It would be beneficial to have the "important update" save work on assets other than just articles. This could be useful for table and html assets. For example, we publish data or stats as tables. In some cases we replace the table with updated information and it would be helpful or the reader to know that new information is indeed available in the table.

Since we launched Flex, we have been seeing high volume of unfilled impressions. I am sure it is because of the class hidden-xs etc, hiding the ad on a small device and not removing it. Anyway to fix this? I am attempting to switch the class names to use visible-sm etc to see if that makes a difference.

Expandable ads. Advertisers love them, the majority of us hates them. A potential middle ground could be allow the expandable to auto-expand a set number of times per a set period. We have great functionality to restrict the display of an ad to XX times per YY minutes/hours/days. Is that possible for auto-expand?

We would like to see a date block function (similar to AdOwl) so people can't pick certain dates for publications.

1. What problem would this solve?

We have a notation under the dates saying there is a mandatory 11 day waiting period, but people still will pick dates within that time period. We then get people complaining because their submission didn't run in the date they wanted (even though it was under the 11 day period).

2. Why the implementation is needed

This would halt any submissions that try to circumvent the required turnaround time from when the form is submitted to when it will run in the publication.

3. How often would it be used

We currently have 6 forms just for our Celebrations publication that is used all the time by people to submit Anniversaries, Weddings, Birthdays, Retirements etc. We also have other forms that would use this function as well (Letters to the Editor, Obits etc.)

4. How many would use this function

These are forms to get information to run in different publications, so multiple people would benefit from this function.

This is a two part post. The first part is to suggest a "PSA" topic type for community.townnews.com similar to the "Ideas" "Questions" "Praises." If there's a trick we've learned that isn't template busting or anything it would be cool to be able to share that, especially if it isn't included in help.bloxcms.com. So for the first PSA...

For those of you who use FLEX if you ever want to make use of the text icons you see here and there on your site you can add tons of other fonts. FLEX uses a font called FontAwesome to deliver vector icons. What icons does this include? Check here to see a list of icons: http://fontawesome.io/icons/.

It seems like they only have those listed under "Web Application Icons" and not those included in 4.6. You can even click the icon and it will tell you what code to put on your site.

So if my site had a Harry Potter section and we wanted to include a somewhere we just have to put: <i class="fa fa-bolt" aria-hidden="true"></i>

Have fun!

Hi, Does anyone recommend a third party software for a lightbox or pop up that allows visitors to subscribe to your emails right from the pop up? I am looking for suggestions!

We did it!

Check out our newsletter sign up here - http://www.utdailybeacon.com/multimedia/

We're still testing because there are still some funky issues.

1. Constant Contact registers 3 instances of the same email, for some reason.

2. The pop up doesn't fully close after signup.

Any tips or suggestions are welcomed, please and thank you!

Is there a way to have mapping as an option on the flex block : Business card : Business (Flex).

The block for Calendar: Card Event has a mapping option. It would be nice to have mapping as an option for the business blocks as well.

Thanks,

Sarah

How come when you type replies in articles comment section paragraphs are not allowed?

Thanks.

Additionally this could be expanded to allow site designers to develop blocks that would dynamically deliver the most relevant content based on a users location i.e. weather, news, offers, etc.

Something in the Flex template is forcing the capital even though the user is entering it lower. You can see this on our keyword tags displaying on detail pages.

See this sample: http://www.burlingtoncountytimes.com/life-style/local-feature/photos-mansfield-business-turns-to-the-internet-to-sell-environmentally/collection_97510d74-211e-11e6-99b0-176ff8d7cb54.html

Screengrab of keywords entered lower in the admin:

Screengrab of keywords forced upper on the front end:

Can this be changed (we shouldn't force capital letters for style and accuracy reasons) in UTL or in the template so that it reflects throughout the entire site? I put a ticket in but was told if this were modified it would take us off the upgrade path. Would other customers benefit from a fix like so?

Can someone tell me how schedules interact if there are more than one active on the page? I've tried dragging one schedule above the other one to see if that one takes precedence but I wasn't able to do that.

Please let me know if there's currently a way to work this with the paywall. If not, the idea is:

A temporary 'subscription' option where a non-subscriber could be offered a limited-time access to hard-paywalled content if they submitted their email address to be added to a list.

For example, if we had a new product we wanted to promote by email campaign, and we wanted to quickly build a distribution list, we turned on a month-long access to paywalled content on the website for non-subscribers. When they hit the paywall on the article, they would be prompted to purchase a subscription or - for a limited time - submit their email for that new product promotion.
