Notable changes

Content scheduling

Enterprise

You can now schedule content on a Page to become visible at a specific time in the future.

To do this you can use the Schedule tab in any block's configuration or a special Content Scheduler block.

In the Schedule tab you can define when any block becomes visible and when it disappears from a Page.
