Site Search Labels
8.12.2014
By default we were using the site title as the label for the site search box at the top right corner of your site (see image to the right) However, we noticed that many of you have very long site titles, so we added an option in Settings where you can shorten (or make an alias) for the site search label (see image below)
Tables
7.22.2014
We miss 1995 just as much as you do, that's why tables are back in CMS 4. But these aren't your grandma's tables, these bad boys are responsive! That means they'll look fantastic on any size screen. Give 'em a try, you won't regret it.
