Thank you to everyone who provided their feedback on the Web Editor Blog survey released in March 2022.
We are committed to providing our web editor community useful and relevant resources to support you with your editing duties.
Without regular review and care, your website’s documents can quickly morph into a sprawling incubator of outdated and forgotten content. Here’s five expert tasks to help you get your site documents ship-shape.
Brands influence, inspire and persuade.
At La Trobe, our brand expresses who we are. It helps communicate our values and brings our personality to life. It’s confident and contemporary. Colourful and consistent. It stands out from the crowd.
Has your site moved to La Trobe’s new Design System (DS)?
The Design System helps make La Trobe’s website and all sub-sites consistent in their design and layout of information.
DS components can be used in the Content Management System (CMS) to present your site information more clearly, break up large areas of text and make information more accessible to users. The DS also ensures users have similar brand and design experiences with all University interfaces. View examples in our DS component library.
Here’s some examples of the DS components with guidance on how they can be best used to enhance your site’s landing page.
Now the University has kicked into gear, we turn our attention to the year ahead – a time to welcome the newcomers, review your CMS site and begin tidy-ups.
Hyperlinks are used to help users navigate around a website. Their purpose is to connect pages, images and documents to one another to either internal pages or external websites.
As a Siteimprove editor you’ll receive a dashboard for your microsite. This dashboard provides an overview of your site’s health and identifies quality assurance issues e.g. broken links, misspellings, long sentences.
As part of the University Transformation, our team are working in partnership to make priority changes to the website to reflect the new model.
Want to never miss a spelling mistake or broken link again? We have a tool that can help you!
Web Operations would like to introduce you to Siteimprove, a new tool to help identify quality assurance errors across your site.
