Archive for the ‘Signup Panel’ Category

You may have noticed that when a user tries to subscribe with the signup panel and fails three times, it shows the following message:

Previously, a user would have to contact us with their phone number and we’d reset their panel so they could try again.

We’ve changed the panel so that it automatically resets after 15 minutes of being in the “Oops!” state. Now users will be able to try re-subscribing without our intervention.

I’ll be updating the panel copy shortly and also fixing that glaring typo! Can you find it?

Hey Zeep Developers! We just released the updated version of the signup panel. You don’t need to make any changes to your implementation.

The new panel

So, what’s different?

1. Goodbye, country dropdown

We got rid of the country dropdown since we only support the US. This makes the panel easier to use and has the added benefit of making it load a lot faster.

2. A narrow version

In case you want to stick the panel in a sidebar or somewhere narrow, I made some tweaks to accommodate that. Adding a &width=narrow parameter to the iframe source URL will load an additional stylesheet that makes the panel display correctly when it’s in a narrow space. The screenshot there fits in a 200px space.

You’ll have to tweak the height and width of the iframe depending on the exact space.

Happy Zeeping!
