List Builder is no longer available. If you have existing lists on your site, you'll still be able to use them. To create new lists, add a repeater.

Repeaters let you present a list of items that have the same design and layout, but different content. For example, it’s great for featuring your new stories, business listings and more.

Add a repeater and change the content manually, in the same way you would do with a gallery or strip. You can also turn on developer tools to connect your repeater to a database collection and get the content to automatically update.

Here’s how: Go to the Editor > Add > Click Lists & Grids > Choose a repeater & edit anything like text, images & more

Safari 9 users: Update your browser

Please note: You are not blocked from using the Wix Editor. You may click Got It or X out and continue working on your website.  

Now when viewing your website from your phone, you can close your menu by clicking outside the menu. If you don't remember, before you had to click on the "X". This is a small change that gives people a better experience when visiting your website on the go.
