  1. Most staff profile photos are taken by a professional photographer and are typically in portrait orientation.

    However, these images are often uploaded without being cropped into a square format, which can lead to important parts of the photo being cut off, such as the tops of heads.

    To enhance user experience, it would be beneficial to allow users to choose whether their images fit into a square or portrait frame on the website.

    This flexibility will prevent distortion and cropping issues when portrait images are forced into a square frame, while still accommodating users who have already cropped their images…

  2. Give an option to undo on the newsletter builder - Extremely restrictive and not having a presence of the undo button on the newsletter means that when a mistake is made you have to starts all over again which can be really time consuming.

  3. It would be useful if, for all websites in the Templates option on the EDIT menu, there was an attachments option that could be inserted into the page. This would allow users to upload attachments anywhere within the content area of a page.

  4. It would be useful if there were an option to centre align buttons inserted into columns so that they can be equally distributed across the page.

    Currently, this can only be done for text, as buttons are set to be left-aligned by default.

    When you attempt to highlight and select the buttons, they do not change alignment when you choose any of the alignment options in the Edit menu.

  5. Currently, only Pages and Forms can be duplicated within 'Sitemap View' when in 'Start Edit' mode.

    Expanding this to include other item types would be beneficial for users.

  6. It would be useful for administrators to have the option to impersonate other users.

    This feature would be particularly helpful when an administrator has configured specific permissions or access for another user. By impersonating that user, the administrator can verify that the permissions are functioning as expected and that the user can edit the designated areas of the website.

    Additionally, this capability would enable administrators to impersonate parents, allowing them to view the Parent Portal or Parents' Evening Booking as a parent would. This can help troubleshoot any issues a parent may be experiencing, allowing the administrator to provide assistance.

  7. A suggestion has already been submitted regarding the ability for users to sort this list alphabetically.

    However, it might be beneficial to also include an option to search for a specific school within the list.

    This feature would be particularly advantageous for Trust sites with extensive lists of schools, as it would eliminate the need for users to scroll excessively to locate the desired school.

  9. Just like with Accordions, it would be useful if a user could click into a row of columns and see a red arrow button appear, allowing them to easily insert a space between rows of columns.

  10. It would be beneficial for users to have the ability to customise their Calendar page.

    Offering the option to add a content area or a text box above and below the calendar would help them tailor the page to their needs.

  12. Currently, you only have the option to edit the 'horizontal alignment' of text within the table cells from the EDIT menu, with options like 'Left,' 'Centre,' 'Right,' and 'Justify.'

    It would be useful if, when you select text inside a table cell, the 'Vertical Alignment' option also appeared on the EDIT menu. This would allow you to align the text to 'Top,' 'Middle,' 'Bottom,' or 'Baseline.'

    In tables, this functionality is not easy to find. You have to right-click on the cell, select Cell > Cell Properties, and then choose the desired alignment from the 'Vertical Alignment' drop-down menu.

  13. Currently, there is a feature on some website templates that allows users to upload a newsletter as a PDF attachment to a specific page on their website.

    The homepage then displays a link to the latest attachment from that newsletter page, allowing visitors to click and access it directly.

    It would be beneficial to add an additional feature that allows the latest newsletters created in the Newsletter Builder to pull through to the homepage.

    This alternative option would provide a seamless way for visitors to view the most recent updates directly on the site.

  15. If you navigate to ADD-ONS > Data Dashboard > Groups, it would be beneficial for users to have the option to drill down into individual groups to see the specific members within each group.

    Currently, it only displays the quantity of contacts, staff, or students in each listed group.

    The only way to find out who belongs to each group is to click into every individual contact, staff member, or student to check their assigned group, which is not ideal.

  16. Currently, adding a subscribe button to a calendar requires manual input by the support team, as it's done directly within the code. Since this is provided free of charge (FOC), it might be more efficient to give users the ability to enable this option themselves.

    A possible solution could be adding a toggle under the 'EDIT' menu for calendars, allowing users to activate the subscribe button easily.

    To implement this, the following code would need to be added to the page.setup.asp folder:

    Mason.Site.setConf "calendar_ics", True

  17. Some of our schools love friendly urls for their website pages.
    Currently, shared content hosted on the MAT website (which is given a friendly url) does not share the friendly url when it shows on the school website.

  18. The ability to replace any files in File Manager with an updated version that will automatically sync to all occurrences of the file across the site.

    Many school policy documents need to appear in multiple locations for both user access and regulation/compliance - for example the Admissions Policy which would likely be on an Admissions and Key Documents pages. Rather than search for and delete every occurrence, it would be easier to have one file in File Manager which can be linked from multiple pages and auto-synced when it's updated. Many CMS platforms offer this as standard.

  19. Currently, to add a hyperlink to an image on a page, users must left-click the image and then select the chainlink icon from the edit menu.

    This process is not intuitive, especially for non-technical users, as it’s not immediately obvious that this is how links are added to images.

    Additionally, when an image is clicked, there’s no clear indication that it has been selected. A visible outline or thick border around the selected image would be helpful, both for clarity and accessibility.

    I suggest adding a 'Hyperlink' option within the Image Properties box, or a 'Link to' button that directly…

  20. Currently when a user uploads a thumbnail image for a News article, the crop icon will appear as soon at the image is uploaded.

    However, it is not clear to the user that they are to then click on this icon and set the crop for each of the different sections: Main, List, Home & Square.

    It would better if when you upload the Thumbnail image you are prompted to go through the crop options for each of these sections before they continue with editing the article.

    Additionally, when you save the article the image cropper icon will disappear, so…
