Fresco Platform Update – Version 1.4.2 (15th December 2025)

Bringing you a faster, smoother, and more reliable editing experience

What's New

Quicker page editing
- Pages now load much faster when you’re editing, so you can preview changes and get your updates live with less waiting.
Card Component is available
- You can now use the new Card component to display content in a visually appealing and organized way adding text, links and an image with different layout options. Cards can be added directly to a section, or used with other components such as Tile Grid, Accordion, Tab, dynamic Listing and Selected Content.
Pre-populated regions for an improved editing experience
- When you add banners or cards, key regions are automatically pre-filled with helpful components. This makes it simpler to get started and ensures your layouts look great from the start.
Improved metadata styling in Cards (standalone, listing and selected content components)
- Metadata now appears neatly below the main title in cards, following our latest design standards. This makes important details easier to spot and keeps your pages looking polished when viewed on a desktop or mobile device.

Edit Pane sidebar control works in all browsers
- You can now hide and show the Edit Pane without affecting Page Preview, no matter which browser you’re using.
Better mobile layouts
- All multi-column layouts automatically stack into a single column on smaller screens, keeping your content readable and consistent on mobiles and tablets. The stacking order follows the original desktop layout order.
Banner layouts on small screens
- Banners now display correctly on very small devices, so your site always looks professional.
Consistent Edit Pane width
- The Edit Pane stays the same width, even as you move between different sections, making for a smoother editing experience.
Flexbox image alignment
- Images now align exactly as you set them, both horizontally and vertically, for a more predictable design.
Safer video deletion
- If you delete a video from your media library, any page that used it won’t crash. Instead, you’ll see a helpful message so you can either remove the video component or choose a new video.
Card metadata and region visibility
- Cards now come with pre-filled metadata text. If you remove a component (like a strapline), the space stays visible in Page Preview so you can easily add it back, but it won’t show up on the published page.
