Enhancements:
-
Caching Improvements for Site Performance.
The results of our testing have been extremely promising. We are hoping that you will see some noticeable differences when updating content throughout your site. After the site performance improvements have been released, we will complete another round of testing in our production environment. This additional testing is done to ensure it performs as efficiently as it did in our test environment. More information on these exciting improvements is coming soon!
Bug Fixes:
