Mail Engine Switches to PHP Mailer-SMTP
One of my web sites has always used the "default" email engine for submitting forms. In the latest build of WB (20.0.6), the email engine switches from the "default" setting to PHP Mailer-SMTP all on its own. I have gone into the form settings (on a flex grid) and have changed the email engine ...

PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Exception: Spam detected.
I have a client with a contact form set to use a "honeypot" to eliminate spam. The "honeypot" field is "address". When a bot fills in the "address" field, an exception is thrown (as designed).

Pablo, how did you get such great Bacon Fries images out of the AI? In my experience, the AI has a difficult time with spelling. If I specified "Bacon Fries" as the text to display, the AI would give me something like "Baon cFies". And are you using the dall-e-3 model?

Why not add a second layout grid with the alternate video for the 480, then hide it in all the other views. Of course, the original layout grid will have to be hidden in the 480 view. It will add to the page weight somewhat, but it works.

If you have to use Gmail, be sure to whitelist the address you are sending from. That may help.

The text items that make up your menu on the master page must have unique IDs. The current IDs are "Text1", "Text2", etc. Those IDs will probably be duplicated on the pages using the MasterPage, which will cause problems.
