Event Calendar Image Alt Text
In regards to new ADA requirements, does the website event calendar need to add an alt text field for images used for a calendar event?
The images on the event calendar should be purely decorative and there is some help text by the image upload where it says that. There are lots of cases where the images wouldn’t even be displayed.
Require Login for CMS Pages
I know this has been answered somewhere, but I need help with certain pages requiring a UNL login. Could someone point me in the right direction?
When you edit a page, you’ll see this on the right now – between URL alias and Authoring information:
WebAudit Metrics

- WATCH YOUR LINKS! With all sites live in the new system, some links may have changed. CMS sites have a built-in page (Reports → Top 'page not found' errors) that shows a list of URLs that users are visiting that result in Not Found being shown.
CMS updates
Items Scheduled for deployment Wednesday, September 10
MathJax Integration: Enable MathJax support within CKEditor for rendering mathematical formulas. The default math delimiters are $$...$$ and \[…\] for displayed mathematics, and $…$ and \(…\) for in- line mathematics.
Scheduler Module: Adds the ability to schedule content for publishing and unpublishing at specified dates and times in the future.
New Custom Icons: Katie Black from UComm has created new custom icons, which Ryan has optimized and uploaded. The custom additions are named “nu-“ for discoverability. These include several ag and animal-related icons as well as UNL specific icons like the library cupola, NU penant, and state outline.
Vertical Alignment of Components: Adds the ability to vertically align all components within a Section.
Proof Point Component: The text and headers are now center-aligned.
Simple Media Component: Fix for shadow issue when a Mediahub video is embedded
Group Subsite Menu Secondary Links: Updates have been made to resolve issues where secondary links in the Group Menu navigation were not appearing. (If this is not a group site and you're experiencing this issue, it may be due to an unpublished page linked in the menu navigation. Let us know about any issues with the menu dropdown.)
Simple Media Aspect Ratio: The chosen aspect ratio for media using the Simple Media component will remain the same across different browser widths.
