Here at Omnisend, our teams develop the product regularly, and new features and improvements are released weekly.

In this article, you will find essential information related to the recent releases that will help you optimize your marketing with Omnisend even more.


Email Builder

Improved Product Recommender Settings

We've added some fantastic new Product Recommender settings in the Email Builder! Now, you can easily exclude specific categories from recommendations, giving you even more control over customizing your emails.

Expanded Product Listings

You can now include up to 12 products in your Product Recommender listings, up from the previous limit of 8.

Deliverability

Combined Email Addresses and Sender Domains Settings

We've unified the settings for email addresses and sender domains, simplifying how you manage your email configurations.

Role-Based Email Address Support

You can now send emails to your owned domains, even if the recipient's inbox is a role-based email address. This applies to test emails, campaigns, and automation emails, provided the domain is verified in your Store settings → Email → Sender domains.

Automations

New Welcome Presets

Workflows created from Welcome presets will now have 'Subscribed to marketing' as a trigger, replacing the previous 'Sign up' trigger. This allows various opportunities to target different customer groups in a single flow.

If you've already set up a welcome automation, there's no need to make any adjustments—it will still work just fine. We'll update your automation with the new trigger logic later unless you want to test our latest addition yourself.

Audience

Contact Import Changes

We've made re-importing contacts as subscribed as seamless as possible with the 'import as subscribed' checkbox.

Other Updates

Onboarding Tools for Headless Stores

New tools are available to help onboard if you have headless stores, including setup instructions and reporting features to ensure a smooth integration process.

Combined Discounts for Shopify

Our new Shopify Combined Discounts feature allows you to combine Omnisend-generated discounts in email and SMS automations and email campaigns with Shopify order, product, or shipping discounts. This integration provides a seamless way to offer stacked discounts to customers, enhancing user experience and conversion rates.

User Interface Enhancements

We are constantly updating our user interface to improve your experience. Some recent changes include enhancements to the progress bar in campaigns, more action buttons, and error handling in signup forms. We have also made navigating dropdown menus and managing your forms easier. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to refine and enhance our platform 💚

Integrations

FuseWP. We're introducing the FuseWP app, which seamlessly connects WordPress with Omnisend. Key features include automatic updates, seamless unsubscribes, tag assignment, and custom field sync. Read more in the dedicated guide.


We hope these updates enhance your experience and improve the efficiency of managing your email & SMS marketing. Stay tuned for more exciting features next month!
