It makes it easy to explain complex topics related to your knowledge and experience. ArcGIS StoryMaps is updated regularly with new features and capabilities, and here\u2019s what\u2019s been added recently:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"#collection-description\">Collection description<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#reset-metadata\">Reset story card info<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#accessibility-updates\">Accessibility updates<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#classic-website\">Classic website retired<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#more\">And more&#8230;<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h1 id=\"collection-description\" style=\"scroll-margin-top: 70px;\">Collection description<\/h1>\n<p>Collections are a great way to group together a set of stories and related resources. Our team uses collections all the time to <a href=\"https:\/\/arcg.is\/14qP08\">create a set of tutorials<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/arcg.is\/05q0v90\">group stories on similar topics<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/arcg.is\/1WPm8n\">bundle stories that are chapters in one longer narrative<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Many authors in the storytelling community have asked for more space to provide descriptive information for a collection. Others have asked for the ability to use links and other formatting. Now, you have more options\u2014and more space\u2014to provide introductory material or context on the overview page when you create a collection. In addition to the title, byline\/author name, and summary, there is now a new <em>description<\/em> field.<\/p>\n<p>The summary is still ideal for providing a short subtitle for your collection, but now the description field is also available for adding a longer introduction or more background about the contents of a collection. In addition to being longer than the summary, the new description can contain <em>formatted text<\/em>. Now you can include links, lists, and flourishes of color on the collection overview to communicate your message. To format text, just select it and use the toolbar or use one of the standard keyboard shortcuts (if you need a reminder about how to use these shortcuts, make sure you keep reading&#8230;).<\/p>\n<p>This collection has a description so you can see what it looks like in a live example: <a href=\"https:\/\/storymaps.arcgis.com\/collections\/b374d444bb3340fb82165712903e4991\">2022 ArcGIS StoryMaps Competition Winners<\/a>, and of course we have a video for you to enjoy, below.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"kaltura","video_id":"1_1yh5s3jg","time":false,"start":0},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The summary and description fields are both optional, but we recommend including a summary for collections you plan to share publicly since that piece of information is shown when your collection is shared on social media sites or when people discover it via web search results. The three main fields on the collection overview page nicely match up with the corresponding ArcGIS item detail fields of the same names (title, summary, and description). When publishing, the description text will be automatically added to the description for your collection&#8217;s ArcGIS item details, but you can choose to disable this update in the publish options.<\/p>\n<p>If you haven&#8217;t made a collection yet, check out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis-storymaps\/sharing-collaboration\/start-your-first-arcgis-storymaps-collection\/\">Start Your First ArcGIS StoryMaps Collection<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/arcg.is\/0TKqWv\">this tutorial<\/a>\u00a0to get started.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h1 id=\"reset-metadata\" style=\"scroll-margin-top: 70px;\">Reset story card info<\/h1>\n<p>It&#8217;s a good practice to customize the social metadata for your content items. This is the information (title, summary, and thumbnail image) that is shown to others when your story is shared on social media sites or when it appears in web search results. You can update this information in the <strong>Story card<\/strong>\u00a0panel of the <strong>Publish options<\/strong> screen.<\/p>\n<p>Now, if you need to reset previous changes you&#8217;ve made to this information, you can do that with a single click. The <strong>Reset<\/strong> button will appear next to the <strong>Edit<\/strong> button in the <strong>Story card<\/strong> panel after you&#8217;ve made changes (or it will be there if you&#8217;ve previously made changes). This new reset capability is also available for collections.<\/p>\n<p>Review the video below to see how easy it is to reset changes you&#8217;ve made to a story&#8217;s social metadata.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"kaltura","video_id":"1_bq2dsymi","time":false,"start":0},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h1 id=\"accessibility-updates\" style=\"scroll-margin-top: 70px;\">Accessibility updates<\/h1>\n<p>Our team is always working to improve accessibility of ArcGIS StoryMaps for people both reading and building stories.
