New Features
Secure S3-Compatible Storage
Disciple.Tools now includes support for S3-compatible object storage directly in the theme, moving it from a separate plugin. This allows for secure, private storage of media like profile pictures, images comments, and voice messages. Peruse setup instructions.
New Feature: Voice Messages
We’re excited to launch a brand-new way to quickly add comments in Disciple.Tools while still maintaining security-voice message recording in the comments section!
Now you can speak updates, quickly and securely using your voice. It's perfect for those moments when typing just doesn’t cut it.
✅ Just click to “start recording”
✅ Speak your message
✅ Click “save recording” and you’re done!
Need to make a change? Simply cancel and re-record.
Whether you’re on the go, processing a lot of updates, or just don’t want to type out a long message, this new feature helps you stay updated more efficiently. Give it a try today!
New Feature: Picture Comments
We’re also thrilled to introduce a new way to add even more context to your updates—photo comments, now available in Disciple.Tools!
Just like adding a photo on social media, you can now upload pictures directly into the comments section—but with the added benefit of enhanced security tailored for sensitive work.
Ever met more than one person with the same name? Snapped a photo of your new contact from Zambodia? Our current feature already lets you securely upload a photo as their avatar, and now you can also attach a picture to your comments helping you remember how you met, what they look like, or where the conversation took place.
✅ Add visual context
✅ Stay organized
✅ Maintain privacy
Try it out today—and bring your updates to life with a visual touch!
