      <description>Every portfolio just got a wider layout and a 2×2 case study grid. The new view was rebuilt around how hiring managers actually consume case studies. Plus drag-to-reorder, inline section editing, and a full WCAG accessibility pass - all on the new home of the Prodfolio changelog.</description>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The biggest release we've shipped since launch — and the first one publishing on our new changelog at <a href="/changelog">prodfolio.io/changelog</a>. Two big themes: every portfolio just got a visual upgrade, and case studies now read like a story instead of a form.</p>

<hr>

<h2>✨ What's new</h2>

<h3><strong>📐 A sharper portfolio layout</strong></h3>

<p>Every portfolio on Prodfolio just got a visual upgrade — no action required from you.</p>

<p><strong>What changed:</strong></p>

<ul>
<li><p>2×2 case study grid with pagination — recruiters see four projects at a glance instead of sliding through pairs</p></li>
<li><p>Compact "Beyond Work" cards that scan faster without losing personality</p></li>
<li><p>Cleaner transitions between sections — softer, less boxed-in</p></li>
</ul>

<img src="/changelog/sharper-portfolio-layout-case-study-redesign/img-1.png" alt="New 2×2 case study grid layout" loading="lazy">

<p><strong>Why this matters:</strong> Hiring managers skim before they read. More of your work, visible faster, on the first scroll.</p>

<h3><strong>📖 Case studies that read like a story</strong></h3>

<p>The case study reader was rebuilt around how hiring managers actually consume them.</p>

<ul>
<li><p>Decision Loop expanded by default — no more "click to reveal" friction</p></li>
<li><p>New narrative order: Context → Approach → Metrics → Results → Skills</p></li>
<li><p>Audience-friendly phase labels (written for hiring managers, not PMs)</p></li>
<li><p>Reading progress bar + a floating Get in Touch link that follows the reader down the page</p></li>
<li><p>Full-width images for single visuals so screenshots actually breathe</p></li>
</ul>

<img src="/changelog/sharper-portfolio-layout-case-study-redesign/img-2.png" alt="Case study reader with full-width images and reading progress" loading="lazy">

<p><strong>Why this matters:</strong> Your strongest case study should feel like a great story — a clear arc, the punchline visible, an obvious next step. Now it does.</p>

<hr>

<h2>⚡ Improvements</h2>

<h3><strong>🛠️ Builder upgrades you've been asking for</strong></h3>

<ul>
<li><p><strong>Drag to reorder Experience entries</strong> - a fix for "I have two current roles and the order is wrong"</p></li>
<li><p><strong>"Not sure what counts?" reassurance</strong> in the case study modal — internal tools, side projects, and coursework all count</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Helper copy for product philosophy</strong> — with a link to the writing guide for anyone tackling it for the first time</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Living document framing</strong> in the builder to relieve the "must be perfect before publishing" pressure</p></li>
</ul>

<h3><strong>🎬 Richer media</strong></h3>

<ul>
<li><p>YouTube Shorts now embed correctly in case studies</p></li>
<li><p>Media uploads work on already-published portfolios (this was a top-reported bug — thank you for flagging)</p></li>
</ul>

<h3><strong>🧭 Help &amp; Support, finally in one spot</strong></h3>

<p>We replaced the flat Help Center link in the sidebar with a real Help &amp; Support menu:</p>

<ul>
<li><p><strong>Help Center</strong> → <a href="https://help.prodfolio.io" target="_blank" rel="noopener">help.prodfolio.io</a> with how-tos and writing guides</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Contact Support</strong> → email us directly</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Share Feedback</strong> → tell us what to build next</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Changelog</strong> → <a href="/changelog">prodfolio.io/changelog</a> with everything we've shipped</p></li>
</ul>

<h3><strong>♿ Accessibility, baked in</strong></h3>

<p>We completed a full WCAG 2.1/2.2 audit and remediation across the app — labels, contrast, focus management, ARIA, touch targets. Every portfolio is now more accessible to every recruiter who opens it, including those using screen readers, keyboard navigation, or assistive tech.</p>

<hr>

<h2>🐛 Bug fixes</h2>

<ul>
<li><p><strong>GitHub link now persists</strong> when you reopen the editor (it was saving but disappearing from the form — fixed)</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Theme presets</strong> now apply correctly in full preview</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Magic links from "Request Access"</strong> now deep-link to the specific case study you requested</p></li>
<li><p><strong>OG meta tags</strong> now render correctly when portfolios are shared on Slack, LinkedIn, and other platforms</p></li>
<li><p>Sidebar is always openable in the builder</p></li>
</ul>

<hr>

<h2>🔮 Coming next</h2>

<p>We're heads-down on a few big bets for the next release:</p>

<ul>
<li><p>More recruiter-first signals surfaced on the portfolio (metrics, impact, outcomes)</p></li>
<li><p>Continued builder simplification based on your walkthroughs</p></li>
<li><p>Better tracking for ongoing work</p></li>
</ul>

<hr>

<h2>🆕 The changelog has a new home</h2>

<p>You're reading this on the new <a href="/changelog">prodfolio.io/changelog</a>. Until today, our release notes lived on a third-party feedback tool. They worked, but they didn't build anything for the people most likely to care: customers comparing Prodfolio to alternatives, and search engines (or AI assistants) trying to answer "what's new in Prodfolio." Hosting our release history on our own domain fixes both.</p>

<ul>
<li><p><strong>Stable URLs.</strong> Every release now lives at <code>/changelog/your-update-here</code> — easy to link in support tickets, sales calls, and social.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Full content + screenshots</strong> instead of summaries hidden behind a third-party widget.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Filter by what you care about</strong> — New, Improved, or Fixed.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>RSS feed</strong> at <a href="/changelog/rss.xml">/changelog/rss.xml</a> for anyone who wants updates in their reader of choice.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Full backfill.</strong> Every release from launch through April is here, with original dates and screenshots.</p></li>
</ul>

<p>Feature requests still live on our <a href="https://tally.so/r/XxJM8O" target="_blank" rel="noopener">feedback board</a> — we read every submission.</p>

<h2>👥 Community</h2>

<p>We're still on Reddit at <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/Prodfolio" target="_blank" rel="noopener">r/Prodfolio</a> — share your portfolio, swap feedback, and connect with other PMs.</p>

<p>We're also opening up our Slack to anyone currently using Prodfolio. We're in the beginning stages of what that will look like, but one of our largest pieces of feedback is that our users are looking for more peer to peer collaboration on building. So if you want to join, <a href="https://join.slack.com/t/prodfolio/shared_invite/zt-3yav2bel3-76izAxeMgslZZcdOmNy2sw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">click here</a>.</p>

There, we've had zero visibility.</p><p>Not anymore.</p><h2>✨ What's New</h2><h3>📊 Analytics Dashboard</h3><p>Finally see what's happening with your portfolio. No more publishing into the void.</p><p><strong>What you can track:</strong></p><ul><li><p><strong>Total views with trends</strong>: See if your portfolio is gaining traction week-over-week</p></li><li><p><strong>Case study rankings</strong>: Know which projects resonate most, so you lead with your strongest work</p></li><li><p><strong>Visitor actions</strong>: Resume downloads, email clicks, LinkedIn visits, video plays. Every signal that someone's looking deeper</p></li><li><p><strong>Traffic sources</strong>: LinkedIn? Direct link? Other referrers? Know where to focus your outreach</p></li><li><p><strong>Multi-portfolio comparison</strong>: If you have more than one portfolio, see which is your "Most Popular." This is great for trying portfolios against one another.</p></li></ul><p><strong>Why this matters for your job search:</strong></p><p>You can now see that your "User Research" case study gets 58% of views, and lead with that in your next interview. Or notice that nobody's clicking your highlighted side project, allowing you to think differently about how you position yourself.</p><p>This is the feedback loop PMs have been missing - so share your portfolio today to start tracking views. ✨&nbsp;</p><img src="/changelog/analytics-dashboard-launch/img-1.png" alt="" loading="lazy"><blockquote class="callout"><p style="text-align: center">🎁 Analytics are free through March 1st while we refine them <a target="" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="link" href="https://tally.so/r/XxJM8O">based on your feedback.</a> After that, they'll be part of Pro!</p></blockquote><p>We also have a <a target="" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="link" href="https://sugared-cactus-5d5.notion.site/Analytics-Dashboard-2e1f7107577781368840d95180b88665">help article to reference here.</a></p><hr><h3>✏️ Rich Text Editor</h3><p>Your case studies now have real formatting, no more plain text walls.</p><p><strong>What you can do:</strong></p><ul><li><p>Bold, italic, underline, and headings to structure your narrative</p></li><li><p>Bullet and numbered lists for easy scanning</p></li><li><p>Links with automatic https handling</p></li></ul><p>Available in all SIGNAL sections.

Now you can embed those videos directly.</p><ul><li><p>Custom thumbnail uploads so you control what viewers see first</p></li><li><p>Videos open in new tab for better viewing experience</p></li></ul><hr><h3>✨ Builder Improvements</h3><ul><li><p><strong>Customization got cleaner</strong></p><ul><li><p>Split the Customization section into separate <strong>Theme</strong> and <strong>Domain</strong> tabs - less scrolling, easier to find what you need</p></li></ul></li><li><p><strong>Case studies are more flexible</strong></p><ul><li><p>Summary character limit increased from 140 to 200 characters - more room to hook readers</p></li><li><p>Titles are now wrapped - easier to view before you click</p></li></ul></li><li><p><strong>Auth got easier</strong></p><ul><li><p>Password visibility toggle on login and signup forms - no more guessing if you typed it right</p></li></ul></li></ul><hr><h2>🐛 Bug Fixes</h2><blockquote><p><strong>Key Metrics section removed:&nbsp;</strong>This feature was causing more confusion than clarity, so we've sunset it. <br><br>For now, add your metrics directly in the Achievement section - bullet points with specific numbers work great.

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We heard this one a lot: "I have great projects I'm working on, but my portfolio only shows completed work."</p><p>Not anymore.</p><h2>✨ What's New</h2><h3>💻 Active Projects</h3><p>You can now add case studies for projects you're still working on — not just the ones you've shipped.</p><p>Here's why this matters for your job search:</p><ul><li><p><strong>Show momentum, not just history.</strong> Hiring managers want to see how you think <em>right now</em>. Building a side project with Cursor or Lovable? That's portfolio-worthy, even before it's done.</p></li><li><p><strong>Less pressure to have "perfect" case studies.</strong> Mark a project as Active, fill in what you know, and publish it. You can update it as the project evolves.</p></li><li><p><strong>Only the Situation section is required.</strong> We relaxed the validation so you can get something live without waiting for outcomes.</p></li></ul><img src="/changelog/active-projects-work-in-progress/img-1.png" alt="" loading="lazy"><p>Active Projects show up with an amber badge so viewers know you're still building. Real work in progress still shows credibility, whether you're job searching or actively employed. <em>(See below)</em></p><img src="/changelog/active-projects-work-in-progress/img-2.png" alt="" loading="lazy"><hr><h3>📃 Case study templates are now available</h3><p>Now that we’ve done a bit more testing, everyone can access our templates:</p><ul><li><p>Product Launch</p></li><li><p>Optimization</p></li><li><p>Research</p></li><li><p>Infrastructure Improvements </p></li></ul><p>If you've been staring at a blank page, start with a template. </p><blockquote class="callout"><p style="text-align: center">We'd love to hear feedback on templates you'd like to see next!</p></blockquote><hr><h3>✨ Builder improvements</h3><p>We cleaned up the case study builder to make it easier to focus on your story:</p><ul><li><p><strong>New Overview step</strong> separates your title, summary, and skills from the SIGNAL storytelling sections. Less mental juggling.</p></li></ul><img src="/changelog/active-projects-work-in-progress/img-3.png" alt="" loading="lazy"><ul><li><p><strong>Quick-select suggestions</strong> for common PM skills (User Research, A/B Testing, Roadmapping) and tools (Figma, Jira, Amplitude). One click to add.</p><p></p><img src="/changelog/active-projects-work-in-progress/img-4.png" alt="" loading="lazy"></li></ul><hr><h3>🔧 Other fixes and cleanup</h3><ul><li><p><strong>Timeline improvements:</strong> Your career progression now shows most recent first, and we replaced those confusing arrows with cleaner connectors.</p></li><li><p><strong>Loom thumbnails:</strong> You can now upload custom thumbnails for Loom videos. Faster load times on live portfolios, and you control what viewers see first.</p></li><li><p><strong>Smoother signup:</strong> One step instead of three. Terms of Service is now passive consent (less clicking), and marketing opt-in is optional.</p></li><li><p><strong>Builder cleanup:</strong> Case study deletion is now easier and available on all case studies. We've also cleaned up the text, removed examples for obvious cases, and added highlighting when we use AI to extract data.</p></li></ul><hr><h2>🐛 Bug Fixes</h2><ul><li><p><strong>Faster dashboard loading:</strong> Settings and portfolio pages were loading slower than they should. Fixed.</p></li></ul><hr><h2>🔮 Coming next:</h2><ul><li><p><strong>Portfolio analytics:</strong> See when hiring managers view your portfolio and which case studies they click. We're looking for 5-10 active job seekers to beta test this. Interested? Email us at <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="link" href="mailto:hello@prodfolio.io">hello@prodfolio.io</a></p></li><li><p><strong>More templates</strong> to help you get a live portfolio faster</p></li></ul><hr><h2>💜 See something broken?

No more clicking backward through months to find when you started that job in 2019.</p><hr><h2>🐛 Bug Fixes</h2><h3><strong>Images behave properly now</strong></h3><p>Fixed the issue where clicking an image in your case study would pop up behind the modal.
