Occasionally you want to share a draft version of your release notes before publishing them to the world. We are testing a new “Public Share Link” feature that allows you to generate a unique link for your releases and share them with anyone outside your organization. The release can be in any state, private, or draft.

We generated a share link for one of our private draft releases as a demo. Click here to check it out.

You can enable this feature via Settings → Labs.

P.S. It’s also great for previewing your release notes before making them publicly available.

We’ve got a special gift for you today - Onset dark mode. It’s finally here! Page light and dark themes are automatically toggled based on your computer’s system settings. Of course, you can override the system settings by manually toggling the switch in the header.

In this release, we are focusing on page privacy. Password-protected pages are now available for preview. Lock your page and only allow those with the password to view it.

Currently, the password-protected privacy layer must be turned on via the Labs settings. To enable the feature for your workspace, please navigate to Settings → Labs.

Password-protected pages are available for paid customers only, Team Plan, and above.

Our design and development team has been diligently laboring over every last detail of Onset Pages for the last several months. Today we are so excited to show off this brand new way to use public pages.

Here are a few highlights:

• All Releases - all your release notes under a single page.
• New Sidebar - floating sidebar that allows your users to search quickly and toggle between projects.
• Subscription Window - the ability for your readers to subscribe to multiple projects at once.

Reactions let users rate a release. Once a customer finishes reading your release, they can let you know how they feel about it by reacting with a happy, neutral or disappointed face.
