# Help and announcements

> The bottom of the Stay in the loop column carries Aftersell feature announcements, occasional messages from the team, and the Help card linking to support, docs, and case studies.

The lower part of the **Stay in the loop** column carries anything Aftersell wants to tell you, plus the ways to get help.

## Feature announcements

When there is something new, an announcement card appears with a badge showing what kind of update it is:

* **Feature release** — something new you can now use
* **Feature update** — a change to something you already have

Each card explains the feature and offers an action to set it up. Dismiss it with the **X** if it is not relevant to you.

If several announcements are waiting, dismissing one moves the next into its place, so the card stays in a single slot rather than stacking up the column.

Dismissing an announcement only affects your own view — it does not change anything about your store, and it will not come back.

## Messages from the team

Occasionally Aftersell sends a direct message about your specific store, which appears in the same column above the announcements. These are not marketing — they are usually about your account or setup, so they are worth reading.

## Help

The **Help** card is always present at the bottom of the column:
