Pepvote Changelog

Changelog

What we have shipped, in the order it shipped. New ways to vote, sharper results, and the small fixes that make an election day quieter.

New

A support center for every stepLink to this update

Guides for setup, voters, candidates, ballots, results, and billing.

Stuck at eleven at night before an election opens? The support center covers setup, voters, candidates, ballots, results, and billing, with screenshots, pricing answers, and search.

Pepvote also got a fresh look at the same time, across the logo, the colours, our emails, and the public site.

New

Give some members more weightLink to this update

Weighted voting, plus a nudge when a long job finishes.

Some constitutions give a branch, a category, or a life member more than one vote. Weighted voting lets a member's ballot count for more, set on import or one at a time, and carried through to the result.

Notifications also tell you when an import or export has finished and when something important happens on your event, so you are not sat watching the page.

NewImproved

Know what is left before you open votingLink to this update

A checklist that ticks itself off as you set up.

A checklist on every voting event tracks what still needs doing before you can open voting, and ticks itself off as you go.

Each table has its own settings too, so candidates, voters, positions, groups, sponsors, votes, and result reporting are set up where you manage them. Candidates and voters registering in public no longer have to type an event code either. The link already knows which event they are joining.

Improved

Reuse your last eventLink to this update

Bring candidates, positions, and voters across from a previous one.

Running the same election every year? Import it from the last one. Groups come across, you can change candidates, positions, and voters as they arrive, and you can email invites to the people you brought over.

Bad email addresses are flagged as you go and a failed email can be sent again rather than quietly lost. Clearing out a large list runs in the background, so it no longer times out on you.

New

Long ballots in manageable stepsLink to this update

Split a long ballot, and show members what to expect.

A ballot with twenty positions does not have to be one endless page. Split it into steps, and give members a public preview so they know what is coming before voting opens.

You can also ask candidates in a draft or upcoming event to upload their own photo through a link, instead of chasing files over WhatsApp.

NewImproved

Identify members the way you already doLink to this update

Matriculation numbers, staff IDs, or any code you use.

Not every organisation has an email address for every member. Voters can now be identified by a matriculation number, a staff ID, or any code you already use, and a voting links page gathers everything you need to hand out.

Signing in is protected against bots, your event timeline is checked so you cannot save an end before a start, and result breakdowns show more of the picture.

NewImproved

One home for elections, polls, and awardsLink to this update

Voting events, and groups for faculties, chapters, or departments.

Pepvote runs elections, polls, and awards, so everything you create is now a voting event rather than an election.

Group mode arrived with it. Sort voters and positions into groups such as faculties, chapters, or departments, and your results are sectioned the same way. Public registration, public results, registration windows, and choice limits landed alongside it.
