We fixed a bug with embedded data mapping for controlled tags fields; sometimes the controlled tags field was not populating with all of the values contained in the embedded fields on upload. This has now been fixed.

When downloading from an embed link, the asset filename will now reflect the latest filename of that asset, not just the original as before.

We've improved the process when creating guest upload links, to more clearly distinguish between the guest upload link name and welcome message.

The experience when navigating the admin area should now be smoother; we've made it easier to exit the view after making changes.

Replying to a "[name] shared assets with you" email will now go to the person that shared the assets, rather than the Dash team.

A "create sub-folder" button was appearing a) in portals and b) for users who didn't have the required permissions to create folders. This is fixed.

Users with capital letters in their emails were not able to log in to the Canva integration. This is now fixed.

We've fixed a bug specific to Firefox that was causing the navigation bar in PDFs to appear in the wrong place.

Trimming videos was leading to a reduction in quality; this is fixed.

Images with a transparent background were losing their transparency if downloaded using a preset size. This is fixed.

Users can now be alerted 30 days before an asset expires, rather than the previous maximum of 14 days.

You can now generate embeddable HTML code for videos; previously this was only available for images.

When sharing PDF files as "View only", it was possible to still download the asset by clicking "Print". We've now disabled this option, to make them truly View-only.

When someone has shared a selection of assets, users can now select from a variety of download options (custom sizes, file type etc) for all shares at once, rather than needing to go into each asset individually.

Newer assets in the upload area now appear first, rather than last.

You can now discard multiple files at once (rather than "all" or one at a time) in the upload area.

Discarding a file in the upload screen was not updating the "selected" count, resulting in odd behaviour such as seeing "2 out of 1" selected in the upload screen. This should now show the correct count.

The date format in Dash was always showing the US format (MM-DD-YYYY). This should now correspond with your browser language, as originally intended.

Sometimes, clicking "Done" too soon on large file uploads would result in the new assets not being uploaded. This is now fixed.

Some errors were showing occasionally when clicking into larger images when uploading, this has been fixed.

The text stating how many days ago an asset was added was corresponding to the users' browser language, even when browsing Dash in English. This has now been set so that this corresponds to the language Dash is displaying in.

We've done significant work on making large asset uploads more stable. If this is something you've run into issues with in the past, feel free to try it out again!

We've been busy working hard on improving the overall browsing experience (release date TBD but it's coming soon!), so that's it for our July improvements!

In Admin > Account > Manage your subscription, the "Primary billing contact" was listed incorrectly for some accounts. This was an issue because it's the email needed to log in to the billing portal. This has now been fixed and you'll be able to reliably use the email listed here to access the billing portal.

When editing multiple assets, asset counts would sometimes be off when selecting and de-selecting assets to edit (e.g. "11 of 7 assets selected"). This has now been fixed.

Forgotten your subdomain? Now you don't need to remember it! You can now use our new login page to jump straight into your account. If your email address is used in multiple Dash accounts, we'll even show you a list to pick from.

New fields now sort alphabetically by default.

You can now add line breaks to your portal welcome message.

We've improved the visibility of long folder paths.

Improved the performance when uploading more than 500 assets.

We've improved upload speeds. Sometimes uploads would 'hang' with a "preparing your assets" message - that should now be a thing of the past!

Checklists and drop-down filter values were not showing the 🚫 symbol when negated.

Folders weren't showing if a user had contributor access to only a single parent folder.

Smart filters! Filters that contain no results will now be moved to a hidden section at the bottom of the filters panel, so you only see filters that will actually do something 🙂

We've extended the inactive session logout duration from 24 hours to 7 days. So long as you log in to Dash at least once in a 7 day period, you'll stay logged in.

We've added a mandatory session expiry at 90 days. All users will be required to re-login again after this time, regardless of last login.

Added a tooltip showing the specific time a past version was uploaded (thanks Julie for the suggestion!)
