Tightknit Release Notes (Apr 7, 2026) Tightknit Release Notes - April 7, 2026 (https://res.cloudinary.com/dvmv1iqze/image/upload/v1775573969/slack-message-images/tightknit-changelog/2026/04-07-2026/rn_04-07-2026_easter.png) 🏷️ Group Tags Into Sections Tag Sections demo (https://res.cloudinary.com/dvmv1iqze/image/upload/v1775574086/Tag-sections_vjjuub.gif) Tags now be visually organized into named sections, so things like cities, regions, or event types stay organized inside a single filter dropdown. Add a section when you create or edit a tag in Studio, and the corresponding filter dropdowns on your companion site will automatically render section headers. 🛠️ Improvements and Fixes Studio • Home Page layout settings - Configurations for the companion site's Home page layout are now in the Studio settings under Site > Appearance > Home Page (https://studio.tightknit.ai/~/settings/site/home-page). • Post and comment edit version history - Edits to posts and comments now keep a full version history, giving moderators a clean audit trail of who changed what and when. • Email DNS records for custom email domains - Set up a custom sending domain for community emails right from Studio. The new flow shows you the exact DNS records to hand to your IT team and validates them automatically once they propagate. • Font color options for certificate generation - Award certificates now support a configurable font color, so designs can match your brand instead of being locked to the default. • Members page column visibility is now persistent - Show or hide columns on the Members page once and your choices are remembered the next time you come back. • Auto-create redirects from new Tag Group and Collection pages - Creating a new Tag Group or Content Collection now drops you straight onto its detail page so you can keep editing without an extra navigation hop. • Standardized page header terminology - Settings pages across Studio now use consistent header labels and patterns, reducing the small papercuts when navigating between areas. • User email surfaced in the profile menu - Your logged-in email is now visible in the Studio profile menu so it's clear which account you're acting as. • Auto-archive feeds when Slack channels go private - When a public Slack channel is converted to private, its connected feed is now archived automatically. Companion Site • Improved Slack block rendering - Upgraded the Slack-to-JSX renderer so embedded Slack messages on the companion site look more faithful to their in-Slack appearance. • Fixed avatar not loading on first Google OAuth login - Resolved an issue where a member's avatar would be missing the very first time they signed in via Google OAuth. API • New POST /admin/v0/members/check endpoint - A new admin API endpoint lets you check whether a batch of members already exist in your community by email, ideal for pre-flighting bulk imports and integrations.
