πŸ–ΌοΈ Mini Update for Online Viewing Rooms (OVRs)

✨ New Features & Enhancements

  • πŸ”— Smarter URL Slugs
OVR URL slugs are now automatically generated based on the List Title instead of the user-inputted Link Name. This helps prevent internal or sensitive information from appearing in URLs.

βž• You can still customize the slug during creation if you'd like to override the default.

  • 🧭 UI Enhancements
We made visual and functional updates to the main OVR List interface for a more streamlined and intuitive experience.
  • πŸ–ΌοΈ Higher Banner Image Resolution
We've increased the maximum resolution for banner images, allowing your Online Viewing Rooms to shine with even greater visual clarity.

✨ Online Viewing Rooms (OVRs) Updates

πŸ—‚οΈ "Date Created" Column Added to OVR List

You can now sort your OVRs by Date Created directly from the All Viewing Room Links page. The list is sorted by this column by default for quick access to your most recent links.

πŸ’° Select Which Price Label to Display

Customize each OVR link by choosing the specific price label you want to display β€” such as Retail Price, Purchase Price, or Market Price.

Whether you're sharing prices in USD or SEK, you can tailor the display to match your audience.

πŸ›  To update, go to the Artwork Settings panel inside your OVR and choose from the Default Price Label dropdown.

βœ… Tip: Be sure that the selected price field is filled in for each artwork in your inventory so the correct value appears.

πŸ–ΌοΈ Banner Image URLs Now Supported

In addition to uploading a file, you can now use a direct image URL for your OVR Banner Image.

This is especially helpful if you're looking to include a high-resolution banner. (There’s currently a resolution limit on uploads, but the team is working on a fix for that.)

βž• Just paste your image link into the Image URL field under the Header section in OVR settings.
