New Editing Dashboard (May 14, 2025)

We are excited to announce a new dashboard to greet you when you log in! Our goal is to provide information at your fingertips to help you make decisions, keep your site fresh, and present opportunities for improvement. The dashboard will launch with a few blocks of information, but you can expect additional blocks to be added over time. The Dashboard will eventually replace the quarterly maintenance reports you receive.  Check out the new Dashboard⁠ .

Add Headings to Accordions (May 14, 2025)

You now have the option to label the title ("summary") of an Accordion as a Heading 2 or Heading 3, if warranted. Unless marked as H2 or H3, Accordion titles will continue to be formatted as normal text.  Learn more about the change to Accordion Headings⁠ 

Troubleshooting Guide (April 15, 2025)

Are you stuck? We have self-help guides sprinkled throughout this wiki, but we've now added a single place where they can be found. Check out our new landing page,  ⁠⁠Troubleshooting Your Site⁠ . The individual guides you're accustomed to viewing are still in their same locations; this new page simply organizes them all to make the content easier to find. We've also added a few new troubleshooting pages, so check them out if you're stuck!

New Editor Roles (April 15, 2025)

We have released two new site editing roles: Preparer and Reviewer. Users with these permissions can view and/or edit unpublished content. Because they cannot create or edit published content, these users do not need to take the Accessibility training.
Learn more about these  new editor roles , and  how to assign them .

New Banner Image Height Option (Mar 19, 2025)

There are now two height options for Banner Images! Add the Banner Image component to the full-width or main-width region as normal. You'll notice a new dropdown called "Height" that appears below the image upload area. Within this option, you can choose "short" (default) or "tall."
Existing Banner Images use the "short" version, but can be updated in the editing interface.

New Social Media Icon: Bluesky (Feb 6, 2025)

You can now add a Bluesky icon to your social media footer block.  See which other social media platforms are supported⁠ .

New Feature: Logout Button (Jan 8, 2025)

 A logout button⁠  has been added to the footer of your sites. When logged in, the logout button will appear in place of the login button.

Social Media Icons Update (Dec 11, 2024)

New functionality has been added to allow web editors to maintain the social media network links in their footer.  Learn more about updating your social media accounts and customizing the layout⁠ .

New Look to the Editing Interface: Paragraph Previews (Oct 16, 2024)

Whether creating a new page or editing an existing one, you are accustomed to seeing a tiny thumbnail of an image alongside the name of the component type (e.g. Testimonial or Spotlight) and a single-line teaser of its content. The updated editing interface displays a visual preview of each component that matches what site visitors see.
As you can see, the entire component, e.g. Color Band, is visible without clicking the “edit” button. This will be true for all of the components on your page, even those without images, such as Text Areas. The “Edit” button remains in its same location, and the reordering dots on the left (see screenshot above in the Testimonial region) also retain their function and location in the editing interface.

Have you ever wondered what size or ratio your images should be? Check out our brand new  guide on optimal image sizes⁠ to learn more.
