Let’s go through what we got done in **November 2025** in NeetoChat.

### **New features ✨**

#### Workflow-aware widget reply box

In workflow-based chats, the widget now hides the reply section when a workflow expects a customer response within the flow. This helps prevent customers from replying outside the intended path and breaking the workflow logic.

#### Reorder automation rules

You can now reorder automation rules to control their execution order — giving you finer control over how rules behave in different scenarios.

#### Bulk view actions + customization

Views now support **bulk actions** , and you can choose to **enable or disable conversation counts** per view, allowing cleaner views.

#### Incoming Slack message logging

All incoming Slack messages are now logged in the database. This ensures message syncs are reliable — retrying if needed — and no message gets lost.

### **Enhancements ✨**

#### Background queues reprioritization

We reviewed and adjusted the priority of background job queues, so automation rules and other chat operations run in a more predictable and efficient order.

#### Reply timezone accuracy

“Mentioned in a comment” email notifications now use the **receiver’s timezone** for timestamps, improving clarity for global teams.

### **Bug fixes 🛠️**

#### Workflow stability

- Fixed duplicate nodes being created during workflow updates

- Fixed incorrect node connections when workflows were cloned

- Fixed Save changes not working reliably in workflow forms

#### Slack sync improvements

- Fixed an issue where failed Slack API calls would **skip messages forever** — they now retry

- Fixed a bug where **Slack messages with embedded help articles** didn’t show up properly

- Fixed messages from Slack **not syncing** due to a webhook path issue

#### Chat UI and data handling

- Fixed an issue where **incoming messages briefly appeared in the wrong conversation** when multiple chats were open

- Fixed **visitor uniqueness errors** caused by rapid-fire requests from the same visitor

- Ensured **custom widget icons and reply box settings** behave consistently

- Fixed a bug where the **chat widget preview** mistakenly showed up in the admin inbox

#### View management bugs

- Fixed an issue where the **default Unresolved view** could be disabled

- Fixed caching issues causing incorrect **view ticket counts**
