September 2024 Changelog

September 2024 Changelog

September 2024 focused on user macros, WordPress posting reliability, and the Article Creator editing surface. SCM added a new user macro UI, repaired several post uploader image issues, and improved table and dark-theme readability.

The result was a cleaner bridge between generated content, user-defined AI variables, and WordPress output.

Who this update helps

  • Users building reusable AI macros for Article Creator.
  • Users uploading generated content to WordPress.
  • Users inserting HTML, images, and generated columns into content workflows.
  • Users working in dark theme for long editing sessions.

User macro editing improved

SCM made user AI macros easier to create, edit, and keep visible.

  • A new Article Creator user macro UI was added.
  • Deleting a macro no longer leaves visual gaps in the text area.
  • The macro list can scroll without hiding the add button.
  • AI macro workflows became easier to build into content templates.

WordPress posting became safer

September fixed media and upload issues around generated articles.

  • Post uploader no longer crashes on relative image tags.
  • WordPress posting with AI images became part of the product story.
  • Multiple category and media workflows had supporting tutorial content around this period.

Content insertion and webhooks became clearer

SCM improved the small controls that support content assembly.

  • A tooltip was added for insert HTML.
  • Webhook placeholders and tutorial links were added.
  • Find and replace workflows became easier to discover.

Tables and dark theme became easier to read

The interface got several readability improvements for heavier table work.

  • Dark table row colors were rebalanced for contrast.
  • Non-selectable table rows no longer use misleading rollover highlights.
  • Text area borders and controls were adjusted for better visibility.
