Smallbox Software released Version 8 of its popular CMS in Q4 of 2019. We have simplified the toolbar, created a new program manager interface, overhauled the image library and introduced many React based components. React is a JavaScript library for building user interfaces.

Only what you need.
For SB8 we further trimmed the already succinct toolbar in the spirit of "less is more". Now you can get information about the layout you are looking at, a convenient link to our support site and the "OMG how did I live without this?" toggle edit button.
The toggle edit button does what you would think and disables the editing hotspots on your site. This enables you to see your site as others coming to your site would. This has been an amazing time saving feature for us. We are sure you will find time savings too. No more logging in and out to see what your changes will look like.
Manage: one button to rule them all. See your libraries, navigation, page content, redirects, everything... in one place. Up top you will see the standard CMS functionality and below that you will find any site specific customizations which might exist. Too easy, but don't let it consume you, my precious.
