Hello Monday! What better way to start the week than with some platform updates?
Category Image Requirement
If your platform uses the Community theme, an image is no longer required to create or edit a category. You can simply add a title and a description, and you're done!
If your platform uses the VideoFlix theme, images are still required for categories. This is because the interface of this theme relies heavily on images for a good visual experience.
You might be wondering, 'What if my platform is using the Community theme and my categories have no images, and then I decide to switch to the VideoFlix version?' Don't worry; we've already thought about that. In this case, a default image will be added to the categories. You can then replace the default image at any time.
Community Category Banner
We felt that the old banner style didn't match the community look and feel, so we made changes to use the exact same size and layout as the Home Screen banner.
This is the new banner layout, and this image will be the default if you switch to the VideoFlix theme.
New Card Hover Layout (VideoFlix theme)
The VideoFlix card has received a new layout update. It now displays the type of post and the level of access. The design looks cleaner and more polished, and the hover animation is amazing.
Thank you for your time. We hope you have an amazing week!
