Popular content styles now available in Cascade for all sites in the new template
May 7, 2014
We have long recommended adding content styles (aka HTML “classes”) to certain types of links. The most popular are links to:
When the content styles are applied, they make a small grey icon show up letting people know what type of link it is. (See above.)
We have made an update to all Cascade sites in the new template that makes doing this a little bit easier for you. Before, not all the styles were available for everyone and you had to add them by editing the HTML. Now, everyone in the new template has the most popular styles available to them from the drop down class box in the Cascade link editor.

History site launched
June 2014
History has recently relaunched their site in the new template.
The Summer Session 2014 site launched on February 14, 2014. This site refresh was headed up by of the Office of the Registrar.
This site has some information about fees, course add/drop dates for the summer session that is not in the regular Academic Calendar. It also has a listing of courses that are offered this summer. These courses are also listed in the Academic Calendar, but they are not in one easy to find place. Having a listing of courses offered this summer on page help students with the scheduling. People who manage academic sites may want to consider adding links to this content, if you haven't already.
Also, you may find it interesting to check out the search and filter widget, which Systems developed. This allows site visitors to look for courses based on faculty, level and keywords.
Education has relaunched in the new template with some navigational changes. Their new site features videos made for each department, which is something to consider for your own area.

March 2014
A new website has recently launched for the Government Relations Officers Conference (GRO) 2014. It’s a good example of a conference site and how the UVic template can work with a small amount of content.

This site has done really a great job of using engaging photos extensively throughout the site, including some taken by Photo Services and people from their department. They've done an especially great job in the Future Students section.
Like many academic sites, there is a button from the homepage linking to a page about Possible Careers. This is information we know students/parents want to read, so it's great to see that is is so easy to find.
