  1. 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.

  2. 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…

  3. 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…

  4. Currently, the published date for news articles appears on the News Category page (typically titled 'Latest news'), where an overview of all articles is displayed.

    However, once users click into an individual article via the 'Read More' link, the date is not shown within the article itself.

    Adding the published date at the top of each article perhaps just below the heading would make it clear when the information was posted.

    This would be especially helpful if older articles appear in search engine results, as users could quickly assess whether the content is outdated.

    The same improvement could be applied…

  5. The current exodus of users from X to Bluesky is happening. This could reach a tipping point where most schools will wish to use Bluesky.

    Therefore we would like to see Bluesky integration made possible so that schools can quickly transition from sharing to X to Bluesky instead.

  6. When you upload a file and it is too large, you see a message stating "file size error", it would be handy for users to know what the maximum file size is so they can resize/compress accordingly.

  7. Some users want to keep their original page, such as www.schoolname.co.uk/Information/Prospectus, but also create a simpler, dedicated URL like www.schoolname.co.uk/Prospectus for promotional or advertising purposes.

    If they create two separate pages, they can have two separate URLs with different friendly names, but this would require them to manually update both pages whenever content needs changing.

    They want to keep both the original page and the promotional URL active, so that any updates made to the original page are automatically reflected on the simpler, promotional URL as well, without needing a redirect.

    Although setting up a redirect from www.schoolname.co.uk/Prospectus to …

  8. Hi,
    It would be good to be able to see changes that a user has made when they send a page for approval to be published.
    At present if I view a page that is pending approval, I cannot see what changes were made. Thanks, James

  13. It would be useful if administrators had the ability to delete calendar categories, similar to superusers.

    Currently, only superusers can delete categories, even though administrators can see the delete option.

    Allowing administrators to delete categories that do not contain any events would save them from having to contact support for help.

    Additionally, when a superuser tries to delete a category that has events, a notification pops up saying the category cannot be removed.

    It would be helpful if within this notification it allowed both superusers and administrators to see which events are in the category and move them to another…

  14. It would be helpful to have an option to right-click on inserted templates, such as button links, accordions, or link boxes, columns or Styled Tables to make them easier to remove.

    Currently, removing these items can be a bit tricky, as users need to select the correct area and use specific keyboard shortcuts.

    We often receive queries from users who are unsure how to remove templates from their pages.

  15. It would be really useful to have the option to hide or display items in custom forms.

    For example, in the 'Staff Profiles' custom form, when a school is expecting a new staff member but doesn’t have all their details yet, they could create the profile in advance and keep it hidden until it's ready. This would help keep the website looking professional while allowing schools to prepare content in advance.

    It would also be helpful to have a tag in the item list to indicate which items are hidden or live, making it easier to manage these items at…

    This feature would enable users to quickly find and manage specific types of content, improving efficiency and streamlining the content management process.

  17. When a form has been archived in the form settings, there is currently no quick way to identify archived forms in Sitemap View.

    Similar to how archived pages are marked, it would be useful to have a 'form archive' icon displayed next to archived forms in Sitemap View for easier identification.

  18. If a form has been archived in the form settings, and a user tries to embed it as an inline form on a page, it currently appears as a blank box after clicking 'OK' in the 'Add Component' dialogue.

    This lack of feedback can be confusing, as users are not informed why the form is not displaying.

    It would be helpful if a message appeared, notifying the user that the form cannot be embedded because it has been archived.

    The message could also include a link to the original form or a Help Centre article explaining how to re-publish or…

  19. When a user embeds an 'inline form' on a page from the 'Components' menu, it can be difficult to locate the original form to make edits.

    Currently, the only way to find the original form is to search through the Sitemap view, looking for a form with a title related to the content. Users must then check each form individually to see if the content matches.

    Another option is to hover over the form in the Sitemap view to display the page URL and compare the page ID with the source ID shown in the 'Add Component' dialogue. However, most…

  20. Users can insert columns into the content area of a page by clicking in the area where they want the column, then selecting the 'TEMPLATE' icon from the EDIT menu.

    It would be useful to have the option for a four column template, as currently, only two or three column options are available.
