Content Manager

Experience revamp: DIVA video upload, tag editor, user profile, and logs pages

The CMS user experience revamp brings clarity, speed, and control to everyday workflows. DIVA video uploads are now easier and tag management is simplified. Log and user profile viewing offers better visibility.

The redesigned interface reduces friction and lets editorial teams work more efficiently and confidently.

Custom entity search enhancement

The enhanced search engine is built to scale effortlessly to millions of items, ensuring fast (3.4x faster than before), reliable performance even as your content grows.

It introduces greater flexibility and enables partial word searches, allowing users to find relevant results with more nuanced queries. Searching content by terms, title, or slug and filtering by entity attributes make discovery more intuitive and powerful.

Small changes — but still important

UI/UX improvements:

• The language chips throughout the platform now display richer language-country combinations instead of flags.
• Improved content type readability in editorial selections.
• Better error messages now guide users through re-logging in after session expiry.
• More filtering options on entity overview pages.

Page Builder

Static images reuse

Producers can now upload, use, and reuse images in a few clicks. This saves time and makes the editorial team experience better.

Editors can also add information about images like captions, copyright, and alternate text. This information can be translated into language-specific versions and benefits both accessibility and SEO performance. Also, editors can set images' visibility per language, ensuring that fans enjoy the most suitable content (e.g. sponsorship, localized logos/brands, etc).

Extensible static text and static image modules

Modules extensibility empowers each digital solution to adapt with its unique audience and business needs. System administrators can now configure additional parameters for text and image modules in Page Builder, allowing producers to fine-tune layouts and appearances.

Using the same workflow as custom modules, teams can extend built-in modules to align with brand goals​ — supporting faster delivery of tailored, engaging, and scalable digital experiences.

Small changes — but still important

UI/UX Improvements:

• Accessibility: We redesigned editorial statuses (unpublished, published, and reviewed) supporting color vision deficiency.
• When listing pages in a folder, the PageType — which declares the page's rendering engine — displays for each page.
• When editing folders, new shortcuts are available to create a new child folder, a new child page, and a new menu.
• Page Builder streamlines URL variant management, allowing editors to quickly see which pages have custom URLs. Clear warnings prevent duplicate URLs.
