We also added icons to make it easier to quickly identify the reason for the alert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1170\" height=\"575\" data-attachment-id=\"23544\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.gigsalad.com\/blog\/product-update-october-2020\/components-desktopx2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gigsalad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Components-Desktopx2.png?fit=1596%2C784&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1596,784\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Components-Desktopx2\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gigsalad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Components-Desktopx2.png?fit=1596%2C784&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gigsalad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Components-Desktopx2.png?resize=1170%2C575&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23544\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gigsalad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Components-Desktopx2.png?w=1596&amp;ssl=1 1596w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gigsalad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Components-Desktopx2.png?resize=768%2C377&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gigsalad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Components-Desktopx2.png?resize=1536%2C755&amp;ssl=1 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1170px) 100vw, 1170px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Radio options and checkboxes <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>We cleaned up checkboxes and radio selectors across the site so they are more in line with our updated UI and design standards around the web.

A couple of notable ones recently were: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Saved messages<\/strong>. If you previously tried to add or update a saved message without a title, it wouldn&#8217;t return an error letting you know that it wasn&#8217;t working. Now, the update button won&#8217;t even appear until the required title is provided.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>All-day events.<\/strong> When you add all-day events to your GigSalad calendar, those were previously displaying on your profile as 12:00am &#8211; 11:59pm. That is odd and not user-friendly, so we fixed it and those dates now say &#8220;all day event.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"sales\">See your savings options<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We recently made it easier to view and compare how much you are saving when using a coupon to upgrade or add time to your membership. Before, the discount amount was only shown in the price breakdown. Now, all membership options will show their full price as well as the discounted price for the coupon being applied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group caption\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gigsalad.com\/promokit\/account\/change-membership\/checkout\/featured?coupon=BOO40&amp;utm_source=promokit-sale&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=promokit-sale-10-2020-product-update\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1170\" height=\"623\" data-attachment-id=\"23526\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.gigsalad.com\/blog\/product-update-october-2020\/discount-display\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gigsalad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/discount-display.png?fit=1594%2C849&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1594,849\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"discount-display\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gigsalad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/discount-display.png?fit=1594%2C849&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gigsalad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/discount-display.png?resize=1170%2C623&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23526\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gigsalad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/discount-display.png?w=1594&amp;ssl=1 1594w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gigsalad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/discount-display.png?resize=768%2C409&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gigsalad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/discount-display.png?resize=1536%2C818&amp;ssl=1 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1170px) 100vw, 1170px\" \/><\/a>\n\n<p>For October only, use the promo code <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gigsalad.com\/promokit\/account\/change-membership\/checkout\/featured?coupon=BOO40&amp;utm_source=promokit-sale&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=promokit-sale-10-2020-product-update\">BOO40<\/a> to save 40%!<\/p><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"pragya\">Who&#8217;s that girl&#8230; it&#8217;s Pragya!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s always cool to watch our team grow, and Pragya is an especially exciting addition for all the reasons we mentioned <a href=\"#research\">above<\/a>.
