Roundup: Instantly add media to your Studio canvas

We’ve added a new Media shortcut to the Studio Editor, so you can get instant access to the Media Manager and find the content you need in fewer clicks.

Plus, you can now send Wix Forms submissions to an inbox with Automations.

And we’ve got Studio Hours next week and Open Studio coming up soon.

    We heard you - and I’m excited to share more updates we’ve recently added to the new Wix Forms. :tada:

    First up… (I know it’s been one of your biggest feature requests :wink:)

    For EN accounts, you can now set up automatons so that form responses go directly to a site’s inbox :partying_face:

    We’ve also added:

    • Create and edit forms in the Owner app
    • Add a signature field for site visitors to sign electronically
    • Drag to resize a field, and any fields next to it will change size to fit
    • Search within your list of form submissions
    • Add payment fields from your form settings
    • Stop adding a submit button every time you create a form - it’ll now be there automatically

I am honestly disappointed with the overall slow pace of innovation from Wix and contemplating leaving - we’re currently looking at other options. Have you guys seen how far Shopify has come, they have rolled out innovation after innovation.

Whereas with Wix

  1. it has failed to give us a headless experience and let us port our data, content and campaigns as we upgrade our website every other year and have to start from scratch each time.
  2. The ‘blocks’ are abysmal - what happened? They arn’t even all that well designed. Why was this experience not prioritised and built up with more and better blocks and more features?
  3. Finally your templates - only 10 or 12 in Studio while the rest of the platform uses templates that are 7-10 years old - why are they still there? Nothing new has been introduced. Studio should have had at least 50 great templates by now if not a 100.

I could go on and on but whats the use?

Hey @sandeep39199!

Ultimately, you need to make a decision that works best for you and your clients. That being said, I’d like to share a couple of links that should help.

  1. First up, Wix offers a Headless solution (Wix Headless) for you to connect your Wix business solutions to any tech stack. If this isn’t quite what you’re looking for, I’d love to hear more and will share it with the team :muscle: (I’m guessing you’re maybe looking to move your site dashboard between editors?)
  2. Wix Blocks are continually receiving updates and new features - and there are plenty of successful app developers who have live Blocks Apps in the App Market. On top of that, you’ll find Wix Blocks being used in various Wix Apps (like Wix Portfolio, the Wix Stores Product Page and more) Again, if there’s anything in particular you’d like to see, feel free to share :slight_smile:
  3. There are many more than 10-12 templates for Studio. In fact, just this week, we introduced an additional 19 templates with more being worked on currently - All Responsive Templates | Wix Studio. We also introduced the Template Marketplace (currently open to US and Canada) for the community to submit and sell their Studio templates.

If there’s anything else I can help with - let me know :slight_smile:
