SiteBuilder release notes

We released SiteBuilder 2.498 on Monday 21^st March 2022. In this version:

• You can now add centred images to your Components Editor page. When adding an image to your page, select Centred from the Position dropdown, near the bottom of the Image dialog.
• It is no longer possible to delete the content placeholder from page templates in the Components Editor. Previously, it was possible to remove this which resulted in deleting the form content, for example, from pages which use that template.
• We fixed a bug which meant that it wasn't always possible to add a new line above the topmost component when editing a Components Editor page.
• We made an improvement to the label displayed in the Components Editor when you add a language to some content. You can do this by selecting Add text & formatting from the left-hand menu, and selecting Set language if it changes in the page from the sub-menu.
• We fixed a bug which caused the Components Editor to strip out some empty HTML tags when publishing a page. This bug was reported at the most recent SiteBuilder User Group.
• Following feedback at the User Group, we've made a change to ensure that browsers' spell checkers aren't prevented from working when editing a page.
• Custom HTML components are no longer editable without first selecting them. To edit a Custom HTML component, select the component and then select Settings from the toolbar.
• It's now possible to apply custom classes to block styles. When editing a block, select Style from the toolbar - you'll see a field labelled Custom block class, where you can enter the class name which you've used in the page head itself, or in any CSS files you've linked to in the page head. Select Apply to add the class to this block.
• We fixed a bug which meant that the names of webgroup members were not displayed on the Edit Permissions screen.
• We fixed a bug which meant that Font Awesome brand icons were not converted when converting a page to the Components Editor.
