October Releases

Notification templates that load every time & correct time zones in emails

Written by Andrey Gadashevich

🚀 New features

👉 Customer privacy requests are handled for you

When a customer asks Shopify to delete their data, Slot now removes their details from their bookings and deletes the matching Google Calendar events. When a customer asks for a copy of their data, we email you a list of their bookings so you can pass it on.

It all runs in the background, so there's nothing to set up.

Note: when you uninstall Slot, your custom email (SMTP) settings, admin notification recipients and email sending domain are removed too.

⚙️ Improvements

👉 Correct time zones in notification emails

Emails now show half-hour and 45-minute time zones in full, for example GMT +05:30 for India, +05:45 for Nepal and +09:30 for Adelaide, instead of rounding to the whole hour.

They also use the offset in effect on the appointment date, so bookings after a daylight saving change show the right time zone.

👉 A cleaner Notifications page

To access these settings, navigate to Notifications.

  • Sections are spaced evenly, without the large empty gaps between them.

  • In the Edit text window, every variable, such as {{appointment_type_name}}, is now fully visible instead of being cut off at the edge.

👉 Widget customization tidy-ups

To access these settings, navigate to Widget customization.

  • View example next to each widget type now opens a preview of the button or embedded form.

  • The Agreement checkbox label field shows five lines, so longer text is easier to edit.

  • If the scheduling form can't be saved, you now see the exact reason instead of a general "Error".

  • The button color and Corner radius fields are sized to fit their content.
