When I begin to type a title of a new work in inventory, it automatically saves even if I am not done typing. Therefore the “chain” will be wrong so I need to go and press regenerate slug when I finish typing title. OR if I change my title later (for instance I spelled it wrong or want to tweak it) I also have to go and press the regenerate slug button. Most likely users do not know they need to do this to have the appropriate name link show in search bar. It would be nice it if updated automatically any changes in the regenerate slug.

It's just a little inconvenience, but if you click the [Add Inventory] button, then get distracted or realize you don't have all the information you need, abandoning the new item without entering ANYTHING, the system will still insert a new blank inventory record. A good test for a valid inventory record is at least a title (or the artist name). Checking for even a SINGLE field value specified should be a good indication of a valid record before insertion in the database.

Currently, when sending a new message to a client on ArtCloud and entering their email address, a pop-up allows you to input the client's first name, last name, company name, and email address if they are not already in the database. However, to add tags, notes, or any additional information, you need to navigate to the contacts tab and locate the contact again, leading to redundant steps and potential oversight. To streamline this process, it would be highly beneficial to integrate comprehensive contact management functionalities directly within the initial message composition interface. This enhancement would enable users to add tags (such as language preferences) and notes immediately when creating a new contact. By doing so, it reduces the need for repetitive tasks and ensures that all pertinent client information is captured in one seamless action, significantly improving the efficiency and usability of ArtCloud for managing diverse client groups.

It would be great to be able to enter contact when putting work on hold. For some reason that is not an option. Now you have to start first with searching in contacts and then make sure they are there and later go into the artwork and choose them.

Whenever I add images into an exhibition/series, the order goes back to the original state. Therefore, I have to go up to drop down and select again the order I wish them to be plus I have to re-order the ones that I had a changed the order of manually. It would be great to have a default setting that we could select, and it automatically put it in that order. For example price descending…

After about 6 months of sending campaigns it's clear that some users are either never opening campaigns or they're being sent to spam. There's no real way to clean up audience lists based on engagement at the moment. Since clicks and opens are tracked by ArtCloud per campaign analytics (and those opens and clicks appear under their contact Activities) can there be a filter added when building an audience that allows us to remove contacts who have never opened a campaign email? Or maybe filter them by "X" months since last open? This may also be helpful to folks who have spam emails appear on their audience list from bots or other things that find their way to a contact form. Those contacts will never open an email and could be weeded out in a less labor intensive fashion. I'm worried that as our audience continues to grow our open rates will continue to decline further harming our ability to beat spam filters.

Would be nice to have notifications for things like when an invoice closes or total sales end of day. Great for those owners who arent on site every day and dont want to refresh the app all the time!

We had a group of people come through the gallery today, all of whom filled out our contact cards with their names and emails. I think it would be helpful to be able to Bulk Add contacts (not import from an excel sheet), similar to how you have it set up for bulk adding inventory. Just a pop-up with a blank space for a name, email, and phone number. Then we could go back and add any additional information.

Currently, the web pages generated by the (fantastic) web builder don't correctly generate H1's / H2's / H3's etc. There should be an option to highlight text when editing to create an H1 / H2 / H3 both within a custom text block and within areas like the Artist bio in manager. The Heading would display in both design and in SEO improving content display and improving website rankings. Most headings created are literally saying the text "Page Title" which is no good for SEO.

In the current implementation of the email search functionality within ArtCloud, users are required to select auto-suggested email addresses for search queries to yield results. This necessitates exact matches from the beginning of the email and does not support partial or middle-string searches, reducing flexibility and increasing the time needed to locate information. Suggestion: Implement 'Contains...' Search Logic: I propose enhancing the email search to include a 'Contains...' logic. This change will allow users to enter any part of an email address in the search field and receive relevant results. For example, typing 'studio' should yield addresses like john@artstudio.com or studio@creativearts.net , enhancing the search flexibility and efficiency. Enable Direct 'Enter' to Execute Search: Additionally, integrating the ability to press 'Enter' after typing a search query would align ArtCloud with standard search behaviors seen in web browsers and other professional software. This functionality allows users to quickly confirm the presence of an email address without waiting for and selecting from auto-suggestions, streamlining the search process. By adopting these enhancements, ArtCloud would significantly improve user experience, align with common digital interaction standards, and support more efficient data retrieval, particularly in environments where quick information access is critical. This proposal aims to make the platform more intuitive and user-friendly, enhancing the overall effectiveness of the search functionality.
