TOWeb V12 changes

• The passwords for the protected pages of your site are now strongly encrypted, thus providing increased security in the event that other people than you have authorized access to your web space and therefore to the sources of your scripts
• Improvement in the generation of CSS files with reduction of their size, thanks to the addition of several optimizations aimed at removing the presence of non-essential characters (such as certain spaces for instance) as well as some declarations when unused
• When the Preview or Publish directory of a site no longer existed (following a problem such as a deletion by mistake or an incomplete restoration at this level) it was not automatically recreated and could block the generation of the entire site
• From the customer accounts backoffice page, a click on the customer's email address now displays a pre-filled form with the login and password in order to facilitate consultations or modifications of your customer accounts
• Improvement in the entry of postal codes in the order forms of an e-commerce site with now 4 obligatory digits to be entered for postal codes of Switzerland and Belgium, 5 digits to be obligatory for postal codes of France, Italy, Spain and Germany. Important: for this to work, the activation and presence of the "Country" field in the order form remains necessary, even if the sales of your site are limited to only one country
• When purchasing digital products, the email sent to the customer may not contain all the download links for the purchased files
• The return to store button displayed after validating an order on an e-commerce site may no longer work correctly
• Individual single-use coupons assigned to a customer could sometimes be used multiple times and/or orders placed by a customer could no longer be added to his/her customer's account. In addition, when the option to use a different address for billing was activated in the customer account creation form, a "warning" line could sometimes appear in the content of the customer account page
• Fix for certain web fonts added and used in a Theme. If you still notice a problem with an element in your theme that does not use the correct font you selected, it may be necessary to delete it and add it again
• To avoid any confusion between the site and the back office, the terminology “coupon name” has been replaced by “coupon code” in the customer accounts back office
• For certain user interface languages, links were not working in the explanation window of the MP4 video formats that can be added in a paragraph of a topic

• Opening/importing a site created with version 11 or lower no longer worked but displayed a conversion error message
• The ON/OFF buttons may no longer be visible and therefore not usable in the web forms of a site
• The button to return to the main page of your store (defined in "Options > e-Commerce > Your store") present in the shopping cart may not work
• The “duplicate a section” function no longer worked correctly
• The absence of a personalized icon file could stop the generation of the site and/or certain topics such as for example a catalog of products thereafter displayed without prices and cart buttons
• Custom error pages could display errors on a site when used
• User interface small fixes in some screens of TOWeb

• Fix for a security vulnerability impacting all TOWeb sites created with version 5 or higher: malicious people can hijack the use of an internal message page of your TOWeb site with code injections in order to display the content of their choice on your site or to carry out redirections and phishing of your site to harm the activity and/or reputation of your site. To correct each of your sites, a complete republication is strongly recommended (and not just the publication of changes)
• Addition of a new column "Striked out Price" in the editing grid of catalog products in order to quickly manage your change of prices during rebate sales
• Optimizations of the interface with a faster opening time of the TOWeb main screens especially for the Theme step during multiple reopenings
• Fixes in the operation of folding/unfolding paragraphs which could hide other paragraphs of a topic when the "Fold all paragraphs except the last one clicked" option was activated
• In certain themes, the top banner of a site (configurable from "Options > Advertising > Top banner") could have its content shifted to the left instead of being centered
• TOWeb startup has been improved to detect and prevent crash when blocked by an antivirus or another security system. When a file creation problem is detected during startup, TOWeb now displays a message and advice to help you correct this blocking issue
• Activating the "Show/Hide" scrolling effect in the Header of your Theme could cause unexpected scrolling preventing clicks on smartphone and tablet devices in the website's menu and submenus

• The "Large size" option located at the bottom of the list of products in a catalog may not keep the correct choice and therefore not display the images in the correct size
• When a site was being published, selecting another site did not update the information displayed on the side and opening another site in a new window did not work with a STUDIO edition either
• The image defined in the "meta open graph tag" window of a topic could appear blurry (low quality) when displayed in a group / blog
• When a section is put "Under construction" and belongs to a group/blog, its information are displayed in the index page of the group/blog when previewed locally in a web browser (and only in this case , this problem did not appear inside TOWeb nor in published sites)

• In an e-Commerce site, the choice of the "Main page of your e-Shop" can now be specified in "Options > e-Commerce > About your store" in order to allow your customers to return to the page of your choice when they consult their shopping cart and use the "Back to the store" button

• Update of the new link for the Google-WebFonts-Helper located in the "add a new web font" window of the CSS editor

• The generated QR Codes no longer use the Google Chart API service because this web service, declared as deprecated by Google, is increasingly dysfunctional and will most certainly be stopped by Google soon. In order to anticipate this problem, the QR Codes of your sites are now generated directly by TOWeb V12 and this more quickly than before, without ever malfunctioning or blocking access to the "Publish" step (if fort instance you wish to use TOWeb without internet connection) and they are also generated in better resolution format
• In the form allowing the creation of a customer account, the list of states/departments could sometimes be empty (such as for instance for the provinces of Italy or the states of the USA when used) and prevent the creation of customer accounts of the countries concerned on e-Commerce websites
• Changing the Zoom value in Maps objects could no longer work
• When saving several sites at once, the label above the progress gauge was containing twice the same name of the backup instead of displaying the name of the site (in quotes) and the name of its backup file (in parentheses)

• Possibility of no longer having submenu indicators appear in the menu of your site
• Not upgrading your existing PayPal payment and/or customizing the color of the PayPal button and/or deactivating PayPal Checkout V2 to reuse the old deprecated version of PayPal Standard could cause this online payment method to malfunction
