The Weebly Blog

We've been hard at work on your most requested features to make Weebly even better for you, and we're excited to release one of the top requests: more advanced site statistics!

When you click on "View Stats" next to the site title, a new window will now open up that shows many more statistics, including:

• Pageviews (everyone): how many pages on your site have been viewed?
• Unique visitors (everyone): how many people have viewed your site?
  
• Top pages (pro only): what are your top pages?
  
• Search Terms (pro only): what do people search for to get to your site?
  
• Referring sites (pro only): what sites are your visitors coming from?

While the Top Pages, Search Terms, and Referring Sites are only available to Pro users, all Weebly users are getting upgrades: previously, only a 7-day Pageview history was available; now, all users have access to a 30-day history of both Pageviews and Unique Visitors!

You'll notice that we've only been collecting the new data for a little over a week, so it will fill out over time. Also, because of the some of the upgrades we made to the statistics system, you'll notice that some of the stats from Wednesday, February 17th may be under-reported by a bit.

As always, we're working around the clock improving Weebly for you, and have a few more excited things to announce in the next few weeks. We appreciate your support, and thanks again for using Weebly!

We're finally ready to test out some new features we've been working on for a long time: a complete redesign of the "Designs" tab.

Since this is such a large feature and there might be some bugs, we're releasing it to beta.weebly.com only for now, so feel free to log-in and check it out.

Instead of the theme categories being shown in the left bar, there's now an "All Themes" option. When you click on this button, you can browse themes in a larger, expanded gallery format. You can rate themes, view similar themes, and sort by Most Popular or Most Recent.

Right above the "All Themes" link is a "Design Options" button. When you click here, you can edit various design options of your theme, like font, color, and font size for your site title, paragraph title, paragraph text, and links.

The first button, "Favorites," is a list of your favorite themes and most popular Weebly themes. Before you choose any of your favorites, we've added ours to the list to get you started. And any time you see a theme thumbnail, you can click on the star to favorite it.

These have been our most requested features for a long time, and we're really excited to be able to show you a preview.

If you're interested in testing these new features, go to beta.weebly.com. As you may encounter some bugs, please email beta@weebly.com with any issues you run into.

As always, we really appreciate your support, and we're excited to be testing these features now, so we can release them to everybody soon!

We just pushed out some new additions to the form element that we think you'll enjoy.

Predefined Options:

When collecting information from your website visitors, you probably want to ask common questions like "How old are you?", "How satisfied are you?", or "Where are you from?".  We added a new feature called "predefined options" that makes asking these questions really easy.  With one click, you can have all the appropriate options added into your form.  We'd hate for you to have to manually type out all 50 state names!

File upload field:

Now you can accept file uploads from your website visitors!  Just drag on the "file upload" field to a form and you can instantly be accepting pictures, documents, or whatever you wish through your website.  Due to the space requirements of accepting a lot of file uploads from your website visitors, we've made this feature available to our pro account members.

We hope you enjoy these updates! We have some more super cool stuff coming out shortly, so stay tuned.  As always, we really appreciate your support of Weebly!
