I was working on a lengthy Post over a period of 10-12 days, adding data and information on the topic, one-item-at-a-time, and now it’s gone. I closed the P2 at one point to allow system updates on my device and when I re-opened the next day the Post draft was still the first thing I saw. I opened today and it doesn’t show in Posts or Drafts. Search reveals nothing.
I see no way to step back in time to restore a previous version. What have I done and is there a remedy? Thx. M
@jonburke et al When onboarding new P2 users on my sites, I have referred them to the P2Help section on Interface at https://p2help.wordpress.com/using-p2/the-interface/ With the recent changes, those pages need to be updated. Thanks.
I do see there is a mention of navigating the new interface at https://p2help.wordpress.com/using-p2/posts/post-filters/
We rolled out a new block today called changelog. You can read a post about it on the somewhat new P2 Updates.
If you haven’t used a changelog it’s a nice visual representation of what your team or company is working on or where your project stands. Here’s what it looks like:
new
Posted news on P2Feedback.
improved
Added a video walk-through on P2 Updates.
fixed
Right sized the screen grab.
Metrics
Number of changelogs posted.
If you have any ideas for how you might use the changelog please leave a comment.
The P2 Changelog is good value
You can find standalone changelog products that cost $50 to $279 per month. In contrast with P2 it is yet another block.
I can’t say I’m loving this change to P2 which I now see also affects all my own P2’s. Can someone explain the rational for the change and whether we have the option of changing it back to the way it was previously? Thanks.
Also, I see a “submit for review” button below the posting area instead of Post. AFAIK I am a Contributor here, so are there now different role permissions on P2 sites?
@jonburke, when trying to link a specific comment from this P2 in the comments section of @justjennifer blog, I noticed that there was always a card, but with a link to the topic (post), not to the comment. I tested it on other sites and saw that the same thing happened. What is that? See:
Since yesterday, there is a problem with the interaction between the paragraph and image blocks. Before, when I clicked “Align left” in an image above a text, the text went to the left of the image, as can be seen here:
Now nothing is happening.
In the back end editor everything is normal.
We are posting a series of short videos where Automattic employees explain how they make the most of P2 and are posting them over on P2 Guides. The first three are:
I’d love to integrate our company P2 into other apps. Most importantly, that would mean having automatic posts to our company Slack when a new post goes out. It seems that for this it is necessary to have the zapier plugin for wordpress. However P2 doesn’t seem to allow plugins (for good reasons I’m sure, as the wide world of wordpress plugins would certainly be too broad) – but is there another alternative to achieve what I’m trying to do? Thanks!
@jonburke, could you ask those responsible for the translation where I find the strings for “Collapse thread” and “Expand thread”? I looked for them to help with the translation into my language, but I couldn’t find them.
