PB Update - PB for new users
By Guy
tl;dr
Last week we shipped the following items:
Bugs:
Fixed a bug where not all documents were appearing in content relationship modal
Fixed a back where switching locales from a published doc wouldn't navigate to a draft document
Publish v2
Users can now Publish documents to a release (either through creating a new release or adding to an existing release)
Users can now see and select a release version from the versional panel
Users can publish a release version directly
Tracking
We are now tracking when users open the "Live preview" and "what's new" modals meaning we can get a better sense of the intent of users to set up the live preview in the PB
UX enhancements
When you now add a slice, you now scroll directly to that slice
Design/UXR
We are currently recruiting participants for both of our studies:
1. Live preview adoption
Goal: We aim to understand the full context behind why our users didn't set up the live preview
2. Content management workflows
Goal: Our aim is to understand end-to-end content management workflow for the ICP teams
Focus for this week:
Release Page Builder to new users
Now that we have the Publishing V2 feature available we want to open the Page Builder as the default experience for new users
Refining the document list
We want to start working on the document list. This will allow us to unblock work on granular users roles, as well as add the new search when we are ready. The team is working on the tech strategy for this feature and will communicate that alongside potential milestones this week
Legacy slices
As mentioned last week we have refined this issue and we are working on it this week. The first item is to show the legacy slice in the Table of Slices
Performance improvements
When there are lots of slices in the table of slices the app can become unresponsive or slow so you can wait a long time to see other concurrent updates like publish button enabled after a save. We are working on some performance improvements to mitigate against these type of issues in pages with lots of slices
