SiteBuilder release notes

SiteBuilder 2.486 released

We released SiteBuilder 2.486 on Monday 15th November 2021. In this version we made bug fixes and improvements to the Components Editor:

  • We added components which enable you to:
    • insert a calendar feed
    • personalise your page with the user's name (when users are signed in)
  • We removed support for .mov files in the media component because they led to inconsistent behaviour. You're now prompted to convert .mov files to .mp4 format.
  • We removed the up / down arrows for moving inline components (those that can be added among text) because they led to positioning issues. These components can be moved by dragging and dropping or cutting and pasting.

SiteBuilder 2.482 released

We released SiteBuilder 2.482 on Friday 1st October 2021. In this version we made bug fixes and improvements to the Components Editor.

  • This release includes adding the following page templates to the Components Editor. You can select these templates on the Create new page screen, once you've selected Components Editor in the Change page template section, or by editing the page properties of an existing Components Editor page:
    • News
    • Calendar
    • Form
    • Bookings
    • Data reveal
    • Forum
    • Glossary
    • Quiz
    • Form dataset
    • Podcast

    You can then edit the surrounding content of these pages via the Components Editor, rather than the old visual editor.

  • The following components are now available for you to add via the left-hand menu when editing your page:
    • tabbed content - for presenting content on a sequence of horizontal or vertical tabs
    • data entries - for displaying entries from a data list page
  • It's now possible to insert a thumbnail image and enable viewing the full-size image in a lightbox.
  • You can indicate sections of your page content which use non-English languages.
  • We added an HTML viewer for an easy way to see the HTML of your page.
  • We added support for attaching external files for users who want to use custom scripts or styles (e.g. .css and .js).
  • We also fixed a bug which caused some requests to the Atom API to return an error.

We'll add more functionality in future releases, and publish release notes outlining this functionality. We'll also continue to make tweaks and improvements during this beta phase.
