What's New on Delightree

Franchise teams move fast, and so do we. These updates are powered by your feedback, real use in the field, and a shared obsession with doing things better.

Release Notes for May 30, 2025
Knowledge Base

Streamlined Chapter & Asset Workflow
Media uploads are now labeled “Assets,” clearly separating them from “Chapters.” You can build a chapter from scratch, upload a single image as its own chapter, or preview everything in either List or Grid view.

Location Launcher

Zip-Code Smart Location Setup
Adding a new location now requires only the zip code. Location Launcher fills in city, state, and country automatically. If the zip is unknown, it lets you enter the HQ details with one click as a placeholder.

Relaxed CSV Import Requirements

CSV imports relax address and contact-detail validation, so bulk uploads move forward even when some information is still pending.

Automatic Time-Zone Detection with Manual Override
When you enter a zip code, Location Launcher automatically assigns the correct time zone, eliminating manual look-ups and reducing scheduling errors. Admins can still adjust the time zone by hand, preserving full control.

Knowledge Base

Audience-Specific Visibility Controls for Articles

Article visibility now uses a dual-checkbox model: one box ensures every open location can read the article, and a second box extends access to launching locations if desired. Combine those presets with individual site selections to fine-tune distribution. Documentation reaches the right people while proprietary playbooks stay protected.

Forms & Checklists

Contributor Permission Tooltip Clarity
A new tooltip appears when someone edits or completes a form, spelling out exactly what contributors can and cannot do.

Audience-Specific Visibility Controls for Forms
Visibility settings now offer two check boxes: show to all members at open locations and optionally include members at locations that are still launching. Admins can also add or remove individual sites to create any custom audience they need. This precision keeps sensitive content private while making sure every operator sees the material that applies to them.

Chat

Delete Confirmation Safeguard
Deleting a chat channel now triggers a quick confirmation dialog. The extra step prevents accidental loss of conversation history and keeps collaboration on track.

Location Launcher

Custom Go-Live Report Export
Operations leaders can download a spreadsheet directly from Location Launcher that lists each site’s planned go-live date and contact information.

Task Search and Filter Navigation
A new search bar and filter set let corporate admins and location owners jump straight to the tasks they care about. Less scrolling means faster, more accurate launches.

Members

Hide Inactive and Pending Users
A toggle now removes inactive or pending users from view, giving managers a clean roster of who is actually active in the system.

Bulk Invite Resend and Mass Delete
After filtering for inactive or pending status, admins can resend every outstanding invite or delete those accounts in one click. Housekeeping that once took hours now finishes in seconds, keeping user lists accurate and secure.

Audits

Evidence Attachments for Flagged Responses
When an auditor flags a response, they can immediately attach photos, documents, or a written note as evidence. The context travels with the issue so store managers see exactly what needs fixing.

Knowledge Base

What's New for You?

  • Restrict location members from interacting with each other: Staff can no longer view or message teammates outside their own store, protecting data privacy and ending cross-location chatter.

  • Brand Color Library: Save your brand color palette in the chapter editor; authors choose from preset swatches so every chapter stays perfectly on brand.
