  • The calm before Christmas 🎄
    Dec 19 2024

    After a couple of eventful weeks, things are finally slowing down for the holidays.

    • Queen Raae’s let-it-snow script
    • Userlist’s Conversion Goals feature

    Things have been pretty busy on the product side for Benedikt and the Userlist team: launching the Conversion Goals feature, releasing new workflow node types, and more. And after working around a hard problem for quite a while, the team has finally refactored how the platform works with conditions.

    With Webflow cutting their membership feature in 12 months, Benedicte is planning to make some good demos that would hopefully attract former Webflow customers. And despite being a bit nervous about the templates being filled up correctly, she successfully pushed the payment reminders for Whee customers. On the fun side of things, she and James applied a script to the Outseta website so it’s snowing for the holiday season.

  • Debugging horror stories 👻
    Nov 28 2024

    Benedicte and Benedikt share life and work updates, and some debugging horror stories.

    Benedicte and her Pirate family have been low key sick all month. Despite feeling under the weather, they were able to bake and pack more than 100 cookies for the Christmas Market at school. She finished her Xano + Outseta (XO) Vanilla Demo for Outseta, and is doing price adjustments for Whee.

    Benedikt feels recharged from his birthday vacation last weekend. On the work front, they recently shipped improvements on how they do condition on Userlist, making it possible to filter users by companies that are within the segment.

    They also talk about some debugging horror stories, token exchanges, and more.
