Optimization of the Team-pages
New icons for the standard information in the team overview
The contact information for team members has been extended by some icons and now offers a more harmonious look and more clarity independent of language.
The team overview pages are ideal if you would like to introduce certain contact persons, employees, photographers or management in more detail on your website or make them findable as contact persons.
The new icons are automatically displayed on the website once the individual parameters for the persons have been stored.
Bring more dynamics to your web pages
For many page elements, including paragraphs, news and team members, a subtle animation effect can be selected when scrolling. The option for this so-called fade effect can be switched on and off via the menu.
