28 September 2026
06:10:31 GMT+0000
Added
- Added a resize handle to the Parse.ly HUD’s side panel. Drag it, or focus it and use the arrow keys, to set the panel’s width; double-click it to go back to the default. Your chosen width is remembered.
Changed
- Narrowed the Parse.ly HUD’s side panel so more of your page stays visible beside it.
Fixed
- Fixed the Parse.ly HUD’s side panel reopening on every page load after being closed. It now stays closed as you move between pages, for the rest of the browser session.
- Restored the explanations that appear when you hover a metric in a metric picker. They also now appear when you reach a metric with the keyboard.
25 September 2026
07:17:59 GMT+0000
Added
- Search results on a network dashboard now show which site each post, video or page belongs to, on the Search page and in the top bar search.
Fixed
- Fixed the links to the original article on search results when picking a post for a new headline test.
- Fixed search suggestions on networks without rollup opening a page that said “This view is not available for this account.” They now open on the site each result comes from.
- Restored Parse.ly MCP sign-in for clients that register dynamically (Claude Desktop, Copilot Studio).
- MCP connections stay authenticated longer between sign-ins, so tools that don’t refresh tokens silently disconnect less often.
24 September 2026
12:06:58 GMT+0000
Fixed
- Fixed the Database Backups page repeatedly re-requesting backup data in the background.
24 September 2026

23 September 2026
19:21:55 GMT+0000
Fixed
- VIP Next: Fixed update checks failing when GitHub returns numeric repository pagination URLs.
- dev-env: Aligned the Go runtime recommended and default PHP version with PHP 8.4.
- Dev-env (Go):
dev-env startnow recreates the shared proxy when a stoppedvip-dev-env-proxycontainer is left behind, instead of reporting success without a proxy. - Enable
-d,--debugandDEBUGdiagnostics in the Go CLI, including local development environment operations. - Authenticate Go Pendo telemetry requests and report delivery failures through safe diagnostics in both runtimes.
- Omit admin_password from dev-env telemetry props
Changed
- dev-env: Set PHP 8.4 as the new recommended version
- Dev-env (Go): removed spurious
'sh' is not a Traefik commandnotices, openssl success messages, and the network JSON dump fromdev-env startoutput.
Added
- Go CLI: Add native macOS and Windows installers with PATH configuration and installer-managed upgrades.
23 September 2026
17:24:15 GMT+0000
Fixed
- Fixed media URL classification and deduplication so re-imported media is matched correctly instead of being duplicated.
- UI updates for the settings screen and manage listing.
- Surfaced sync-status batch failures on the Manage listing. A failed batch of live sync checks now marks every row “Sync check failed” instead of leaving them looking verified with no badge.
- Resolved source post IDs across every post type, not only the ones checked previously.
- Normalized whitespace in URLs during import.
- Skipped post types whose REST controller throws, instead of failing the whole import.
- Kept rollback from deleting media that another post still uses.
- Refused imports over a trashed source-identity claim. Importing over a trashed destination copy could previously create a second post claiming the same source identity; imports now resolve identity claims across every post status, including trash.
Removed
- Removed obsolete DataViews skin.
23 September 2026
16:08:24 GMT+0000
Changed
- Clarified audit log messages for organization roles automatically assigned during SSO sign-in.

08:00:58 GMT+0000
Fixed

20:25:37 GMT+0000
Fixed
- Enterprise Search: Prevent cross-site and persistent post-cache contamination from search results.
22 September 2026

No customer-visible Real-Time Collaboration changes were identified between the deployed baseline and the new artifact.
Fixed
