- The existing `image` formatter was updated to support photos sent from the Streams API. (yext#998)
- Support for Direct Answers on Vertical was added to the `vertical-standard` template. It is commented out by default. (yext#994)

### Changes
- To better support Consumer Authentication, the `AnswersExperience.init()` method can be called on `Document` load. (yext#995)
- The default `universalLimit` for all Vertical page configs was updated to 4. (yext#1010, yext#1021)

### Bugfixes
- Ensured that in all page templates, the `SpellCheck` appears above the `ResultsCount`. (yext#1011, yext#1017)

- Font pre-loads on Multi-lang sites now work correctly. (yext#1018)

v1.22.3

v1.22.2

### Bug Fixes
- Fixed the logic of the `getLanguageForProvider` utility method. This method maps the `locale` specified by the user to one that is understood by the chosen map provider. (yext#891)
