A smoother login experience, better Sites editing, and polished markdown tables
Sign in more easily with email links, keep your Sites editor drafts between sessions, and see markdown tables rendered clearly with borders, spacing, and scroll support.
What's new in Hub
This update covers several quality-of-life improvements across signing in, the Sites editor, and content display.
Sign in with a link sent to your inbox
Hub now supports email-link sign-in: request a link, check your inbox, and click to be signed in — no password required. This is now the default sign-in method, with password sign-in still available as an alternative.
Alongside this, the login and signup screens have been redesigned into a single, compact form. Email and password appear together, touch targets are comfortably sized on mobile, and a password-visibility toggle means you don't have to guess whether you've typed correctly. The form adapts to your system light or dark preference, loads instantly without downloading an external font, and shows clear pending states so you always know what's happening.
Sign-in email links now open on the dedicated app domain and are restricted to safe, local destinations — so you'll land in the right place regardless of which device you use to open the link.
Sites editor: keep your drafts and pick your theme
Two common frustrations with the Sites inspector have been resolved.
First, closing and reopening the inspector drawer now preserves any unsaved edits you've made — for example, hero text you were drafting but hadn't saved yet. Previously those changes would be silently discarded when you closed the panel.
Second, the inspector now has a compact System / Light / Dark selector in the editing toolbar, so you can preview your site in different colour modes without leaving the editor. Previously, the inspector used a mix of fixed dark colours that could look washed out depending on the active theme.
Starter hero edits are no longer lost on new sites
When you create a brand-new site, Hub shows a starter hero before you've added any pages. Edits to that starter hero are now saved to your site draft and carried over into your first page when you create it. Previously, those edits were not saved — leaving new sites looking as if nothing had been changed.
Markdown tables now look the way you'd expect
Hub sites and editors could already parse markdown tables, but the output was hard to read: columns ran together with no spacing or borders. Tables now render with padded, bordered cells, a themed header row, and preserved column alignment (left, centre, or right) as written in your markdown.
Wide tables scroll horizontally within their container rather than overflowing the page, and the same improvements apply in record content, rich-text blocks, and the editor preview — so what you see while writing matches what your visitors see.
More improvements are in progress. We'll keep you updated as they roll out.
