May 2025 update - Webfactory

You can bookmark our System Update page for regular updates. Here is a summary of what’s new this month:

• Option to skip image compression: When uploading banner/slideshow images, you can now bypass image compression.
• Text formatting bar in the Website Editor: It’s now easier to format text. Just highlight it and use the toolbar to add bold, italics, links, or headings. We’ve also updated the shortcuts for headings and subheadings.
• Download account statements: You can now download a CSV statement of your account from the Hub.
• Easier layout copying: You can now copy a layout directly from a blank page—no need to go back or start over.
• Bulk update product prices: You can now adjust the unit price of all your products at once under Webshop > Batch Actions.
• .HEIC now supported: You can now upload iPhone photos in .HEIC format directly to the Hub.
• Comment formatting options: It’s now easier to format text in the Feedback Centre. You can now use bold, italics, and bullet points to make your comments clearer.
• Adding code snippets in comments: In the Feedback Centre, you can now easily add code to your comments. Just click "Add Code Snippet", and your code will appear in a clear, formatted box—easy to read and separate from regular text.
• Small change to Street View: To manage rising Google fees, Street View no longer loads automatically. Instead, just click the "Load Street View" button. This helps us keep costs down without removing the feature or raising prices.
