This update addresses the challenges of setting up and maintaining repeated content across multiple pages, making it easier to manage and ensuring consistent information throughout your site. The Challenge: Inefficient intranet content Managing content across an intranet often involves repetitive tasks, such as setting up blocks of content that need to be reused in multiple locations. Often, using the content on various pages, required creating them from scratch each time or duplicating entire pages. This manual process is not only time-consuming but also prone to errors and inconsistencies. If an update is needed, you must track down and modify every instance of the content, increasing the risk of outdated or conflicting information. Problems faced: Time-consuming setup for blocks of reusable content across multiple pages. Inability to update content in one place and see those changes reflected everywhere. Manual duplication leads to inconsistencies and potential errors across the site. Looking for intranet inspiration? Browse some of our award winning intranets.

With Shared Cards, you can create a piece of content once and use it wherever needed on your intranet which makes intranet management faster, more efficient, and reduces the time required to maintain content. What are Shared Cards? Shared Cards are reusable content rich text or quick links cards that can be inserted into multiple pages. Once a shared card is created, any updates made to that card are automatically reflected across all pages where it is used. This eliminates the need to recreate content from scratch or duplicate pages manually, ensuring your content remains consistent, accurate, and up-to-date. Why Shared Cards Easier content sharing: Create a shared card once, and use it anywhere across your intranet, whether on single pages or within templates. This flexibility saves time and simplifies the content creation process. Efficient updates: When you update a single shared card, the changes are instantly reflected across all instances where that card exists. This reduces the effort required to keep content current and consistent throughout your site. More accurate data: By updating a shared card in one location, you can be confident that the information is accurate and up-to-date everywhere it appears, eliminating the need to check each page individually for consistency. Shared Cards are ideal for content requiring consistency across multiple locations on your intranet. Whether it’s a rich text card with standard company information, or a quick links card for easy navigation, Shared Cards allow you to maintain control and accuracy without the repetitive work.
