Changelog
All notable changes to Generous.nz are recorded here, grouped by version. Every deployed build has a version number, a git tag, and an entry below.
Versioning scheme
Versions follow MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH:
- 0.x — pre-launch. Minor bumps mark a completed build phase or major feature set; patches are bug fixes on the current build.
- 1.0.0 — first public launch.
- 1.x+ — post-launch: minor = new features, patch = fixes, major = breaking changes or significant re-architecture.
Each version is tagged in git (v0.2.0) and the current version is kept in
package.json. See docs/version-control.md for how to cut a release.
[0.9.197] — 2026-08-26
Changed
- Business landing page redesigned like the register page: the sign-up form
now sits front and centre inside the hero (right column on desktop, first on
mobile) with sign-in and terms alongside, and the old form section at the
bottom was replaced with a final CTA. The
#signupanchor (and referral links like/business#signup) now lands on the hero form.
[0.9.196] — 2026-08-26
Changed
- The changelog page is now paginated (8 versions per page) so the full history isn't dumped in one view, with "Newer"/"Older" navigation.
- Removed the last remaining references to other platforms (XXXXX) from the changelog's historical entries.
[0.9.195] — 2026-08-26
Changed
- Page widths aligned with the wholesale catalogue (
max-w-6xl): help centre, getting started, blog index, changelog and the legal pages. Legal document text stays at a readable column width inside the wider page shell.
[0.9.194] — 2026-08-26
Changed
- Register page redesigned in the style of the business landing page: a gradient hero with the pitch on the left and the sign-up form front and centre (first on mobile), followed by "more ways to raise" cards and a trust section. If the visitor arrived via a referral link, a matching invite banner shows the bonus above the form.
- Referral landing-page CTAs now link straight to the sign-up forms
(
/business#signupand/register#signup) instead of just the top of the page.
[0.9.193] — 2026-08-26
Changed
- Both referral landing pages' fine print now notes that Stripe's processing fees still apply on every transaction (business and fundraiser links).
[0.9.192] — 2026-08-26
Changed
- Referral attribution is now first-touch for both fundraiser and business links: the first invite a visitor opens is saved for 5 days and later links never override it, so the first referrer keeps the bonus. Landing pages show the credited inviter when an invite is already saved.
[0.9.191] — 2026-08-26
Changed
- Fundraiser referral landing page upgraded to match the business page: a prominent "Your invite bonus" card showing $100 of first fundraising fee-free ($0.00 platform fee on the first $100, then 5% + GST only when you raise, donors can cover the fee) plus a trust strip (direct Stripe payments, AI fraud checks, made in NZ, no monthly fees).
[0.9.190] — 2026-08-26
Added
- Referral links (
/r/G-…) now open a tailored sales landing page instead of redirecting straight to sign-up. Business links pitch the first $1,000 in sales fee-free, direct payments and order fulfilment; fundraiser links pitch the first $100 raised fee-free with the full range of raise types and AI tools. Each page shows the inviter, the offer, how it works, FAQ, and a clear CTA, and the 5-day referral cookie is still set on load (via a server action) so the reward is claimed at sign-up. Unknown/invalid links show a friendly generic page instead of an error.
