Release Notes - Kartra

Improvements

  • Email Builder: We’ve made several updates to enhance your email creation experience:
    • The subject line, preview text, and contact variables are now front and center in the builder layout, making them easier to access and edit.
      Add an email subject from the primary canvas
    • A/B Testing setup has been improved, allowing you to create and compare multiple message versions for emails and SMS with a smoother experience.
      Add a new version to set up A/B testing
    • Updated button text and instructional language make setting up new emails more intuitive. (11759, 11758)
  • Sequence SMS: SMS step previews have been refined so the entire message displays, allowing you to review every detail without relaunching the editor. (12228)
  • General UI Enhancements: Various tooltip and breadcrumb improvements have been made across the account to streamline usability, helping you better understand your options and navigation.

Fixes

  • Email & SMS: The {first_name} variable is now pre-loaded correctly in plain text templates for both email and SMS, ensuring accurate personalization. (12211)
  • Contact Import: We’ve polished the contact import process, fixing issues where custom-named imports occasionally reset to the default and automations couldn’t be added. (12050, 12187)
    • Did you know? Kartra has a brand new contact import dashboard! Now, when you import contacts from another system, you can save progress as a draft, use reusable field-mapping templates, and track your import status and history—all in one dedicated area. See imports in your account. 
  • Recycle Bin: Search and filtering in the Recycle Bin are now more accurate, so your results always match what you’re looking for. (12080, 12077, 12075)
  • Campaign Filters: Work without interruptions! We fixed an issue where the campaign asset filter dropdown would close prematurely when selecting multiple asset types quickly. (12008)
  • Helpdesk Tickets: We’ve removed an unnecessary “Edit” button from ticket subjects, as ticket subjects are not editable. (11997)
