A homepage that explains itself

A rebuilt homepage, sharper copy throughout the app, and the groundwork that lets AI assistants describe WritePage accurately.

New

  • A rebuilt homepage that actually says what WritePage does: what you get on each plan, how it compares to stitching together a blog host and an email tool, and answers to the questions people kept emailing us.
  • Link previews. Share any WritePage page on social or in a chat app and it now unfurls with a proper title, description, and image instead of a bare URL.

Improved

  • Search engines and AI assistants can now read the structure of our pages directly, so answers about WritePage pricing and features are far likelier to be current and correct.
  • Plainer wording across settings, onboarding, and the post editor. Fewer words, less jargon, same screens.

Cleaner post URLs, and pagination everywhere

See a post’s real URL before you publish it, and page through long lists instead of scrolling forever.

New

  • The post editor now shows the exact URL your post will live at, updating as you type. No more publishing and then discovering the address is not what you expected.
  • Pagination on the blog directory and throughout the admin tables, with sortable columns. Long lists no longer load all at once.

Fixed

  • Post URLs are now normalized consistently, so pasting a title or a full URL into the address field produces a clean, valid link instead of a broken one. Existing posts with malformed addresses were repaired.

A calmer dashboard

A pass over every screen in the writing dashboard: consistent spacing, real loading states, and error messages that tell you what happened.

Improved

  • Every dashboard screen — posts, analytics, newsletter, calendar, comments, settings — now shares the same spacing, type, and controls, so moving between them stops feeling like moving between apps.
  • Pages show a loading state while they fetch instead of flashing an empty screen, and when something goes wrong you get an error you can act on rather than a blank page.
  • Editor polish: better image resizing and a clearer preview of drafts before they go out.

Transactional emails are sending again

A deploy configuration problem had stopped account emails — verification, password resets, newsletter confirmations — from going out. It is fixed.

Fixed

  • Account emails such as address verification, password resets, and newsletter confirmations stopped sending after a deployment. The cause was a missing mail configuration in our deploy setup; sending resumed as soon as it was corrected. If you were stuck waiting on a verification email during this window, requesting a new one now works.

Homepage visual fixes

Crisper homepage imagery and a headline that no longer wraps awkwardly on desktop.

Improved

  • Homepage images were replaced with higher-quality versions that stay sharp on high-resolution displays.

Fixed

  • The main headline broke onto two lines at some desktop widths. It now holds a single line.
