SEO Assistant
- New feature: Added SEO Assistant. This new tool helps you make your web pages more search engine friendly. The SEO Assistant scans the page for missing image descriptions, keywords, sitemap.xml/robot.txt, header tags, broken links, mobile support and more. Double clicking one of the reported issues will either open the properties (meta tags, sitemap etc) to fix the issue or select the object in the workspace.
Online tutorial: https://www.wysiwygwebbuilder.com/seo_assistant.html

Robots.txt
- New feature: Added support for 'robots.txt'. Robots.txt is a text file with instructions for search engine crawlers. It defines which areas of a website crawlers are allowed to search.
You can configure whether to allow /disallow the entire website or configure the rules for each folder individually.
Online tutorial: https://www.wysiwygwebbuilder.com/robots_txt.html

Table Of Contents
A Table Of Contents is a list of links that lead to different sections on a page. They're particularly useful for long pages, as they highlight the critical sections of a page in order to improve the reader experience.
You may know Table Of Content from websites like Wikipedia. Everytime you preview or publish the page, WYSIWYG Web builder will scan the page for heading objects (H1, H2 etc) and update the list. You can also configure the list manually.
Online tutorial: https://www.wysiwygwebbuilder.com/table ... tents.html

Lottie Animations
- Added support for Lottie animations. Display lightweight, scalable, and interactive Lottie animations on your websites.
Lottie Animations can be triggered automatically, on click, on hover or on scroll. It is also possible to animate frame by frame based on the scrollbar position (parallax).
Animations can be used as standalone element or as background / foreground in layers and layout grids.

Image Hotspots
- Improved: The 'Image Hotspots' object is now responsive. Hotspot coordinates will automatically be recalculated when the size of the image changes in a layout grid or breakpoints.

- New feature: Added the ability to import hotspots from SVG files. This can be useful for importing SVG maps, so you do not have to enter the coordinates manually.
- New feature: Sometimes the number of points may be too much for a hotspot. In that case, you can use the ‘Simply Path’ option. This will reduce the number of points in the list based on the specified epsilon value.
Online tutorial: https://www.wysiwygwebbuilder.com/imagehotspots.html

Ecommerce
- New feature: Added third party shopping cart checkout integration for Ecwid, Stripe, Snipcart, Paddle, PayPal, Gumroad and Vibracart Pro. The new ecommerce options are available in the events section. So, basically this means that any image, button, text or menu item that supports events can be turned into a checkout button for the supported Payment gateways.
Tip: For Snipcart, Vibracart Pro and Ecwid, if you leave the 'Product ID' empty then the button will act as a checkout/show cart button.
There is also a shortcut button 'Ecommerce' on the Ribbon so you can quickly add ecommerce functionality to a button, image, shape, etc.

Another benefit is that you can add (optional) support for PHP or even setup a local MySQL database server with PHPMyAdmin.
PHP, MySQL and PHPMyAdmin should be installed separately. Note that PHP, MySQL support are currently experimental and we cannot give support on the setup of these third party tools.

- New feature: Added support for the ‘slim’ version of jQuery. The 'slim' version excludes the ajax and effects modules and is approximately 17Kb smaller than the full version of jQuery. You can select the slim version if you are just using basic features like simple events (without effects) or Bootstrap based widgets.
jQuery UI widgets require the full version because they use the effects module. Also, Instagram integration uses ajax so this also require the full version. So, make sure test all the functionality of the page to make sure everything works correct with the slim version.

Themeable Button
- New feature: Added 'show checkmark' option for checkbox and radio button mode. This specifies whether the optional checkmark is displayed on the button.
- Improved: The button no longer uses jQuery and jQuery UI themes when the button type is set to normal, reset, submit or link. 'Use jQuery UI Theme' should be off.

- New feature: Added a toggle button to quickly switch between Light and Dark mode.

Easing
- Improved: When using Easing effects in animations (for example in Bookmarks, Panel Menu, SVG animations, Snap Scroll etc), the HTML generator will now only include the jQuery Effects module (11KB) instead of the full jQuery UI library (248KB)!

Other important changes
jQuery Mobile has been removed from the software. This third party library is no longer supported because it is outdated (last update: 2014).
jQuery Mobile page will be converted to standard pages with Layout Grids.
Important note: The converted pages will not look exactly the same as before so please review the result before re-publishing these pages!
