New functionality
Ad/campaign landing page template: we're very excited to announce the release of a new page template available to you all for the purpose of building ad or campaign landing pages! We'll be hosting a training workshop tomorrow (November 11, 2021) during our community meeting in which you will get a in-depth walk through of how to set this up. More to come on this!
Enhancements to current functionality
Roboto font: as announced on November 4th, due to a recent increase in the licensing costs, it has been decided to move from the current Helvetica Neue font, wherever in use on CU Denver|Anschutz web sites, to the Roboto font, which is available via an open source license.
Our web teams, as well as both the CU Anschutz and CU Denver University Communications teams, have conducted a review of potential impacts to Sitefinity widgets, content types and templates prior to the planned implementation of this change.
We have made adjustments to styling (such as in content types, headers, footers) so that there will be minimal styling discrepancies when the new font is released.
**However, if your site contains a custom code exception, please be advised that you will need to review those instances and potentially update once our code release is complete.
Reset option for categories: when site visitors are interacting with your category filters, there will now be an option for them to clear/reset the filters applied so that they can go back to the main list.
Academic Program detail view: the "application deadlines" field has now been moved up to a more prominent position in the detail view.
