as a “Winner Widget” for displaying your contest winners!

We now have an address lookup feature, courtesy of Google Maps! It does require the Entry Profiles feature, meaning that you’ll need to be on an Pro Plan or higher to have access. This is something that requires an API key, which you would need to purchase from Google – then you’d just add the key when configuring the integration in your Form Container.

The humble autoresponder email now has a few new settings! There is a new checkbox on the Company Profile step of the wizard for disabling the CAN-SPAM “Unsubscribe” footer – this is only available if you’re on the Enterprise Plan. Available to everyone are new filters for autoresponders; these are accessible in the Summary step of the wizard. These include the abilities to exclude repeat entries and include only instant winners.

The List type of custom field now has a new layout option: Text. This displays the field as a regular input field – not a drop-down. The input provided by the entrant must match a value in your list, or they’ll get an error message (and yes, the message is able to be customized).
