Release Notes - 6 October 2026

This article provides an overview of the features / updates the product development team have delivered in the 6th of October 2026 release.


Rosterfy Listen: Your Ideas Delivered 🗣️

Rosterfy Listen is a space inside your dashboard dedicated to listening to your feedback. This new tool gives you a direct way to tell us about your experiences using Rosterfy, see the product concepts we are exploring, and vote on the features and improvements you want to see most. The following features listed were built based on your feedback.

Show Password Toggle

You can now toggle password visibility on the login screen by clicking the new eye icon inside the password field. This lets you temporarily reveal what you’ve typed to quickly catch typos and confirm your password is correct before submitting.


Role Offer ID and Event ID Now Available as Merge Tags

Email and notification template editors now support Role Offer ID and Event ID merge tags. Use these tags to create targeted links directly to specific role offers or Events in your User communications. The merge tags appear as:

  • role_offer_id

  • event_id


Search Added to Group Dropdowns

Grouped single-select fields in dropdown menus now support full text search. Type to filter options or group names directly, view bold group headings with indented choices, and enjoy cleaner fields with long text automatically trimmed.


What's Coming: Events and Shifts 👀

We are rolling out major upgrades to how you create, manage, and maintain your Events and Shifts. These updates focus on preventing accidental data loss, making the Events and Shifts interface cleaner, and introducing smart conflict resolution when multiple admins are working together.

Automatic Drafts and Autosave

Background autosaving continuously captures your progress as you work. If you leave a page before saving, your unsubmitted changes are stored as a draft to prevent accidental data loss.


Collaborative Edit Reviews

When multiple team members make changes to the same draft Event or Shift, you can preview every update in real time and choose whether to accept or reject specific edits before finalising.


Streamlined Field and Setting Controls

Tooltip icons have been replaced with inline help text placed directly underneath each field for quick context. Related configurations are now grouped logically to keep relevant settings together, and checkbox controls have replaced many former dropdowns for faster adjustments


Recommended Next Steps:

To help your team prepare for the upcoming changes, we recommend taking these steps once the update goes live:

  • Update internal processes: Document the new draft review steps in your team's standard operating procedures so all admins follow the same workflow.

  • When the update goes live: Identify your high-collaboration Events and Shifts to establish a clear review workflow for your team.

  • Test the live draft feature once available: Partner with a co-admin on a test draft to practice accepting and rejecting changes together.

  • Establish review protocols: Decide which admins will have final approval to accept or reject edits on shared draft Shifts once the rollout is complete.
