We heard that the image logos that you could add to the header often weren't big enough, so we decided to fix that. Now the logo can be 3 times bigger in width than it was before.
Still, bear in mind that the logo size can be limited by the block height and the neighboring columns. If you resized the logo to the maximum and the size is still the same, try adjusting the columns on the sides to give the logo more space.
More on logos in the article Adding a logo.
Over the last few weeks, we kept adding new features to the store that will come in handy for SEO and products management. Check some of them out:
1. Blocking the store from being indexed — this includes products and categories pages.
2. Hiding a category page from the search engines — this blocks the indexing of the category page but doesn't affect the other store pages.
3. Mass actions for the products — changing the statuses of multiple products to in/out of stock, and more.
4. Product display options — choose the rule for global products sorting, e.g. by name, price, etc.
5. Product SKU is now visible in the product title — this helps your customers compare several similar products and make correct orders.
We heard that some step-by-step video instructions help understand the product better...So please meet: Weblium video tutorials on various features!
You can find them in the product — by simply clicking on the "?" icon near the block/element settings, also in the website settings:
Also, subscribe to our YouTube channel to stay tuned for the new tutorials.
Meanwhile, check out some of the recent videos:
Additional flexibility while creating websites! Now you can hide any block in the editor from all the small screens (including mobiles and tablets). This is useful if you'd like to share certain info with desktop viewers only, or make the website shorter on small screens.
For more info check out the guides here.
We've improved the logic of the mobile view creation. Now the paddings and fonts adjust better on mobiles which makes the websites lighter, neater, and more readable. There is now more space around buttons, and if you entered bigger paddings on the desktop, they will enlarge proportionally on smaller screens.
Moreover, empty columns and collections don't display on mobiles anymore.
When dealing with clients, every minute counts. Respond to the requests in a timely manner with the new feature — CRM notifications.
This way, you'll receive push notifications on your desktop and mobile about all new contact forms submits, instantly. Even if you're not logged in to your Weblium account!
To enable the notifications on desktop, open the CRM in your account and tap Yes! in the pop-up window that appears:
To enable the notifications on mobile, log in to your Weblium account from your mobile device, go to the CRM section, and allow the notifications.
Currently, this feature is available in Chrome only. Make sure that you allow Chrome to send notifications (this can be done in the browser settings).
We are happy to let you know that starting today, August 13, 2020, all newly created websites will be automatically assigned a free Trial period which lasts 14 days. All the websites you added before August 13, 2020, will not be affected.
This is an opportunity for you to test some Pro features without paying for the Pro subscription right away. During the Trial period, you can decide whether Pro is right for you or the Free version is enough.
Here is what's available on the Trial period:
Here are the features NOT available on the Trial period:
Here are 2 scenarios:
1. If you decided to not go Pro and there is no credit card linked to your account, the site will go Free automatically.
2. If there is a payment method added to your account, the website will be upgraded to the annual Pro plan.
If you are unsure how the Trial period will affect your websites or if you have any questions, please contact us in chat.
Earlier today, on June 9, 2020, we were experiencing publishing issues that lasted for around 30 minutes. They were caused by the number of queued events on production — the system was processing too many requests and couldn't perform the publishing events.
Our development team prioritized this issue and has already released the necessary updates. After numerous checks, we can confirm that the publishing issue has been resolved and we don't expect it to reoccur.
We apologize for the trouble this has brought and thank you for your continued patience and support.
Things to note:
- this hasn't affected the saving process — all the changes you've made to your websites are intact.
- This hasn't affected the sites which were already published.
- If you hit publish while we were experiencing the issue, then this action got to the queue and was finalized once we released updates. Check the live site to ensure that the most recent changes are there.
Finally, you can not worry about experimenting with your site design or adding some new content. We’ve added Site History feature to our editor, so now you can save and store different versions of your site. These versions can be restored to bring a site back to the point in time when the particular version was made.
Keep in mind that you can store up to 5 versions of your free site and up to 100 versions of the Pro site.
Check our complete guide for backing up a site version.
We've made it simple to communicate live with your site visitors with the help of chat widgets, and you probably know that you can already integrate LiveChat or Tawk.to chat to your site in just a few clicks.
From now one more popular widget is integrated into our editor – JivoSite chat.
Take a look at our ultimate tutorial for adding a JivoSite.
