SiteBuilder release notes

We released SiteBuilder 2.493 on Monday 7^th February 2022. In this version we made bug fixes and improvements to the Components Editor, including:

• We made the module page template available in the Components Editor.
• It is now possible to make vertically arranged buttons stretch to fit the full height of their containing block. This makes it easier to keep elements of your page layout aligned with each other.
• It's now possible to delete a block layout from your page but retain its contents. You can do this by selecting Keep contents when you select to delete your block layout component. Your content is retained but is no longer inside the original columns. If you no longer need this content, select Delete contents to remove the block layout completely.
• We improved the resource booking page template for users navigating using only a keyboard. It's now possible to navigate between a page's resources by using the tab key, in the 4-day and Week views. This also applies to resource booking pages in the old visual editor.
• We added a class to the icon which appears next to links that open in a new window. This is to ensure the content is accessible to users who are using assistive technologies. Previously, the icon may have been ignored by some screen readers.
• We fixed a bug which caused the content of a news feed to appear empty when viewing previous versions of a page.
• We fixed a bug which caused inconsistent behaviour when creating and editing lists.
• We fixed a bug which meant that using the Undo and Redo buttons resulted in scrolling to the top of the page in the editor.
• We fixed a bug where news feeds did not always display the required number of items after converting the page to the Components Editor.
