SiteBuilder 2.551 released

We released SiteBuilder 2.551 on Tuesday 8th August 2023. Updates in this version include:

  • Quiz and Forms pages: The Cancel and Publish buttons on the page properties screen now match the button styles on other page types.
  • Users with Contributor permissions can upload images in the Components Editor as intended.
  • Icons: Brand icons now display correctly in the picker when adding icons in the Components Editor.
  • Image captions on Gallery and Slideshow pages now match users' browser font size settings.
  • The Components Editor Accessibility pane no longer displays the "Page must have means to bypass repeated blocks" error message, as it is not relevant to user-editable page content.

We released SiteBuilder version 2.550 on Tuesday 25th July 2023. Changes in this update include:

SiteBuilder 2.549 released

We released SiteBuilder version 2.549 on Friday 21st July 2023. Changes in this version include:

  • Block layouts: Settings to remove gutters and set edges flush with the page now correctly apply only to the blocks immediately within the block layout instead of all nested blocks.
  • Item filter pages have received several improvements:
    • Tags now appear in alphabetical order on the Edit page properties screen.
    • Manage sections: We've added a link to this from the Editing tags page.
    • On the Manage entries page, we've changed the Back to page link to a button to improve visibility.
    • Buttons for reordering Tag sections are now correctly greyed out when they aren't applicable - for example, the "Move up" button for the entry at the top of the list.
    • [email], [slideshow] and [audio] magic tags are now supported in data entries.
  • Event feed and News feed components can be set to display only headlines while in the Tile and Tile - scrollable views.
  • The Audio/video component can now be set to auto-play and loop videos. Note that these options only apply for visitors who have not selected reduced motion in their system settings.

Note: Unexpected issues with SiteBuilder version 2.548 caused us to roll it back. We've included the changes originally released in that version in this new version.

SiteBuilder 2.547 released

SiteBuilder version 2.547 was released on Thursday 29th June 2023. With this update:

  • Resource bookings pages: It's now possible to create retrospective bookings and edit past bookings. Note that this option can be disenabled in the resource settings.
  • In the Components Editor:
    • Map links now correctly display inline in the editor. Note that inline map links were displayed correctly when the page was published - this issue only affected how they appeared in the editor.
    • Changing the selected image in an Image component now also clears any existing alternative text description. This helps ensure that alt text is accurate to the image being used.
    • News feed and Event feed components can now be displayed as Tiles - scrollable. This option allows a feed to function like a Horizontal scroller component.
    • The Buttons component now supports custom CSS classes. For more information about how to add custom styles to your page, see our HTML and CSS guidance.
