Click on a destination folder in the navigation tree before creating an asset. Otherwise, Cascade will try to create the asset in the last selected folder or the root folder of your site. Of course you can always move something that was created in the wrong place, but why not avoid the hassle?

• @designsbyday Thanks for attending the webinar! #rwd #cascadeserver #

Earlier this week Justin Schoonmaker and I presented a client webinar for Hannon Hill on our new homepage design and how we integrated it with Cascade Server. We explored the goals for the project, the design process, implementation, user response and future plans, as well as took lots of great questions from the attendees during the 70 minute webinar.

The slidedeck is online at Slideshare and a full recording of the webinar has been made available by Hannon Hill if you are interested in checking it out.

What do you think of our responsive design? If you have any questions on how/why we did it, let us know in the comments!

The Griffin is celebrating Admitted Students Day with a special surprise for transfers and the class of 2016!

William & Mary’s mobile app, Dress the Griffin, has been updated with a surprise for newly admitted students as well as a new waterman’s outfit inspired by our fellow tribesmen at the Virginia Institute of Marine Science.

If you don’t already have the app, download it now. Your iPhone, iPad and Android devices are naked without it!

Spam bots feast on emails found in web pages but we’ve got a simple trick in Cascade to hide ours. In the editor place w| in front of a username and surround it with square brackets, for example [[w|txjeff]]. Bots only see “useless” text inside brackets and crawl away. Browsers on the other hand will convert the username into a functional @wm.edu email link, in this case txjeff@wm.edu.

Same trick works for @email.wm.edu, @vims.edu and @mason.edu addresses as well as the department addresses @cs.wm.edu, @math.wm.edu and @physics.wm.edu. Just replace w| in the example with e|, v|, m|, cs|, math| or physics| respectively.

Details in the help pages. This also works in your Tribe Voices site, Tribe Responses and W&M Events!
