Convertri Updates – 15/08/23

ICYMI, our resident expert Dan hosted a webinar last week all about building a portfolio site. If you’re a designer, writer, creative or just want to show off, a portfolio is the perfect way to promote your projects.

(And it’s also an awesome thing to build for clients, if you create sites for others!)

The webinar replay is now live, and in it you’ll learn:

  • Guiding principles that make great portfolios
  • How to use Actions and Events, carousels and internal links
  • Why pop-ups and video lead gates can deliver results

Meanwhile, why not take a look at the new updates we have for you this fine Tuesday?

FEATURES

Checkout: addresses – we’ve made our checkouts a bit more international. Previously, the State dropdown only appeared if your chosen country was the United States. Now we’ve added state regions for Australia, England, Germany and Canada as well.

BUGS

None this week, but here’s an interesting bug fact: did you know that, at any given moment, there are around 10 quadrillion ants on the planet? They outnumber us by about 1.4 million to 1. The uprising is imminent: they can smell fear. Our days are numbered.

And finally, on this day in history, Macbeth, king of Scots, was killed in battle by Malcolm, eldest son of Duncan I, in the year 1057. His life was immortalised in one of Shakespeare’s most famous plays, in which Macbeth speaks: “Is this a dagger I see before me?” He must have had the image blur set too high, because it definitely was.
