Overview

We are excited to announce that you now have the ability to change the profile image of your GBP chat widget. Until this release, we were restricted to using a static image that was applicable for accounts integrated with us. With this update, you can change the logo to better align with your business preference!

How to Change the Profile Picture for the Chat Widget:

  • Go to settings and proceed to the 'Integrations' section.
  • Select 'Google My Business' and navigate to the 'Change Settings' option.
  • In the settings menu, locate the 'Profile Image' section.
  • Choose your desired image and click the 'Update' CTA.
  • Visit your business on Google to verify the updated profile image.

Note

Upon changing the image and submitting it, an email is sent to the Google support team requesting the update of the image on their end. The turnaround time (TAT) for updating the image is between 24 to 48 hours.

Additionally, we have added an option to seamlessly visit your Google Business Profile from the integration page.

Any web pages on the internet can be prone to vulnerabilities and can be subjected to various attacks, which can be blocked using headers sent to the browser when the page is loaded and thus safeguarding malicious activities by 3rd parties.

Overview

A watermark is a visible, often translucent, design or text superimposed onto a digital image or document.

🤩 Benefits of Watermark

Watermarking posts on social media serves several purposes, and individuals or businesses may have different reasons for using watermarks. Here are some common reasons:

  • Ownership and Copyright Protection: Watermarks can be used to assert ownership and protect the copyright of the content.
  • By including a watermark with a username, logo, or other identifying information, it becomes more difficult for others to claim the content as their own.
  • Placing a logo or a brand name on images helps in building brand recognition. This can be particularly important for marketing and establishing a consistent online presence.
  • Promotion and Marketing: Watermarks can be used strategically for promotional purposes. For example, a watermark might include a website URL, social media handle, or a hashtag related to a campaign, directing viewers to the creator's online presence or a specific promotion.

How to create a Watermark in Social Planner?

😍How to create a Watermark in Social Planner?

  • 1. Go to Marketing > Social Planner
  • 2. Click on "settings"
  • 3. Click on the watermark tab

Summary

In this release, we are excited to introduce enhancements to calendar availability settings. Users now have greater flexibility with the ability to indicate 24-hour availability from 12:00 am to 12:00 am.

What's New?

  • 24-Hour Availability: You can now set your availability from 12:00 am to 12:00 am, indicating continuous availability for a full 24-hour period.
  • Extended End Time: End times can now be set to 12:00 am with any other start time. Previously, the end time was restricted to 11:55 pm, which could lead to the last slot not being displayed. With this enhancement, for a calendar duration of 15 minutes and 15-minute intervals, the last available slot will now be correctly shown as 11:45 pm, ensuring users do not miss out on desired appointments.

Important Note:

Setting identical start and end times for other hours, such as 8:00 am to 8:00 am, will not be allowed. In such cases, for example, users should set availability for the period from 8:00 am to 12:00 am on Mondays and from 12:00 am to 8:00 am on Tuesdays.

How to Use?
