2nd release that day
A correctness release. The headline fix: packages whose booking window had closed were still on sale.
Packages: only what's really available
- Expired packages are no longer sold. A package's booking window used to be decorative — nothing ever closed it, so a package whose delivery window ended in April was still sitting in the marketplace, and could still be bought. Buyers now only see packages that can actually be delivered, and an expired one can't be purchased even from a direct link.
- You can see what's available at a glance. Cards now lead with what's still buyable — "18 left", "Available", or "Sold out" — plus the date the window closes, instead of only telling you how many had already sold. The list view's "Sold" column became Available.
- You can see who's selling. Every package now shows "by <seller>" on the card and a Seller column in the list, so you don't have to open a package to find out whose it is.
- Packages can open in the future. A package with a start date now shows "Starts 20 Aug" and can be booked ahead — previously the start date was stored but ignored.
- Sellers can see the truth about their own packages. An expired package used to show a green "Listed" to its owner while being invisible to every buyer. It now reads "Expired", and publishing into a window that has already closed is refused with a clear "extend the dates first" instead of quietly going nowhere.
Deals: filter by the period you care about
- A date-range dropdown on Marketplace › Deals — Last 7 days, Last 30 days, Last 90 days, This month, Last month, This quarter, This year, All time, plus a custom range. And it now actually filters: the date pickers on that page had never been wired up to anything.
Briefs: show your work, and stop losing track of applications
- Creators can attach sample work to a bid. Bidding on an advertiser's open brief used to be a price and a paragraph. You can now attach samples (up to 10 files) so the advertiser can judge the work, not just the pitch — and advertisers see each bid's samples as openable chips next to the price.
- "Campaign not available" is gone. Opening your own application after the advertiser closed the campaign — or after the deadline passed, or the slots filled — used to show an error that read like the platform had lost your application. You now see the campaign with a clear note explaining it's closed and that your application is unaffected.
- Back buttons go back where you came from. Opening a campaign from My Applications, or a package from My Packages, now returns you to that list instead of dumping you on a different one.
