⭐️ What’s new
You probably want to know why, right?
Over the past 9 months we’ve been working with agencies, marketers, and store owners. What became clear is that everyone has spent a lot of time crafting the look and feel of the stores they manage, and asking them to replace their Shopify theme sections with Context blocks was a BIG ask.
Well the good news is we listened. We went back to the drawing board and developed a way to scan your existing Shopify sections, and instantly turn them into areas of personalization (It works like the Context blocks did, except without any of the effort).
This change is HUUUUUUUUUGE. It means we’ve removed all of the complicated bits, effectively enabling any Shopify store to have personalization capabilities out-of-the-box.
We can’t wait to hear what you think about the simplified personalization experience.
⭐️ What’s new
- Developers can now create custom blocks using the Mustache. This means that any page element can be instantly personalizable.
- You can now control the block height of all blocks from within the theme builder. This then gets reflected dynamically in the variation editor.
- We added a new block type for HTML. This means you can inject HTML based on personalization rules.
🔥 What’s coming
- We’re building out a collections block. This means you’ll be able to deliver personalized collections based on rules.
- We’re adding support for “time” in the date range rule.
2x/w=3840,quality=80)
/w=3840,quality=80)
⭐️ What’s new
- A single Context block (no more Context sections required)
- content creation within the Context app, eliminating the bouncing back and forth between the Context app and the Shopify theme editor
- the ability to share content across your templates (Ex. Banners can be shared across templates)
- an all new Recipe UI to streamline the experience
- a new integrations page, and built our first connection to Klaviyo
- a free plan so you can feel comfortable testing out the product
🔥 What’s coming
- Developers can create custom blocks using the Mustache templating language (We’re almost done)
- We’re adding the ability to add content by block type from a content menu. This means that you can create all of your banners in one place, then move onto all of your image + text blocks. This should really streamline things for power users (We’re very close)
- We're creating new block types. However, if there's a block type that you're looking for. Give us a shout and we'll do our best to get it created for you
- For each personalization recipe, you'll have the ability to preview each template with your selected content variations
📒 Updated documentation
- Default content: All content is now created in the Context app with our new block editor. We needed to provide a way to add default/fallback content for each block. This is the state of your store when no personalization conditions apply.
