Changelog

1.12.0 - Friday 29 July

  • Shared Dashboards

Dashboard on a TV in your office? Want to have a public stats page? Share a dashboard with someone who doesn't have a PostHog account? You can now publicly share a dashboard. Just click "Share Dashboard" and enable sharing. You'll get a link that's publicly accesible.

Changed your mind? You can always disable sharing.

  • Aggregate Functions

Want to know the average revenue per user? Want to know the lowest browser version anyone is using? You can now do Sum, Max, Min and Avg calculations on any event property and graph them in trends!

  • Global Annotations

Digging through git commits to find out what changed to make the graphs go hay-wire? No more! You can now annotate when something happened (a big release, a bugfix or a launch) and make it super easy for your team-mates to figure out what's going on. Now global.

As part of this, you can now also manage, add and delete annotations from a central screen.

  • Funnel Step Time

You can now see how long it takes users on average to get through steps in a funnel.

  • Regex Filtering

Regex master? Put those skills to use on any property with regex filtering

  • Retention Table Improvements

Previously the retention table was hardcoded to only recognize the $pageview event as a retention event. Now, you can select any action or event to measure retention on.

Clicking on any section in the retention table will tell you exactly what users fall in that item.

1.11.0 - Friday 17 July

Other exciting, enthralling and invigorating features

  • Flutter Integration. You asked for it and now it's here!
  • Retention page. PostHog already had stickiness, but now there is a table that demonstrates perhaps more clearly how your users are coming back (or not!)

retention view

  • Better onboarding. We've had a go at redoing how our set up flow works, and will be tracking if it helps more people get through PostHog's own funnel!
  • Platform.sh deployment. A very simple, new and trendy way to get up and running!
  • Porter development. Join the cool kids and do web development in the cloud. Thank you so much to porter-dev for creating this PR.
  • Event name filtering. By popular demand, you can now filter the events table by the event name. Happy debugging your implementations!
