What's new

Every update, dated the day it went live.

Numbered in the order they shipped. If you raised something with us, this is where you can see it land.

  1. #24Fixed

    Reports count only money actually received

    Revenue reports and top services now count paid appointments, kept deposits and refunds the same way as your Takings screen, and leave renters’ earnings out of salon totals. A discount can no longer take a bill below what the client has already paid.

  2. #23Improved

    Invite a renter from her record

    Add a renter who keeps her own system in the account portal, set her hours and time off from the dashboard, and invite her to Salony later with one click. If she joins, her record carries over.

  3. #22Improved

    Spaces in use show in the diary

    A renter on her own system appears in the diary as a space in use during her working hours, so online bookings never offer a chair she is sitting in. Her column is marked and cannot take salon bookings.

  4. #21New

    This page

    Every change to Salony now gets a numbered, dated entry here on the day it goes live, so you can see what has changed and whether something you raised has been resolved.

  5. #20New

    Team members who keep their own system

    You can now add a space renter who runs her own diary rather than Salony. Her rent agreement is recorded and her space is kept for her, and nothing else about her is stored unless she chooses to join.

  6. #19Improved

    Simpler salon setup

    Setting up a salon is now five steps. Your logo is optional and lives in Settings, so a salon without one still shows as fully set up.

  7. #18Improved

    Joining from your invitation is one step

    An independent team member invited to rent a space now joins by opening the link and signing in. No code to type and nothing to confirm twice.

  8. #17Fixed

    Staff can add as many bookings as needed

    A limit meant for the public booking page was also stopping team members adding a regular client’s appointments from the dashboard. It no longer applies to staff.

  9. #16Improved

    Clearer money permissions

    Owners and admins see the revenue reports. Managers keep the overall takings and the till. Independent team members see only their own lists and earnings.

  10. #15Improved

    Completed bookings stay with who did them

    Once a booking is marked as done it stays with the team member who did the work, paid or not, so any later payment question lands with the right person.

  11. #14Improved

    Voucher voids, till refunds and analytics tidied

    Voiding a voucher now records who, when and why. A till refund can never hand back more cash than was taken. Analytics figures now match your Takings screen.

  12. #13Under the hood

    Reliability, speed limits and monitoring

    Background jobs recover on their own if one gets stuck, slow connections time out instead of hanging, and every update now passes automated checks before it goes live.

  13. #12Fixed

    Online bookings stay within opening hours

    The booking page and the embedded widget no longer offer a time that would run past closing, even where a team member’s working hours run later.

  14. #11Fixed

    Bookings sit on the right day

    A booking in the first hour of a British Summer Time day was filed under the previous day in the diary, the month view and today’s list. All three now agree.

  15. #10Fixed

    Takings and refunds add up properly

    Pending money is what is still owed on live bookings, deposits held show on their own line, and every refund is recorded against the payment it came from, including partial refunds.

  16. #9Fixed

    Balance payments by link recorded correctly

    A balance paid through a payment link is now matched to its booking every time, so it is never flagged as a double payment.

  17. #8Improved

    Approvals and checkout respect who owns the client

    Pending approvals and the needs-checkout list now show each team member only the clients she is allowed to see.

  18. #7Improved

    Renters receive their own booking emails

    When a client books an independent team member through her own link, she gets the full booking details and the salon sees only that the time is taken. Clients who book through the salon’s own site stay the salon’s clients.

  19. #6New

    Clear grace period if a subscription payment fails

    If a subscription payment fails you get reminders over two weeks before the dashboard is paused, and your booking page stays open throughout. Paying in the account portal lifts the pause straight away.

  20. #5Fixed

    Kept deposits now count as takings

    When a client does not turn up, or cancels too late for a refund, the deposit you keep now appears in your takings on the day you kept it.

  21. #4Under the hood

    Online payment notices handled more safely

    If payment notices cannot be verified they are held and retried rather than dropped, so a payment is never silently missed.

  22. #3Fixed

    Gift vouchers redeem at checkout only

    A gift voucher is now redeemed against the appointment being paid for, and only salon staff can issue or void vouchers.

  23. #2Under the hood

    Stronger separation between salons and sign-ins

    Tightened how each salon’s data is kept to that salon, and a team member who has been removed is signed out straight away.

  24. #1Improved

    Independent team members keep to their own column

    A team member who rents a space can only change bookings in her own column, however the change is made. Salon staff cannot change hers.
