WOW - what a year it’s been!
2023 has been an incredible year for the Wix Community. We’ve had our highs and lows, but thanks to your feedback, thoughts, and insights, you’ve helped shape and continue to shape the future roadmap of Wix.
One thing is for certain, your passion shows through the many posts, comments, and replies you’ve created this year. Whether raising a new feature request, sharing issues you’ve encountered, or celebrating with the community when you become a Legend Level Partner, you are always with us - for that, we say thank you.
Let’s round out this year with a Roundup of everything we’ve done together.
This year you talked a lot. Like a LOT, A LOT
You created a staggering 20K+ Posts, 70K+ Replies/Comments, and used a mindblowing 80K+ Reactions.
While we might not have always had an answer to your questions, you can bet we saw it all.
We want to give a huge shoutout to the community members who contributed the most:
@plomteuxquentin @simen @dianepettipas @ann-creablu @AnthonyAllioo @codequeen @varun-dev @juliet @loeiks @wing
And there are many, many more we could include. If you’re not there, you know who you are
You helped shape the future
With a whopping 400K votes on feature requests, you helped shape the Wix Roadmap.
Talking of Roadmap, we introduced the Wix Product Roadmap in August, giving you one central place to see all feature requests and vote on your game changes. What’s more, Studio creators can submit their dream feature requests to the product teams directly.
Here’s just a small handful of the things you directly impacted:
- The addition of a global toggle for advanced sizing on elements in Studio
- We introduced the ability to manually save a Studio site based on your needs
- We increased forms limits and media limits during the creation process
- “The Insiders” worked directly with the teams to provide insights and feedback on Wix Studio
We see all the feedback you’re sharing and know there are some we haven’t managed to answer yet, but keeping it coming. You do make a difference!
Our Community is growing 
Our Community has a wealth of knowledge and knows the platform inside and out. To help facilitate easy access to all this information, this year, we undertook a large project merging our 3 forums for creators (Partners, Editor X and Velo).
We also provided new ways for our community to connect, engage, and build relationships with each other - the Studio Discord, Community Events program, and more.
Wherever your community home is, we welcomed 16K+ new accounts; many who have thrown themselves into Community life and are now regular faces and names in discussions.
We appreciate each and every one of you!
We couldn’t have done it without you
Everything we achieved this year wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible team of Community Leaders we have.
A shoutout to our @online-leader’s who help create a safe, inspiring, and encouraging environment. And to our @event-leader’s; we love seeing the events you’ve kick-started, and can’t wait to see what 2024 has in store for you all.
But, it’s been a community effort. Those who tagged us in posts, flagged topics, and guided the community - your contributions don’t go unnoticed.
In Other News
It wouldn’t be a roundup without taking a look at the news shared this week. Here. We. Go.
Workflows Discontinuation
Just a quick update - the workflows feature is being discontinued for new Wix users.
Instead, we recommend using Labels and Segments for grouping contacts who are in the same step of the customer journey. Additionally, you can use Automations to set up actions for when a contact enters of leaves a segment.
Note: Workflows still exist for the Studio Workspace and Partner Dashboard.

Dashboard pages - a new behavior
Until today, dashboard pages relied on users of the dashboard to have a site member associated with them in the members area. This presented challenges for users who didn’t need to be members, or for an agency team who were just contributors on a site.
This new change in behavior allows contributors to see and use dashboard pages without the need to be a site member. Every user with access to the site’s dashboard will be able to use the dashboard page. (Velo functionality in the dashboard page is subject to the respective permissions assigned to the user in Roles & Permissions).
