Fresh out of the oven

Hi everyone,

Today, we're happy to announce that we published a series of videos covering how to use the new migration client released last month.

The first seven videos teach you how to make the most of the updated client, from discussing the base concepts to running a full migration script together 📜

Hey! 👋

We're happy to announce the release of Slice Machine v2.8.0, with, as promised the addition of a great enhancement for the link field: link text 🔥

🔗 Link Text

• We're upgrading our link field to make it easier for developers to create links with display text and style in slices while providing a simpler experience for marketers in the Page Builder.
• As a first milestone we are introducing the ability to allow a text property in link fields that let marketers add a display text such as "Get started" in their links. On the developer side we also updated the PrismicLink SDK to support the new text property.

How to use it?

In Slice Machine, add a link field in one of your slices or Custom Type / Page Type. By default the new text property will be activated. Save your field and push your changes to your Page Builder.

In the Page Builder, add the slice to a page and start editing your link. You will see that now you can add a display text to your link.

How does this simplify your workflow?

Instead of having to manually add a key text field to all your links, you can simply use this property in your link fields that require a display text.

Stay tuned, this is only our first milestones, we're coming back with even more enhancements to the link field and the way you build slices with Prismic.

Hey there! 👋

I'm excited to share that our Developer Tools team at Prismic has started working on adding table functionality to your pages.

The team is currently in the discovery phase, identifying key use cases and challenges with current solutions. We’re iterating on designs and will soon conduct a round of user interviews to gather more insights.

So far, we’ve identified two main use cases we aim to address:

Tables in rich content

The most common use cases we’re observing include comparison articles (e.g., “Us vs. Them”), financial information tables, and documentation tables. Here are a few examples:

Example from Digital Ocean documentation

Example from LVMH public investors website

Pricing and feature comparison tables

We believe these use cases involve more advanced requirements, such as creating complex tables with CTAs, tooltips, conditional logic, and additional styling options. Here are a few examples:

Example from Cloudfare pricing page

Example from Slite pricing page

Stay tuned! We’ll have more updates on this project by the end of the year!
