This feature is currently a part of prospectus.essex.ac.uk and is planned to be rolled out across all prospectus instances at some point.

We have the Course Sync add-on, and we have tried to add additional content to courses, but we are currently losing this work as our pages are re-syncing every day and losing any changes that we have made. As a result, it would be useful to have an additional input area where we could add additional information that would not be overridden by the course sync process.

Since launch, the show me everything feature has been the source of a number of questions. There is some confusion over how it works. Internally this has led to debate over whether it should remain in its current form, whether it would benefit from some updates, or whether it should be removed as a feature entirely. Show me everything offers users the option to quickly access content, without the proceeding through personalisation steps. Users are presented with a filtered list of all content (showing courses by default). Users can search a category, or switch to another category (categories align with prospectus rows). Show me everything is a configurable option, switched off by dafault. Our recommendation is always to push as many users as possible through personalisation. This provides them with the best UX and most relevant experience, whilst also providing the most value to you as an organisation (through data capture and analytics). In some scenarios we understand that the show me everything view is most widely used by careers advisors who need to jump to course information as quickly as possible. In these cases the button text has been updated to keep the feature active whilst deterring prospects from using this view. We'd love to hear your thoughts. Does the show me everything feature provide value? Would you prefer it didn't exist? How would you adapt it to fit the needs of your institution and your users?

I am logging this on behalf of multiple CMS users who have informally requested this. This would programatically provide 'next' and 'previous' buttons to allow users to cycle through the single pages/courses of their rows without the need to revisit the prospectus overview.

A current Prospectus Plus customer highlighted a crucial compliance issue with automated translations in specific international jurisdictions. Automated translations, while convenient, may breach certain international compliance standards, particularly in regulated sectors like education. Therefore, manual or alternative translation processes may be necessary to ensure legal compliance across markets. Currently, Prospectus Plus does not support localisation options for all User Interface (UI) elements (some elements arecontrolable through environmental variables), and the only feasible solution for content translation is through the creation of separate prospectus instances. However, this approach is cumbersome and does not address UI translation, which leaves key pages, such as the “Sign In” page, untranslated. ## Proposed Solution: Modular Translation Development To meet both compliance needs and user experience expectations, a two-phase translation feature is proposed: 1. User Interface Translation Module * Scope: Enable translation of all UI elements, including navigational components, login/sign-in pages, and key instructional texts. * Requirement: This module should allow administrators to manually input translated terms for each UI element or select from pre-verified translations if available. * Consideration: Include compliance alerts that notify administrators when using automated translations could potentially breach local regulations, encouraging manual verification. 2. Content Translation Module * Scope: Offer a content translation feature that operates separately from UI, allowing for content-specific localisation while supporting legal compliance. * Implementation Options: * Manual Translations: Admins could manually enter translations for each content block. * Dual-instance Management: Streamline the creation of dual prospectus instances that share backend settings but offer different language options. This reduces redundancy and improves manageability. * Compliance Checkpoints: Integrate a checklist for admins to review and verify translated content before publication, reinforcing regulatory adherence. ## Benefits This phased translation approach provides: * Compliance: Ensures adherence to international translation standards, especially for regulated markets. * Enhanced User Experience: Offers a seamless experience for non-native speakers with translated UI and content. * Efficiency: Reduces the need for multiple instances, streamlining the translation process without compromising Prospectus Plus’s personalisation and analytics capabilities

It would be useful to have a more detail. We can currently see the courses that users are most engaged with but it would be helpful to see the number of engagements across all courses. This would help us to measure the impact of any work we do to increase interest for less popular courses. For the date fields it would be useful if we could specify the time frame for comparison reasons. The week/month/year/all time is a little restrictive.

We would like to be able to add a sliding gallery of images. Could this be made possible and/or could we add a plug in to achieve this?

Users have commented about the scroll position on the prospectus. When flicking back and forward through pages, the prospectus does not remeber where the user was up to. This is an issue as it requires the user to remember which row and card they were up to and manually scroll back to it. From a UX point of view, it is not as streamlined as we hoped.

We use Trello with our website developers - a system like this would be useful to track and monitor queries and responses.
