Fluent New Tab — v4.2 Release Notes

This update focuses on improving stability, resolving critical bugs with wallpaper caching and search engines, and introducing smarter location configuration for the weather module.

New Features & Customization

Advanced Weather Location Search: Added a brand-new feature that introduces advanced city search capabilities for the weather module. This makes configuring and finding the correct local weather data much more precise and user-friendly. #128

Improvements & Performance

Codebase Optimization: Conducted general code cleanup and internal refactoring across various modules to keep the extension lightweight, maintainable, and performing optimally.

Bug Fixes & Security

Wallpaper Cache Recovery: Resolved an issue where wallpapers fetched via API would disappear after the cache expired. The extension now automatically triggers a new API request to fetch a fresh wallpaper whenever the cache expires, ensuring a seamless visual experience. #129
System Default Search Engine Fix: Fixed a bug where the "System default" search engine option failed to properly call the Chrome API. This feature now works normally and integrates flawlessly with browser defaults. #130
Security Patch (XSS): Resolved a low-risk Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability found within the favicon customization module, further strengthening user security. #122

Bug Fixes & Improvements
Folder Drag and Drop: Restored the functionality that allows users to drag and drop shortcuts directly into folders.
Folder Navigation & Capacity: Relocated the "Back" button inside folders to be displayed below the grid. This prevents the button from occupying a shortcut slot, expanding the maximum folder capacity from 39 to a full 40 shortcuts.
Shortcuts Menu Redesign: Fixed and redesigned the shortcuts menu. Menus now appear cleanly outside the shortcut's click area, adopting a standard design pattern familiar to modern browsers. fix #116
French Localization: Fixed an issue where selecting the French language setting incorrectly displayed Italian translations. fix #117
Tab Title Localization: Resolved a bug that caused the default tab name to always display in English, ensuring it now respects the user's active language setting. (#118) by @MohammadYusif in #119
Translation Management Framework: Reorganized the translation files, migrating the project from Crowdin to Node Translate. Translation contributions (via Pull Requests) and corrections (via issues) are highly encouraged and welcome.
Search Engine Icon: Adjusted the "system default" search engine icon by removing the glow effect, maintaining a cleaner and more neutral appearance.
Minor Fixes: Addressed various other minor errors and under-the-hood stability issues.

I just added chrome_settings_overrides.
