UX Improvements for Better Clarity in the Platform

Created by Mark Alfon, Modified on Tue, 9 Jul at 5:46 PM by Mark Alfon

We’ve made several small improvements in various areas of the platform, to help you better understand where you are and what you’re doing as you build and customize your sites.

Default audio settings for videos set to autoplay

All major browsers automatically mute videos set to autoplay. To help you align with this web convention, when setting a video to autoplay in the Video widget, its audio option will automatically default to Off.

Better URL redirect best practice example

We’ve added a guiding example in the URL Redirect list screen, to give you a better indication of the best way to formulate your redirect. You’ll now see an Example tag next to that example. Once you add your first redirect, it will replace this example in the table.

Finding a custom widget you’ve built is now easier

We’ve added the option to upload an icon to each widget you’ve built in the Widget Builder, to make it easier for you to look for a specific widget from your list, especially if it’s a long one.
