Weekly Recap: Faster Participant Downloads, Better BGR Details & Customizable Product Badges 📸✨

Hey photo friends! 👋

‍

Candy here with a lighter update this week—but still plenty of handy improvements across the Dashboard and Retail site. This week’s changes focus on making participant data faster to work with, improving BGR/AI image visibility, and adding clearer product signals for shoppers.

‍

Let’s take a look!

‍

👥 Participant & Contact Improvements

‍

⚡ Faster participant download sheets‍

• • The participant download sheet on the Event Participant List page now generates much faster, especially for large Events.

‍

🪪 Scan cards with images but no contact info are easier to find‍

• • If an Event has scan cards that already have images but no contact information, they’ll now appear above the participant table.
• • You can click one to view the images and add contact information, turning it into a full Participant!

‍

🏷️ PhotoTags in Participant image lightboxes‍

• • On the Participant Details page, image lightboxes now show PhotoTag assignments just like Manage Images does—with the ability to edit them right there.

‍

📊 Order average on Event Overview‍

• • The Event Overview page now shows order average on the Orders chart.

‍

🖼️ BGR, AI & Image Detail Improvements

‍

🔍 Preview Original now works for BGR images‍

• • On Manage Images, you can now use Preview Original in the lightbox for BGR images, not just AI images.
• • Pro tip: use the \ key to toggle original preview.

‍

📂 Original Folder shown for BGR and AI images‍

• • The lightbox now shows the original image’s folder for BGR and AI images.

‍

🧾 Image Details now available for BGR images‍

• • BGR images now support the Image Details page anywhere the lightbox previously showed Details, Participants, Logs.

‍

👥 Original participant list shown for BGR/AI images‍

• • For BGR images and AI images uploaded directly from Candy Image Studio or Auto Editor, Image Details now shows the participants from the original image.

‍

📍 Face box positioning fix‍

• • Fixed an edge case where face boxes could shift out of place after resizing the webpage or content.

‍

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Virtual Group Builder

‍

🖼️ Improved logo placement‍

• • Logo placement in Virtual Group Builder has been updated so logos fit better within the default crop across supported aspect ratios.

‍

🧭 Dashboard Navigation & Reports

‍

🔙 Better browser Back behavior‍

• • When returning to the Event List page with filters applied, browser back navigation should now behave better and reapply your search/filter state.

‍

📊 Report filters save in the URL‍

• • Report filters now support refreshing, browser history, and shareable filtered views (they're now saved in the URL).

‍

🏠 Recent Orders count fixed‍

• • Fixed an item count issue in the Recent Orders section on the Home/Landing page.

‍

🛍️ Retail Updates

‍

🏷️ New “Customizable” badge‍

• • Products that include meaningful customization (color or style choices available) now show a Customizable badge on the store sheet. Products where the only customization is captions are not included.

‍

🖼️ Personal Gallery Download wording update‍

• • The Personal Gallery Download sheet now says “Group Photos are not included” instead of “Team Photos are not included” for non-sports Events.

‍

That’s the week!

‍

A smaller update, but a useful one—faster participant exports, clearer BGR/AI image details, better filtered navigation, and improved product clarity for shoppers.

‍

Keep creating magic,

Candy 🍬
