Say Goodbye to News Articles & Hello to Blog RSS
ideaLEVER Solutions will soon be saying goodbye to the News Articles DropIn application,
along with an associated SiteCM Component: News Articles.
As part of our ongoing user interface update, News Articles will be retired and no longer be supported by the end of 2018.
We have found that our Blog component and the RSS Feed it generates gives our customers all of the same functionality as our News Component with much more flexibility. Our Blog component and RSS feed work hand in hand, offering the following:
- Blog category-based RSS Feeds.
- An updated User Interface already available to create great looking article related content.
- Updated Open Graph handling, when sharing posts on social media.
- Ease of Styling. The Blog RSS feed is already part of the responsive website layouts we offer which makes it easier to add
- Improved Search Engine optimization for blog post content, including Google related Sitemaps.
- Featured Images and the passing of featured image enclosures to the RSS feed.
We hope that you take advantage of our new Blog Component. To see how easy it is to use the RSS Feed Reader Drop-In, watch the video below.
We will keep you updated as to when the component is removed from our supported features list. Should you have any concerns, please feel free to leave your comments below, or contact us for support.
