Migration From jQuery To JavaScript Is Finalized

The Tilda codebase has been rewritten to JavaScript as part of a planned effort to increase website load speed. The jQuery library will no longer be connected to new projects.

If you plan to use the modifications in your future projects, the code must be rewritten to Vanilla JavaScript. Third-party jQuery scripts will continue to run in current projects. We recommend that you rewrite them to avoid affecting the performance of the website.

Critical Errors In Your Email Inbox

Important errors related to website integrations will now come to your inbox. You don’t need to log in to Tilda daily to monitor possible errors—you'll notice and be able to fix them on time. The account owner will receive an email about errors in the inbox once a day.

Broken Link Checker

Check your website or web page for broken links with the new Tilda Broken Link Checker.

A broken link is a page URL that no longer works. The URL may have been changed, the page may have been deleted but the link remains on your website and no longer opens.

Broken links reduce the quality of the user experience. If there are many broken links on the website, it has a negative impact on SEO. To keep links on your website in order, use a free service to find broken links on your website or web page.

Automatic User Removal From a Group In Members Area

Now you can restrict the creation of free orders in your online store. This is convenient if you have free samples or catalogs among your products, and you are ready to give them away only when clients purchase paid items.

How to enable: Site Settings → Payment Systems → General payment settings.

The testing period for the Tilda Sans signature typeface is over :) Many thanks to all who participated and suggested improvements!

The typeface has been fine-tuned and now you are using the final version—it is already updated on all the websites with Tilda Sans, so you don’t need to do anything else.

Here are the key updates:

• The uppercase letters have become much closer in weight to the lowercase letters making the font look even more neutral yet expressive;
• The proportions of some characters have changed making the horizontal visual rhythm more uniform;
• Superscripts now look more balanced and work better in small type.
