Posts

Posts is the Mindful CMS term to refer to the various content types collectively. The breakdown of content types (article, news, press release, whitepaper, etc) are still in-use. From the main browse page, click on 'new post' to access the various content types and create a new post.

Inline Styling The new CMS offers inline styling options for titles, decks, and teasers. Anywhere you see </> offers inline styling options.

Highlight the word(s) you want to style and the inline styling box wil appear

Teaser and Deck Fields The teaser field remains unchanged aside from inline styling. 🆕 A "deck" field, previously called "magazine deck," is now optional for display on the website and allows for different text in lists versus on the article page.

Improved WYSIWYG Editor and Image Uploads The new system features an improved WYSIWYG editor with enhanced stability and multimedia embedding capabilities. Image uploads support newer formats like WEBP and AVIF, and the "featured" image is automatically assigned to the first uploaded image (which can be changed as more images are uploaded).

Image Editing Features New image editing features include inline styling, cropping, fitting, flipping, rotating, and focal point adjustments. The "face area" setting is useful for centering headshots and the "focal point" option allows for precise image focusing. Padding adjustments allow for controlling the space around images.

Publishing and Autosaving Publishing requires selecting at least one topic, with the first selected topic becoming the primary one. When additional topics are chosen, any one of them can be made primary. 🆕 Multi-Site Partners: A primary topic can be chosen for each site

The system autosaves changes made in each field as the user moves to a new field.

Note the blue 'circle' in the image - that's the autosave doing its job.

Preview and Short URL A preview feature opens a new tab, displaying the article with special URL parameters, preventing the article from being publicly accessible before publishing. The "copy short URL" feature remains accessible, providing a shortened link for sharing on social media.
