It would be good to be able to say, show the most recent 10 articles that are tagged 'featured' etc.
The default style is "DDth Month YYYY" but it would be good to have other options (for example, I prefer "Month DD, YYYY")
I want to change the menu item text size, but right now you can only change the logo text size.
Currently only sections are able to be shifted up/down a page. Blocks deserve that feature too so that we do not have to drag and drop individual blocks.
Right now PDFs can't be uploaded if they are bigger than 15Mb, we want to add support for bigger files if they can be compressed.
Allow the import of multiple files at once into galleries (images) and articles (images or PDF).
Allow individual blocks (not just sections) to be duplicated.
Add the ability to change the page title (that appears in the browser tab) independently from the page name that appears int he navigation.
Could we have the ability to set the number of articles we want to show before the load more button appears?
Add an integration for GA4 so we can start collecting some historical data before Google fully makes the switch to the new analtyics.
Please add the ability to select a focal point for photos so that preview images show the correct part of the image. For example, without a focal point selector tool, the preview image might crop a person's head out of a photo.
I'd like to view a specific theme and see how it looks with my portfolio details without deleting the current theme. Also, the ability to rollback changes made to the site will massively help. For example, I'd like to see how a picture or a theme looks on the site and if it doesn't look good, I can quickly change it with the rollback feature. Then I don't have to start over again with the design and arrangement.
Allow users to share their 'Goodreads' page (https://www.goodreads.com/) using a designated social media icon
Specific analytics for each article, instead of general metrics on site or page visits. We want to be able to see how many people read a particular piece
Instead of just having the option to password protect the whole site, make it possible to password protect individual articles.
It would be great to have some control over the weekly subscriber update email, e.g. the subject line/headline and text of the email, and the order in which articles are shown, when one has multiple new articles. This could be done through an editable Preview of the subscriber message. Eventually, the frequency and/or timing of subscriber updates would be great to control, too.
Add a column to the subscriber list showing "Date Unsubscribed" if/when someone unsubscribes.
Currently announcements to subscribers of new articles are from "noreply@journoportfolio.com." Although the "reply-to" field is from me and the "subject" field has my name in it, the "noreply" signals that it might be spam or spamlike. Anecdotally some recipients reflexively trash messages from "noreply," and I suspect some spam filters may do likewise. I suggest that "From" be from the portfolio creator, our name simply (as in "reply-to"), and the subject could perhaps be "New addition to my portfolio". Thanks for considering.
Adding ability to embed Instagram feed, similar to ability to embed Twitter feed.
Would it be possible for article URLs to be customised? So that we can only feature the keywords - for better SEO purposes!
Can we add more descriptors to the user directory? In the first menu, I'd love to see options for creative writing, especially to specify fiction/poetry/essayist. In the "specialism" section, there's nothing specifically for literature (like writers who do book reviews, author interviews, etc.) There's culture and art, but not books. Also, there's no option for criticism/reviews.
I'd love to be able to sort articles alphabetically, or have additional options.
Many creatives find Pinterest to be a useful tool for marketing/networking. Would appreciate being able to add the linkable icon to my main page - thanks much!
Most of the images that get automatically uploaded with the articles end up in a diffrent framing, if they are not square, and as a result they may look quite strange. I’d love to have a small online editor that allowed me to at least reframe the images the way I want — and possibly add filters and small edits to make things look even greater!
Those of us who plan on archiving our entire career’s work need something to bulk/batch edit the tags, Publication, and blocks for multiple stories at once. Being forced to go in and edit each individual story is time consuming and exhausting. I love the service and hope you’ll consider adding this.
I like the gallery presentation with thumbnails compared to the image slider. However the added functionality to hit previous/next (or a left/right arrow) when in the expanded view would be much more user-friendly than clicking off and onto another image each time. Thanks.
Unless I somehow missed out on a way to do this, I would really like a feature that allows us to give photo credit for images we upload.
It would be very useful to be able to edit, especially add links to, the Text Extract field. Alternatively, develop a 4th way to create Articles that has an editable text field (without also creating a blog).
A couple of users have suggested or asked about adding sub-pages or a way to add pages as dropdowns in the portfolio navigation. Another related suggestion was to have multiple article blocks on a page automatically appear as a dropdown with the page 'Jumping' down to the block when clicked. We think these are good ideas and have begun investigating how they would work and how they can be implemented.
Suggested by a couple of users is the ability to change the Favicon that appears on your website. We currently do not have plans to add this but will re-assess this in the near future.
We are working on adding a PDF export option which would be useful for when you need a way to share your portfolio offline. The initial option will have a fixed design and fixed format, but will be expanded to add more customisation options later.
