  1. 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.

  2. We currently have a view that allows users to see all pages in draft status, but there isn't a similar view for archived items.

    Users often don't realise they need to go into Sitemap View to locate archived items, and it can be tedious to search through Sitemap View for specific types of items without a filter option (another UserVoice has been raised for this: https://junipereducation.uservoice.com/redirect/suggestions/49364264).

    It would be useful to have a dedicated button on the HOME tab that provides easy access to all archived items in one place, making it more efficient for users to manage them.

  3. 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…

  4. 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.

  5. Document Management - The ability to drag and drop policies from one page to another without having to reupload.

    My customer also mentioned that it would also be handy if they renamed a document in the attachments bar and then it downloaded as that name.

  6. It would be helpful to have an option to hide the published date on articles, especially for users who repurpose them for other purposes, such as job vacancies, or when the date is not relevant and could confuse visitors.

    A toggle within the 'Date' settings under the Edit menu when on the article would give users the flexibility to choose whether to display the date.

  7. Currently, when you crop an image in File Manager and confirm the crop, there is no way to undo it.

    This can be frustrating if an image is cropped incorrectly or accidentally.

    Adding an 'Undo Crop' option would provide users with more flexibility and prevent the need to re-upload the original image, improving workflow efficiency and user experience.

  8. It would be useful to have the option to type in the old URL of a page in the 'Customer Fields' section of the page settings.

    This would allow users to set up automatic 301 redirects from the old URL to the new one without needing manual intervention from the support team.

    Currently, when we change a Friendly URL, users who visit the old URL encounter a 404 error unless a manual redirect is set up.

    By adding a field for the old URL in the page settings, the system could automatically handle redirects, ensuring a smoother user experience and…

  9. To have the ability to have separate pages syncing separate outlook calendars. Not all staff have the same access and permissions to all the public calendars, which we would like to share on our website.
    So it would be useful if we can sync more than one across the website rather than just having categories.

  10. 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 …

  11. 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

  12. 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.

  13. 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…

  14. In the Parents’ Evening Booking add-on, it would be beneficial to have an option to set a specific break time for all teachers at once, rather than manually adding breaks for each teacher.

    This would streamline the process when all teachers take a break at the same time, saving time and effort.

    However, it’s still useful to retain the ability to manually add breaks for teachers who require different or multiple break times.

  15. 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.

  16. When using the Parents evening booking system can we have the ability to create multiple bookings per priority contact.

    Some children have parents/guardians who need to come to the parents evening separately . This would be good to be able to assign a child several bookings.

  17. It would be great to have the ability to display a photo album as a photo stack. It could add visual interest and some dimension to the pages. Maybe it would also be possible to use such a feature when adding news stories so that a number of photos from an event, for example, could be displayed alongside the story.

  18. After we enable the calendar sync for the user, they follow the setup guide to integrate their external Outlook or Google calendar with their website calendar.

    Currently, users must contact the support team to enable automatic sync.

    Without this, users need to manually sync their calendars by navigating to WEBSITE > Calendar Sync > Synchronise now each time they create a new event in their external calendar, which undermines the purpose of having calendar sync enabled in the first place.

    It would be beneficial if the CMS allowed administrators to enable automatic sync directly, removing the need to contact support.

  19. 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…

  20. Users would benefit from the ability to edit the logo on their website themselves, removing the need to contact us for updates.

    A clickable image icon when logged in could open the File Manager, allowing them to select and update their logo easily.
