Changelog

The changelog is where you announce new features, improvements, and bug fixes. It's the final step in closing the feedback loop.

Creating an Entry

To create a new changelog entry:

1. Go to your workspace changelog
2. Click "New Entry"
3. Write your update using the rich text editor
4. Link related feedback posts
5. Publish when ready

Entry Components

Title & Date

Each entry needs a clear title and publication date. Use action-oriented titles:

• ✅ "New: Dark mode support"
• ✅ "Improved: Faster search results"
• ❌ "Update v2.3.1"

Content

Use markdown or the rich text editor to format your content:

## What's New

- Added dark mode support
- Improved search performance by 40%
- Fixed issue with email notifications

## Breaking Changes

- API endpoint `/v1/posts` now requires authentication
