                    • Countless minor UI/UX refinements and bug fixes.
                      October 2, 2021

                      What's new

                      We have released a major UI/UX update. This update is an overhaul of the user interface and is supposed to make many things more intuitive.

                      Some of the changes are:

                      • We have listened to the feedback we have received since our update in January 2021, and the Sidebar is now not always visible but can be opened by clicking on the Info button.
                      • The breadcrumb is now a dropdown menu that ensures better support for complex folder structures.
                      • Bulk file actions are now located in connection with the Select files option.
                      • All icons have been updated to Google Materials icons.

                      Notice: Our Knowledge Base does not yet fully reflect the changes in this update, but all support pages will be updated within a few days.

                      Bug Fixes

                      • Apostrophes (and most other special characters) in Tags are now embedded correctly.
                      • Logo clicks now work from the search results page.
                      • Links in invite and password reset emails now link to the user's home (root) folder.
                      • Only the Theme ID is now stored in the user's local storage. This is to avoid issues with theme edits not being visible for the user making the edits.

                        What's new

                        • Log in to your home folder. We thought it was smart that users were logged into the folder they logged out from. We were wrong, and this has caused some confusion from users that couldn't comprehend why they sometimes were logged into an "arbitrary" subfolder. We have therefore changed the procedure so that users are always logged into their home folder (unless you access it through a direct link to a file or folder).

                        Bug Fixes

                        • You can now again change folder permissions from the folder permission pop-up window.
                        • Closing a page takes you now back to the folder you came from.
                        • Custom thumbnails are now also visible on the search results page.
                        • Multiple files can be removed from Collections.
                        • Log in page with centered logo can no longer be scrolled to the left.
                        • Administrators can now be invited even if they have no folder permissions.
                        • Fixed a minor styling issue in the main menu, so that the storage warnings are now always fixed to the bottom.
                        • Files with filenames containing an apostrophe ( ' ) can now be removed from Collections (thanks for your patience, Chris).
                          May 1, 2021

                          What's new

                          • Improved Log Search. You can now use double quotes ("") to find phrases or words containing dots (.) or hyphens (-) e.g. "blue-sky.jpg".

                          Bug Fixes

                          • You will no longer be able to send an invite to a user if the user is Locked or has no folder permissions.
                          • To prevent Administrators from being locked out of their accounts, they will now get a warning when trying to remove their Administrator rights.
                          • Fixed a minor problem with png files containing only one tag.
                            March 14, 2021

                            What's new

                            • We have updated our integration to Letsencrypt so that custom domain changes should be propagated faster.

                            Bug Fixes

                            • Logo click now works for all users. Click on the logo in the header to navigate to the theme root folder.
                            • Renaming files improvement. You will now receive an error message when trying to rename a file if there is already another file in the same folder with the same name.
                              March 1, 2021

                              What's new

                              Change of Billing solution - We have switched over to using Stripe as our preferred payment and invoicing platform. Stripe is built for SaaS businesses like Filecamp and will give us a more streamlined, futureproof, and secure payment solution.

                              Notice: Some of our old (and most loyal) customers were still paying the prices we introduced when we launched Filecamp back in 2010. Starting from March 1, 2021, all customers will be paying the prices we have been listing on our pricing page since 2018. We hope that you will appreciate the extended time you had on the reduced rates, and hope for your understanding.

                              To simplify things we have also stopped support for 6 months invoicing and for billing in other currencies. All customers are now paying in USD, either monthly (by Credit Card) or yearly (by Credit Card, bank transfer, or PayPal).

                              We will continue to make improvements to our billing section over the next 1-2 weeks.

                                • You can now open comments by clicking on the comments icon in the sidebar, also from the folder view.
                                  February 7, 2021

                                  • Upload from mobile works again.
                                  • The "No Label" label is now hidden from all files and folders if Label change is not allowed on the folder.
                                  • Apostrophes in folder names could cause metadata not to be correctly embedded into the files.
                                  • Upload of background image in Admin > Themes could fail when the color selector was clicked just before.
                                  • An error page is now shown to users trying to access from an outdated browser e.g. IE11.

                                    Major User Interface update - We have listened to the feedback we received since our last large update two years ago. We have now made it easier and more intuitive to select items and perform bulk actions. We hope you will like it (when you have got used to it). 

                                    What's new

                                    • You can now bulk select files using the Select all option or by using keyboard shortcuts. This means that you have to double click to open files and folders, (like on any mac/pc) or click on the file / folder name in the gallery view. 
                                    • The Sidebar is visible all the time making it easier for new users to find the file/folder information.
                                    • Commenting and Notifications settings have been moved from the top navigation bar to the Sidebar.

                                    You can see a quick overview of the interface changes here

                                    This update hasn't any new features and the things you have done before are still doable. But this UI update was an important step so that we can continue refining Filecamp and developing new cool features.

                                    All accounts have been updated and we will continue to refine the User Interface over the next weeks.

                                    We promise that it will all be good, so please have a little patience 🙏
