Minor improvements

• Badge elements always use the default Visualbook font for better legibility and consistency

• In the Image section you can now choose for each image whether clicking it opens an enlarged preview (lightbox) or not.

• New design of the login e-mail. Visualbook has a passwordless login system where you just enter your e-mail and a code arrives in your inbox. You use that code to sign in to the admin.

• The e-mail sending system has also been changed: I dropped Google SMTP for sending and replaced it with the hosting's native mail() function.

Note: you can also use password login, which you set up in the admin Panel.

Improved typography options:

• Visualbook headings can now use stylistic sets ss01–09 and all-caps display

• Visualbook body texts can now use stylistic sets ss01–09 and tabular figures

• The text in the sample-character slideshow on the Visualbook homepage can now use stylistic sets ss01–09 and tabular figures

• Previews of individual typeface sections on the Typography page can use stylistic sets ss01–09 and tabular figures. This setting also carries over to the preview glyphs (characters) of the given typeface.
