We have a couple of important updates to share: improvements to York Module naming for better clarity and consistency, and anew DAY Faculty Showcase feature added to Module 37 to help highlight faculty profiles connected with Discover York Academics (DYA). Please see the details below.
1. York Module Naming Update
We’ve updated the naming of York Modules to make them easier to distinguish from standard WordPress modules. All York Modules will now start with a capitalized “MODULE” for clarity and consistency. For example, our accordion module is named “MODULE #10 – Accordion”, while default WordPress modules might appear as “10.Accordion” or simply “Accordion.”
Please ensure you use the York Modules when building website so that everything renders correctly and aligns with our brand standards.
2. New DAY Faculty Showcase Module Now Available
We’ve added a new Faculty Showcase feature to Module 37 (https://www.yorku.ca/digitalexperiencehub/modules-library/module-37/) to help you showcase faculty profiles more effectively. This feature is similar to other faculty showcases but focuses on highlighting information consistent with Discover York Academics (DYA).
The goal is to present a quick snapshot of a few faculty members and encourage visitors to explore their full DYA profiles for more details. While you can include as many faculty members as needed, we recommend keeping the total under 20 for the best user experience.
As always if you have any questions please reach out to our web team at cpadigit@yorku.ca or join us for our weekly drop-in sessions for more hands-on support, taking place every Wed. at 1:30pm. Invite link can be found here: LINK.
