🔧 Bug, Fixes, and Improvements
- In the Ads Library, we added 3 new ownership filters for ads, assets, and designs tabs:
- My Ads (or assets/designs, depending on the selected tab)
- My Organization Ads
- BuyerBridge Ads
- Added an edit button to the Ads Library Ad Preview screen
- This will allow the user to edit an ad from this screen without having to go back to the search page for ads
- You can now select Grid Vertically, Horizontally, or View All by clicking the Fit option to view Ad Previews in the Ads Library
- Updated the Vehicle Performance Report to now include Year and Vehicle Trim columns as well as additional filtering options for Year, Make, Model, Trim, Condition, and Status
- Updated the following in the FB Organization Advertising report:
- Corrected the Leads / Clicks calculation
- The number of On-FB leads when downloading the CSV will now match what is displayed in the UI
- Resolved an error where the Secondary Color was not saving properly on the Agency Settings page
- Made adjustments to the Facebook Organization Budgeting page to speed up the loading time of the page
- This should prevent the page from requiring multiple re-loads to load the proper data.
- We have now added a Create button on top of the table in Campaign Management
- Fixed an issue with the Conversion rate showing up as incorrect on the Pinterest Organization Advertising report
- Resolved an issue with the TikTok leads not showing correctly in Campaign Management for Ad Sets and Ads
- Updated the tooltips in Ad Builder to reflect the proper name per Channel field
- In Ad Launcher, budgets are pre-populated to $20 per channel by default
- Users are able to edit the budget amount
- In Ad Launcher, when a user clicks to set a start date, it is pre-populated to the current date and time
- In Ad Launcher, when a user clicks to set an end date, it is pre-populated the field to be 30 days from the current date and time
- A new pre-configured page has been added to Report Builder for Matchback data.
- This pre-configured page can be added to any existing report or used in any new reports that get created
- You should be able to add this to the PDF report that we are using for the monthly reports so it will automatically come in next month's reporting file
- We have moved the API calls to retrieve playbooks in the dashboard to ElasticSearch which reduces the amount of time it takes to load the playbooks page and playbooks tab in Ads Library
- NOTE: When these Ads are deleted all save data will be lost so we have a confirmation modal that will display when deleting an AdAdded delete icons to Ad Builder so users are able to delete Ads while in the Ad creation process
- Added "If you exit with unsaved changes, in-progress ads will be lost" messaging when the Exit option is selected while using the Ad Builder
