All right, welcome.
This is an update for July 3rd,
right before our holiday weekend here,
and just wanted to give you a quick update on
version 0.10.1 that we just released.
Actually, a couple of days ago,
it took me a second to get this video out,
but wanted to get it to you before the holiday weekend here.
We have two big updates.
One is we have a brand new tribe social website,
so I'm going to show you that,
and then we also have a new topic feature,
which has been requested by a few of our clients,
and so I'll show you how both of those are working.
So first off,
we're very excited to finally have
a brand new tribe social site.
This is something that we've been needing
for many, many months, actually,
and the other one, if you had ever gone to it,
was very out of date,
and so we're much more up to date.
I want to kind of show you,
there's a couple little overviews
of kind of what the concept of tribe is about.
The main thing I want to show you here
is this is kind of our new goal,
is we want to create a social learning hub for your tribe.
That is kind of our go-to mission statement
for the next while,
and this is kind of what we originally built tribe for,
was to try to replace
that kind of private Facebook group type experience
where you can have actual life-changing mentoring,
discipleship, and kind of education happening online
in a community,
but then also creating
kind of a no-distraction platform as well,
so that's kind of our new vision there.
I just wanted to highlight that,
and then I'll show you a couple cool pages here.
We have an integrations page
where you can see all the different integrations
and when those were integrated,
so we're creating kind of a timeline
for you guys to track the progress, right,
because every few weeks, every month or so,
we push out a new update,
and if there's integrations that you want to see,
let us know.
Shoot us an email, help at tribesocial.io.
We would love to hear any requests.
For example, we had Searchy,
a request that came in for that on a Friday,
and I think by Monday morning we had that working.
Same for Wistia.
I think we did that in an afternoon,
so these are very quick to integrate,
and we're happy to hear your feedback
and take your suggestions.
You can always comment below,
either on YouTube or Facebook,
wherever you're watching this,
and just let us know as well
if you have any requests or suggestions for this.
Features are just all the different features
that have been coming out.
You can see this Topics feature
we'll talk about in a second
has just come out a few days ago,
and then you can kind of see our timeline.
We have new chat.
We have the sign-in Facebook.
We have this article content type,
so you can kind of see what's new very quickly.
All the newest stuff will be at the top,
and I've yet to create a picture, apparently,
for that one, but that's where that would go.
So if you want to just see what's going on
and what's new in Tribe,
this is a great way to do that,
and then we have a summary here
of just everything that's going on,
so if I click into this,
you can see this is the update we're talking about today.
It's 0.10.1, and we highlight it as
here's all the new features.
Here are the improvements we've made,
so these are kind of new things that didn't exist before.
Improvements are just things that were there,
but we made it a little bit more intuitive,
and then fixes are just any bugs that we found,
and not always the case,
but generally put little things in there as well,
so if you go back a page,
let me potentially go to a bigger group,
but you can see here we had little quirky things
that popped up.
We would do those fixes.
There's some issues with ads not displaying correctly,
so you can just see if you're waiting
for a specific version of the app
or you're waiting for a bug to be fixed or something,
this is a great way as well.
You can see pretty consistently
we're pushing out updates at least monthly.
We're probably gonna move to every two weeks,
but it kind of flexes as we have bigger and smaller features,
but this lets you track the whole journey of Tribe
from the beginning to some of our first early events
all the way to where we are today, so kind of cool,
and then very excited about this.
We have a support tab,
so I know a lot of people are trying to figure out
how do I do specific things on Tribe?
We have four articles that are being written
by me and our team to help you understand how to use Tribe,
so if you click into one of these,
they have videos, sometimes text kind of breakdowns.
I know we get requests like how to connect a custom domain.
For example, there's a workflow on how to do that,
and we are adding a lot to this.
Our goal is to have 30, 40 of these
over the next few months,
just different guides and tutorials
and kind of help documents,
so this is a great place, tribesocial.io/.support
to check that out, and that is really pretty simple.
I will also point out this little help button,
and we actually released this.
into the dashboard in Tribe.
So if you're on the website or you're signed in as an admin,
you can get to this and just ask our team a question.
This goes right to us.
We typically reply within the same day or the next day
and we'll get your questions answered.
And so that is the first thing, brand new website.
And then second of all, I wanna show you
this new topics feature that was a request
from one of our clients here.
And I think this is gonna be useful for a lot of people.
So I thought I'd take some time to show it
and we'll show you how this works.
So quick little demo site here.
I'm gonna go to dashboard.
You'll notice there's a new topics option here.
And what this lets us do is create a brand new topic.
So I'll say this is my,
and my keyboard just stopped working.
There we go.
Always something.
Give me one second to charge it or do something here.
That's not gonna get very far if I can't have a mouse.
And so what I'll do is I'll just use this existing topic
here and what you can do,
we can call this my new topic
and this could be like slash new topic.
This will be the URL we use.
And then you can go in here
and you can add specific collections.
So these are collections.
Remember collections contain content to this
and you can even add an image.
So I'll go ahead and let's upload a quick image here.
Let's see.
I have all my demo images right here.
Okay.
So to upload a quick image
and I'll show you how this works.
So we'll hit save and I go back to our site.
And so you don't notice there's nothing here right now
but I could technically go to new dash topic
and this would be where my platform name,
I made that different.
Hang on one second.
Oh yeah, new topic.
So I can add this to show in nav and I'll hit save.
This is probably the easier way to do it.
We'll save that.
Let's refresh this.
It should be showing up in the navigation here
and on the right side, let's just check here.
I may have messed it up.
Let's just do it one more time from scratch.
So let's go to collections by keyboard, new awesome topic.
And we'll just put like three collections in there
and let's say show in nav, hit save.
And I did, oh, let me just add a picture
because I do want to show you how that picture looks.
And then we will save this and let's refresh this.
And you'll see that my new awesome topic
has been added to the nav.
And when I click on it,
you'll see this plus all the collections underneath.
So there's just a little bug.
I'm not really sure what it is,
but it's not actually showing all the topics.
Isn't that awesome?
Great demo, not quite working yet.
So basically it doesn't look like it's saving
for some reason.
We'll look, oh, there we go.
Maybe I tried to do too many things.
Okay.
So these collections don't have background images
but I could go add images there.
So I could say like my topic could be like parenting
and then I could have different courses
or lessons and groups.
So when I click into this collection,
then I see all the pieces of content
underneath that collection.
And if I go back, I'll see the topic here.
And I think, let me show you one with,
I think the other collection has
actually a background image.
Let's just do that and save.
So there you go.
So if you have an image uploaded for that collection,
it will drop it in there for you
and you can jump into it and see that specific content.
I use this slide time
so I'm constantly moving things in and out.
That's why it's a little goofy right there.
But we'll also probably eventually have all your topics
listed out here.
So it'd be like, you know, popular topics or,
you know, we'll just list out,
this and this, this would be like your first topic,
your second topic, your third topic.
And so it lets people kind of start at a very high level
and then sort of zoom into what they want.
So that's a new feature.
Check it out, see what you think.
But that is definitely solving some problems
for a few of our clients.
And I know that you guys have been waiting for that.
So I always like to keep these less than 10 minutes.
So I'll stop there.
If you have any questions, always drop a comment below.
You can always check out help at tribesocial.io.
And that comes to me and our team
and we can get quick feedback to you for this.
So thanks for following along in the journey
and we'll see you in the next couple of weeks.
Hope you guys, if you're in the US,
have an awesome 4th of July
and we'll catch you in the next few weeks.
