Owlstown Newsletter #2

Hello Owlstowners! Here’s your update from your friendly neighborhood website builder. As always, reply to this email with any feature requests and advice to better share academic content with the world.

Question

I'm wondering if you would be interested in a custom theme for your academic website. How would a custom website theme improve your academic website? If you had a custom theme, what would it look like?

Feature updates

Sections for people

You can now organize People list page into sections. Here’s an example. There are two ways to add sections:

1. Click ‘Manage sections’ on the People page and add sections.

2. Add sections when you create/update a person. This is also where you assign sections to a person.

Better View

I want to give you a sneak peek on Better View. It’s a feature I’m working on that makes it easier to see the changes that you make on your website. No more clicking on Preview button to see your changes. For now, you can see it when you edit your contact information and your social links. Eventually, most of Owlstown will have this feature.

In the works

• New template

• Create full pages for people

• Support sections for more content types

• Add Better View to other content types
