🦉 Owlstown Newsletter #50
Hello Owlstowners,
50! 50 newsletters of updates and improvements to Owlstown. That's 3 years worth of new features. Thank you all for believing in the mission of Owlstown and trusting it with sharing your research online.
Stay tuned for more newsletters. I have a long list of features and ideas that are in progress or in the planning stages.
Cheers,
Ian 🦉
What’s New
New Design for Academic Gallery
The Academic Gallery has a new design. In addition to listing hundreds of great academic websites, the gallery now showcases individual webpages from Owlstown websites. This means you can browse webpages and discover new research content. I also added an improved search feature that makes it easier to find what you are looking for.
Ace plans
Owlstown subscription plans are now called Owlstown Ace plans: Ace Start, Ace Pro, and Ace Premium. With a subscription, you have the option of using the new domain ending: academicwebsite.com. Also check out Ace Awards for discount eligibility.
Contact info block
I created a new block for contact information. With this block, you can put your contact info on any page on your website. This is most relevant to websites that use the themes Duffel, Elbowpatch, Goggles, and Hoodie. You can move the contact info that appears in the home page and move it to a different page.
