New and Updated

Title Details Date Changed
Site Managers' Start Guide New - A checklist guide for Site Managers looking to complete the essential steps when building a new site.
Feature Box Updated - The Feature Box documentation now includes a sidebar with link to the blog post "When I try to edit my page, the WYSIWYG is blank". This is the fix solution if an image was inserted in a Feature Box prior to the CKEditor 5 upgrade.

"Why and how did my user's account status change?" New - Our programmatic tie-in to the campus' Identity Access Management service means that user accounts will be blocked if they ever separate from UC Davis. This tie-in also leverages the IAM service to support the campus' Gender Recognition & Lived Name Initiative when Site Managers create an account based on the user's Kerberos ID information.
Insert HTML New - Insert HTML allows users to include an code snippet directly into the flow of their page content without the need to convert the page's Text Format from Basic to Full HTML. This element has been designed specifically to work with Aggie Video and support playlists from the service. Be aware that code added in this context that is not from Aggie Video is subject to the limitations of what code tags can be used in the Basic HTML format; CSS and JS will be stripped out completely on Save. Consider still using Full HTML embed if these are issues of concern.
Prepping images Updated - To assist in managing space and processing resources, you should crop or resize your image's pixel dimensions to a maximum of 2000x2000. Overages may result in an image's failure to upload to or display on your site.
How to publish your site to the web Updated - Step 1 has been divided up into a part a) and b) to include new documentation for making sure sites with custom content types are included in a site's sitemap xml output.

Layout Builder Orientation Updated - The orientation screenshot has been updated to reflect the change to the content preview section (#12) which has been changed from a checkbox with text to an icon button of an eye. Text/formatting has also been added for the Publication status for easier reading.
Make custom content types visible to your sitemap and SEO New - If you have custom content types or need to create them in the future, make sure to update your site's Simple XML Sitemap settings to ensure they're included in the sitemap for improved navigation, SEO, and accessibility. Changes made are subject to the chron schedule, which means it may take as long as 4 hours for your sitemap.xml file to update.
Text formats and embedding code Updated - Text format information has been updated to include the availability of the Insert HTML icon feature for easily embedding iframe tags into the flow of your page while still in the Basic HTML text format.
