Page Speed Improvements ⚡️

We introduced two new initiatives to improve how the Sleeknote script loads on your website and impacts your page speed.

We’ve got several reports from our customers about Google PageSpeed Insights considering the Sleeknote script as a potential issue.

Although Sleeknote shouldn't affect your page speed negatively, we found the source of the problem to be a JavaScript method we’ve been using. To fix that, we stopped using the document.write() method to load our script.

You should no longer see that misleading speed information on PageSpeed Insights.

With this update, we also started using multiple threads of execution while loading our script. By splitting the load of the Sleeknote script into multiple parts, we now ensure that other scripts can be loaded in the meantime without being blocked.

Client Script Update

Some major improvements to the script that is running on your website.

It includes, much better performance and less load speed impact on the website it self, in some browsers up to 400% better.

Better responsiveness for mobile campaigns.

Better IE 11 support.

Better cache handeling and many more smaller updates and improvements.


Mailchimp GDPR Update 💭

When you use the option “Mark as Opted-In for GDPR” in your Mailchimp integration setup, you’ll now see a friendly warning from us. We’ll simply ask you to enable GDPR fields in your Mailchimp account to make sure that your new signups are sent to your ESP correctly.

If you’re using this option in Sleeknote, follow these steps to enable GDPR fields in your Mailchimp account.

Analytics Cache 📈

With this update, we start storing your campaign data in your browser after login. This means you’ll access your Analytics data much faster in the Dashboard and on “My Campaigns.” 🚀
You can see when your data is last updated and simply click the “Refresh Data” button to get the latest numbers.

Countdown Timer Improvements

Now you can choose between showing a message to visitors or completely disabling your campaign when the countdown timer reaches zero. With this update, you don’t have to specify a start date for your countdown timer, either.
