Group archiving, web page updates and smoother meetings: What's new in TidyHQ, early July 2026
We've made it easier to keep your organisation tidy, update your public pages, and get everyday committee work done with fewer interruptions.
🗃️ Archive groups without losing history
You can now archive groups you no longer use, rather than deleting them. Archived groups stay available for historical context and remain usable in Smart Groups, while being kept out of the way when sending an email or managing a contact.
Admins can view archived groups separately, bring a group back when it is needed again, and also bulk-archive groups which haven't seen activity in a year.

Groups Archive
The ability to archive groups would help us clean up our Contacts Groups List.

🌐 Remove banner images from your web pages
You can now remove the banner image from your public-facing web pages. This makes it easier to replace an outdated image or switch back to a page without a banner.
The Contact Us page also has the same sponsor block controls as the home page, so you can choose whether sponsors appear there too.
We've also added remove-image controls in more places across TidyHQ, including group and sponsor logos, social images, shop images and member profile photos.
👋 More choice when creating memberships
When an admin creates a membership, sending the new-user email is now optional. This gives you more control when adding or updating people who do not need an invitation straight away.
🎟️ A smoother path from membership to event checkout
When an event ticket requires membership, buyers are now directed to the right membership page. After joining, they can return to event checkout and continue their purchase more reliably.
We've also tidied up the earlier event checkout, including clearer sold-out and sales-ended states and better spacing around event titles and dates.
📝 Meetings: keeping tasks and people connected
Meeting minutes can once again find and link an existing task, instead of making you create a duplicate.
Assigning agenda items is clearer too: organisation roles now appear alongside individual contacts, and people with multiple roles are shown once with all their relevant roles.
Meeting invite lists now reload all invitees each time they are opened, including the chairperson and minute taker, so you can review the full recipient list before sending.
Links in meeting emails now take each person to the right view, whether they are a meeting administrator, an invited member or viewing a public meeting.
🐛 Fixes
- Project task updates are easier to scan, with message icons showing straight away and discussion notes lined up more clearly.
- Links to internal project discussion notes now take you straight to the right note.
- Contact lists can now show an Original Organisation column for directly shared contacts, making it easier to see where they came from.
- Billing history and renewal emails now make receipts easier to find, including Stripe-hosted receipts and invoices where available.
- Auto-renewal emails now work more reliably when the original payer on a membership has changed.
- Larger emails can now be saved and sent, up to the provider's 5 MB limit.
- Event pages now give clearer guidance when there are no upcoming or past events to show.
- Email preview text now displays characters such as ampersands correctly.
- GIF uploads in the content editor are working again.
- Google Analytics is now in the
<head>so Google Search Console verification is more reliable for organisations using Google Analytics on their public site.
- Membership application errors through the API now return a clear validation message.
As always, your feedback helps us choose what to improve next. Thanks for sharing what is, and is not, making committee life easier.
