LiveQue Changelog

Every update to LiveQue, newest first. Built by Isaac & Glen Irvin. New = features, Improved = made better, Fixed = bugs squashed.

v6.9.45 Getting ready for real money

RemovedVenmo, Zelle and Cash App are gone as tip options, and they are not coming back. Venmo's own rules prohibit personal accounts from accepting business payments, so a performer following our old advice risked having their funds frozen. Zelle has no developer path and gives your fans no purchase protection. Card, Apple Pay and Google Pay only, all through Stripe, all landing in your own bank.
FixedFinishing Stripe setup now actually sticks. The last step used to send you back to an old address for the site, where you arrived signed out. Setup completed at Stripe's end, but we never heard about it, so your tip buttons stayed off with nothing to tell you why. If you set up payouts and fans still could not tip you, this was why.
FixedYou get marked ready the moment Stripe approves you, instead of only when you next open the dashboard.
ImprovedSharing looks like something now. Links you send get a proper title, description and image instead of a bare URL, and the site has a real icon in your browser tab.
SecurityOld versions of the app were still reachable on the site. They are closed off. No passwords or payment keys were ever in them. We checked before writing this.

v6.9.44 Legal cover, and a fairer split

NewTerms of Service and a Privacy Policy, at /terms.html and /privacy.html, plus an agree checkbox at signup.
FixedThe tip maths now matches what we publish. Every page says a $5 tip leaves you $4.55. The code was handing over the full $5 and quietly billing us the card fee. It now does exactly what the pricing says, on every amount.
ImprovedShare buttons in three places: your gig link, a fan's share after tipping, and the front page.
FixedPhone layout on the about section, and eight controls that were too small to tap, including the rating stars, which get tapped one-handed in a dark room.

v6.9.25 Printable handbook

NewA one-page Performer Handbook at /handbook.html. The whole thing (set up, run a gig, what fans see, after the gig, cheat sheet, troubleshooting) on a single page, styled to print cleanly in black and white.

v6.9.24 Forgot your password?

NewPassword reset. A "Forgot your password?" link on the sign-in screen emails you a secure reset link; opening it brings up a "set a new password" screen and signs you right back in.
FixedAuth links pointed at localhost. The project's Site URL was still the out-of-the-box default (localhost:3000) with no allowed redirects, which would have sent every password-reset link to a dead address. Now pointed at getliveque.com.

v6.9.23 Email goes live + this page

NewThis Changelog page, every version and what changed.
NewTransactional email wired end to end: a welcome/intro email on sign-up and a per-gig recap email, sending through Resend on your own getliveque.com domain (DKIM, SPF, DMARC configured).

v6.9.22 Your Gigs history

NewA "Your Gigs" card on Setup lists every past gig: gig number, date, set length, tips total & count, songs played, requests, rating, and the crowd favorite.

v6.9.21 End the night cleanly

NewAn explicit "End Gig" button that emails your recap and saves the gig.
NewDurable gig capture. Every gig's final numbers are saved permanently, even after the queue clears.
ImprovedStarting a new gig no longer emails a recap; it now silently saves the gig that just ended, so no gig is ever lost.

v6.9.20 Performer Guide

NewA full how-to Performer Guide: quick start, adding songs, getting paid, running a gig, recaps, and an FAQ, linked from your dashboard.

v6.9.19 Recaps that find you

NewA server-side recap sweeper: your gig recap emails itself after the gig goes quiet, even if your dashboard is closed.

v6.9.18 Recap timing

ImprovedThe auto-recap now waits for 6 hours of no new requests, so it can never fire in the middle of your set.

v6.9.17 Tell us what you think

v6.9.16 Gig recap email

NewAfter your gig, an emailed recap: tips collected, songs played, requests, set length, top song, and ratings.

v6.9.15 Tip anywhere, rate anytime

NewVenmo / PayPal / Cash App / Zelle appeared inside the song request. Since removed. See v6.9.45. Venmo prohibits personal accounts from accepting business payments, and following this advice risked getting a performer's funds frozen.
NewA "Rate the show" prompt appears right after a fan tips.
NewBulk song import: paste a list (or drop a .csv) and add 30+ songs at once.

v6.9.14 Silent celebration

NewPaid tips set off a musical confetti burst (with music notes) on both your screen and the fan's.
RemovedThe tip chime. Live musicians don't want dings mid-song, so the celebration is now purely visual.
FixedThe "Live" gig timer no longer resets to "just started" every time the page is refreshed.

v6.9.13 Audience ratings

NewFans can rate your show (1–5 stars + an optional note); your average and recent notes show up on Setup.

v6.9.12 Never miss a tip

NewPaid tips pop a notification on your dashboard so you catch every one (made silent + visual in v6.9.14).

v6.9.11 Launch-ready overhaul Major

NewWallets-first checkout: Apple Pay, Google Pay, and card, made grandma-easy.
NewA premium redesign of the sign-in / create-account screen.
NewA first-run onboarding wizard that spells out "connect Stripe to get paid."
NewYour live site went custom-domain: getliveque.com.
NewTip buttons only appear once your Stripe is ready to charge. No broken payments.
NewA post-payment "pending" state so a tipped song shows up immediately.
ImprovedRemoved the Stripe Link wallet from checkout. No login wall, just tap or type a card.
ImprovedThe QR code always points at your live page on the right domain.
SecurityAll fan- and performer-entered text is escaped at render (cross-site-scripting proofed).
FixedClosed a fake-tip hole. Fans can only add free, queued requests; real tips come only through Stripe's verified webhook.
FixedPaid and free requests were invisible on accounts with no active gig session. Now they always show.

v6.9.10 Webhook-only paid requests

ImprovedPaid requests are created only by Stripe's verified webhook, for tighter integrity.

v6.9.9 In-app Stripe tips

v6.9.8 Stripe Connect onboarding

v6.9.7 Spotify import
