SiteBuilder release notes

We released SiteBuilder 2.519 on Wednesday 12^th October 2022. In this version we:

• Fixed a bug that produced an error when trying to view a webgroup's member list when editing page permissions.
• Continued to work on the new Bookings page template. When this is available, we'll provide a detailed summary of the changes on the SiteBuilder noticeboard.

We released SiteBuilder 2.518 on Thursday 6^th October 2022. In this version:

• We released a new version of the Resource Bookings page template, which replaces the previous version. The new version includes:
  • Accessibility improvements to make it easier for users browsing using assistive technologies, such as screen readers, and users browsing using only a keyboard.
  • Improved display on small screens, such as mobile devices.
  • Easier identification and management of repeated periods of unavailability for editors.
• We fixed some bugs affecting dialogs in SiteBuilder forms, including an issue which prevented users from adding or editing form data sets, and also some problems which affected how those dialogs displayed to form editors (including users in Safari).
• We fixed a bug which prevented users from being able to overwrite files, when selecting to keep the properties of the original file(s).

N.B. Since releasing this change we temporarily restored the previous version of Resource Bookings while investigating some issues. We will re-enable the new version as soon as possible, and provide a more detailed summary of the changes in an upcoming noticeboard post.

We released SiteBuilder 2.517 on Monday 26^th September 2022. In this version we:

• Fixed an issue where the content of some page templates remained available to assistive technologies when a pop-up was displayed, which could cause confusion for users of screenreaders, for example.
• Added keyboard controls for sortable list questions to improve accessibility on Quiz pages.
• Fixed a bug that caused event lists to stop working after converting a page to the Components Editor if the linked calendar was using an absolute URL.
• Solved an issue that produced an error message when attempting to delete forwarding pages.

We also released the 2.516.1 hotfix on Tuesday 20^th September 2022, in which we:

• Fixed an issue where editing a Custom HTML component in the Components Editor unintentionally removed existing script tags.
• Fixed a bug that prevented users from viewing content when one Tab component was placed inside another on a Components Editor page.
• Updated the default text appended to privacy notices on forms.

We released SiteBuilder 2.516 on Wednesday 7^th September 2022. In this version we made the following bug fixes and improvements:

• We fixed a bug so that floated images now display as expected both in the Components Editor and on your published page.
• We fixed a bug which prevented converting pages that use the right hand content from another page. Please note that after conversion, if the content on the source page changes, the page you are on now will not automatically update. To achieve the same thing in the Components Editor:
  • Create a Components Editor page containing just the content from the right-hand side of the source page
  • Edit the page you are on now and add a Content feed from another page component (via the left-hand menu), setting its source page to the page you created above
• We fixed a bug which prevented users from checking for broken links on a set of pages.
• When a contents list displays multiple pages of results, it is now possible to sort the results. This sort order is persisted when browsing to the next/previous page. Previously, it was only possible to sort the results when displayed on a single page.
• When you use the Copy page contents feature on a page that's based on a page template, such as Glossary, News or Calendar, the target page is now converted to the corresponding page template and all your entries, such as glossary definitions, news items and events, are copied across. Previously, only the surrounding content of such pages was copied. Note that for pages based on templates which receive user data, such as Form or Bookings, this user data is not copied.
• We continued work which will enable complex pages such as homepage layouts to be converted to the Components Editor.

We released SiteBuilder 2.515 on Thursday 4^th August 2022. In this version we made the following bug fixes and improvements:

• We improved the validation message displayed to make it clearer when a researcher profile can't be fetched from Ideate. You can add a researcher profile component to your page by selecting Add special features from the left-hand menu and selecting Researcher profile from the sub-menu.
• We improved how hero blocks and their text are displayed on smaller screens, such as mobile devices. You can add a hero block to your page by selecting Add layout blocks from the left-hand menu and selecting the Hero block option from the sub-menu.
• We fixed a bug which caused glossary terms to inherit the text colour of the container. You can add a glossary term to your page by selecting Add links and anchors from the left-hand menu and selecting Glossary term link from the sub-menu. You'll then be able to select the appropriate Glossary page and the specific Term you'd like to add to your page.
• We fixed a bug which prevented users from uploading files which contained certain special characters in the filename.
• We fixed a bug so that the site content report only displays accessibility audit data for HTML pages. We introduced these columns to the site content report in 2.514.
