I just can't get why all of the changes to the New Blog!
So far, I've found the following features have been disabled on thew blog:
1) Analytics of blog posts - how do I see blog page views, time on my website, etc with the new blog?
2) Scheduling of blog posts - I used the schedule option every time with the old blog...now it's gone.
3) No option for "Add Subscribers" - I figured out an option to make it work (not nearly as well as the previous option, but it's "ok"), but why can't a reader sign up for my blog right in the blog post?
What else am I missing (I'm sure there are many other things!)?
Come on Wix...if you're going to get rid of something, make the new version better...not far worse!
Hi Jonathan,
thanks for sharing your opinion, we value it a lot. We're constantly roll-outing features on the new Wix Blog. It is already better than the old in terms of better seo, performance and integration with the Wix Code.
Let me answer your comments:
1. We are going to work on Blog Analytics very soon, it is confirmed in our plans.
2. Scheduling is on the way too.
3. Readers can sign-up for your Blog by clicking the 'Sign-up/log-in' button in the upper blog menu (if you display it), or when they sign-up to leave the comment. They have to go to the member settings to subscribe to the Blog updates and receive email notification when the new post is published. You can also toggle on the option for your Subscribers (who registered via Wix Get Subscribers app) to receive the email notifications about the new post, please read here more.
Share more of you feedback if you have - always welcome! Thanks!
