Spaces updates

With our recently released spaces feature, we have improved the redirection. When you create a space, we will now preserve the context of the page list for you so you can stay in the flow. Previously, when you performed actions on your spaces, such as creating/updating/deleting a space, you would lose the current context of the page list. For example, if you were in the Main Space and applied the 'blog' type filter, the filter wouldn’t persist before - but now it does.

Copy to a locale

• We have added the ability for users to copy pages from a locale where they have read-only access. For example, you are a writer in the French locale but have read-only access to the English locale, then now (from the page list) you can select the pages you want and copy them from the English locale to the French locale, speeding up your process of translating and customising content across locales.

Bug fixes

• An image in rich text is no longer overlapping the text.
• The edit and delete buttons for linked media are now visible.
• Long titles now appear in the Page Builder via a tooltip.
• Pages without titles no longer break the link-to-page modal, ensuring users see a list of their pages instead of an error screen.
• Intercom banners no longer push content down or cause a layout shift.
• Dropdown items no longer have duplicated borders.
• Typing certain characters (e.g., :) or ;) in the search bar no longer crashes the app.
• Content in the page list is now scrollable.
• Hitting Enter on "Create a New Release" now creates the release without reloading the page.
• Users trying to access a deleted page are now redirected to the page list with a toast message indicating the page no longer exists.
• Links are now appearing as 'blue' in the link field making it easier to distinguish that they are links

We've been improving the link field to make it more versatile and user-friendly. When adding a button to your slice, you often need more than just a URL. You might need link text, multiple links (e.g., primary and secondary calls to action in a hero slice), or the ability to style buttons to reflect their hierarchy of importance.

To deliver value incrementally, we've worked in iterations, and now we’re excited to share that link variants are officially live!

With this update, you can not only add link text and make your links or buttons repeatable, but you can now also style your buttons more easily using variants.

How to get started

In Slice Machine:

1. Add a link field to your slice or page.
2. Open the field settings.
3. Enable link variants by toggling the feature on.
4. Edit the default variants or create new ones.
5. Push your updates to your repository

Then in the Page Builder you can simply select variants directly within your link fields.

How this simplifies your workflow

Previously, you’d need to create a separate select field in Slice Machine and manually add button variants. Now, the built-in variant functionality in link fields allows you to handle these tasks with less effort and fewer steps.

We're excited to announce the launch of spaces, a powerful new way to organize and manage your website content in the Page Builder.

As your website grows, keeping content organized becomes increasingly challenging. Spaces are designed to help marketing teams of all sizes work more efficiently by providing an intuitive organization system for your website content.

What's new?

Spaces lets you organize your page types into dedicated areas that match how your teams work. Whether you're managing product pages, landing pages, blog posts, or legal content, you can now create distinct spaces for each content type, allowing your team to:

• Jump right into work with immediate access to relevant content
• Navigate effortlessly between different areas of your website
• Work more autonomously within designated spaces
• Boost productivity by reducing time spent searching for content

We're starting to roll it out to everyone

We believe in supporting teams at every stage of growth, which is why we're making spaces available to all repositories. Start organizing your content early and set your team up for scalable success.

Getting started

Ready to start organizing your website content into dedicated hubs? Here's how to get started:

1. Talk to your Prismic admin: If you're a non-admin user, reach out to your Prismic administrator to discuss your content organization needs and how spaces can help.
2. Plan your spaces: Decide how you want to group your content - divide your existing page types based on how your team works. Don't overthink it, you can always change your mind later.
3. Assign content to spaces: Your Prismic admin can start moving page types and custom types into the relevant spaces.

Let us know if you have any questions as you start using spaces. Our support team and community is always happy to share best practices and respond to your questions on our community forum.

Making the most of spaces (tips from Prismic's website team)

Now that you have access to the new spaces feature in Prismic, let's explore some best practices to help you organize your content and optimize your team's workflow.

Organizing by team or use case

The key to getting the most value from spaces is to think strategically about how to structure your content. Consider grouping pages and custom content types based on areas of website that your different teams manage. For example:

• Blog space for your content marketing team that contains all different page and custom types that fall under blog.
• Landing pages for your demand generation team that contain page types relating to your campaigns.
• Product marketing pages for your product marketing team that contain page types such as features and product pages.
• Legal pages for your legal team that contain sensitive content.

The goal is to minimize the time your team spends searching for the right content and maximize their ability to work autonomously within their assigned spaces.

What’s next?

In our next release, we'll be introducing custom roles and permissions for each space. This will allow you to:

• Protect sensitive content: Ensure only authorized users can edit critical pages like your homepage, navigation, or legal sections.
• Empower contributors: Grant editing access to team members who need to frequently update the content within their assigned spaces.
• Maintain oversight: Admins can still review and approve changes across all spaces to maintain brand and content consistency.

Start planning how you want to structure roles and permissions now so you're ready to implement them when the feature becomes available.

Custom roles and permissions will be available for enterprise plans as an add-on. Contact our sales team to learn more about it.
