What is new in WYSIWYG Web Builder 14?

WYSIWYG Web Builder 14 has more than 200 new features/improvements!

Here’s an overview of some of the new features. Note: the screenshots are based on the BETA version. The final release may look slightly different. Besides screenshots there are also links to online examples and tutorials to demonstrate the new functionality.

 

Flex Grid

- New feature: WB14 introduces a new way of creating flexible layouts based on the new CSS Grid Layout. CSS grid layout is a new technique in CSS that allows web developers to create complex responsive web design layouts more easily and consistently across browsers.

'CSS Grid Layout' is a two-dimensional grid system that is native to CSS. It does not rely on floats or other hacks. This result in cleaner code and reliable code.

 

Note:

To prevent confusion with the existing (Bootstrap-based) ‘Layout Grid’ object, we have named the new object ‘Flex Grid’, because it’s a combination of CSS Grid Layout and Flexbox.

 

 

The idea behind the Grid Layout is to divide a webpage into columns and rows. The columns and rows have named areas where you can drag & drop objects in. The definition of the layout can be different for each breakpoint. Each grid area supports its own padding, (flexbox) alignment, border and background style.

 

CSS Grid Layout requires a modern browser. It does not work with Internet Explorer or older mobile browsers! Please visit https://caniuse.com/#feat=css-grid to check out the current browser support.

 


The Flex Grid has a grid editor so you can visually define the layout (grid areas) and behavior of the grid.

 

 

The size for each column/row can be set in pixels, percentages or the ‘fr’ unit.

‘fr’ stands for ‘fraction of available space’. You can think of this as percentages for available space after you've taken off fixed-sized and content-based columns/rows. This allows you to create layout that previously were not possible with standard HTML/CSS!


 

For example, in this case columns are set to 1fr, 40px, 20%.

 

 

The sidebar is 20%, the white space is 40px and the remain space is used by 1fr. The row height is usually defined in ‘pixels’ or ‘auto’, where the height is defined by the content.

Google Fonts

- New feature: Added Google Fonts Manager. Adding Google Fonts to your website has never been easier. Google Fonts no longer have to be manually downloaded/installed from the Google website, The Google Font Manager takes care of this! Fonts that are installed via the Font Manager will be added to the ‘web safe fonts list and the necessary CSS code will be generated automatically when you preview or publish the website.

 

Font can have different variants, like light, medium, bold, regular etc. The available variants can be enabled per font.

 

 


Cards

- New feature: Added Card' object. A Card is a lightweight, flexible content container. It includes options for headers and footers, a wide variety of content, styling, and powerful display options.

The Card object was inspired by Bootstrap's v4 Card component.

 

 

 


When used in combination with a flexbox container, multiple cards with different content can have the same height, which normally would be difficult to achieve.

 

 

 

- New feature: Cards can also be used as Popovers, this basically uses the Card as an advanced tooltip/pop-up box that appears when the user clicks or hovers on an element.

Popovers can be placed at the top, right, bottom of left of the container object and can be activated via click, hover or focus.

Twitter Cards

- New feature: With Twitter Cards, you can attach rich photos, videos and media experiences to Tweets, helping to drive traffic to your website. If you add Twitter Card meta tags to your webpage, users who Tweet links to your content will have a “Card” added to the Tweet that’s visible to their followers. This is very similar to sharing a link on Facebook which automatically displays a preview with title, summary, and thumbnail of your page content when using Open Graph Meta Tags.

 

More information:

Master Page/Master Frame.

 

- New feature: Added new master page functionality. In addition to Master Frame you can now also use another page as background template. This does not require a content place holder!

Basically, the master page will be used as 'background' of the content page and you place all other objects on top of this. If the master page includes a footer then it will automatically be moved based on the content.

Form

- New feature: Added 'From' property to built-in form processor settings. This will set the 'from' address of email sent messages to the specified email address.

- New feature: Added server sided input validation (Form Properties->Advanced->Miscellaneous). This adds extra security to the form by also validating the input on the server side (using PHP), so even if JavaScript is disabled or the form has been modified (by spammers/hackers) the submitted will still be validated.

User defined variables

- New feature: Added $PROJECT_CSS$ system variable. This makes it possible to specify a different name for the global (external) style sheet, instead of using the project name.

 

 


Publish

- New feature: Make a backup of the complete project (including images) in zip format.

 

 

Error Reports

- New feature: Error Reports displays a warning when a style does not have the same breakpoints as the page. If you are using styles in responsive pages then these styles should have the same breakpoints.

 

 

 

Page Properties

- New feature: Added 'Use Safari mobile background fix'. This option implements a workaround for issues with full width (parallax/fixed/cover) background images on Safari mobile (iOS) browsers. This sets background-attachment to ‘scroll’, so the full image will be displayed.

 

 

 


 

Ready-to-use-JavaScript

- Improved: Google Maps scripts now display a preview image in the workspace (instead of the generic JavaScript logo).

 

 

 

- New feature: Added ‘Countdown Days’ script.

The typewriter scripts simulate typing text. Typewriter Deluxe also includes a cursor and reverse mode.

 

- Improved: Text scripts now show a preview of the text in the workspace.

 

- Improved: Added support for Google Fonts.

 

- Improved: Added support for Global Replace (fonts and colors)
