New Build Released - 0.1.4
We've been busy in the last month with today's release. Containing over 80 fixes, improvements, and new features, a lot of beta tester feedback has gone into this release. Thank you beta testers!
The first thing you'll notice is our tool bar redesign and new status bar. The tool bar has been reworked to give quicker access for adding content components and clearer separation between web site related and content specific items. The new status bar will tell you how many blog comments you have (I love this feature), give you notifications from Viviti, and let you switch editing modes for previewing or bug checking.
We've done a bunch of improvements for those of you using the Blog, and added 3 new Blog related components which allow you to display a blog search, recent comments, and archived posts anywhere on your site.

There is also a new option located in My Website -> Blog Settings that allows you to show Social Bookmarking links with the metadata of each blog post. You can select which ones you want to display, making it easy for visitors to add your posts to services like Digg, Delicious, and more.

We've almost doubled the number of themes in our gallery now, and while we haven't implemented all the themes people have suggested, we have implemented a bunch. We will continue to keep adding more to our gallery, so keep the suggestions coming in the forum. Some other new components allow you to easily embed Flickr Photos, YouTube videos, and most recent updates from Twitter:

Here is a quick list of a few other things we've implemented that you've been asking for:
- RSS Component updates more frequently, and works with more feeds
- Layout Mode added, allowing you to work on your site with all the content stripped out (easier editing, fixing broken blocks)
- Permalinks can be customized now when creating new blog posts, and will work with international characters.
- Preview mode to quickly view how your site will look logged out, with editing features disabled
- Font and Font Size added to visual editor
- Single image component to quickly add just one image to your site
- New searchable component browser
For those who are still waiting for beta keys, we'll be sending out a new batch very soon! Have fun with the new features everyone!

thanks for this site!!
Viviti just gets better and better! Team Viviti truly listens to their beta testers. Loving the latest release.
i would have to say it has amazing updates now, but im having some problems deleting some of my html material.
W00T! W00T! YAY TEAM!! :)
If you enter an HTML component that doesn't have any visible output (javascripts etc), you can use the "layout mode" to make it editable.. this is the first button on the bottom status bar - click it to toggle , and again to set the site back to normal.
In layout mode all your content will be collapsed, making it easy to move things around, and also easy to edit components if they have broken or no output.
hope this helps!
I Think This New Release Is Great! I CAN'T Wait Until The NEXT Release To See What New Features Are Planned!
