A sneak peak at our new website design.
The Christian Chronicle is changing — for the better.
In the coming days, look for a redesigned version of our website, christianchronicle.org. The new site, designed by Travis Langley of WebDexterous, has an improved look and expanded features. You’ll be able to leave comments on stories using a variety of multimedia platforms, including Facebook.
You’ll also be able to enjoy all the features of our site — including videos and photo galleries — on your smartphone or tablet computer.
This news blog is changing, too. For three years, we have used this space to bring you up-to-the-minute news from Churches of Christ, in a WordPress blog that is “separate and apart” from our main site.
In our new format, we’ll incorporate these blog posts (renamed “News Extras”) into our main website. We’re transferring all of the content from this blog to the new site, so it will be searchable in our archives.
A few “pardon our progress” notes as we make the transition:
• From now on, any comments posted to this blog will disappear when we transition to the new site. When the new site goes live, the web address www.christianchronicle.org/blog will redirect automatically to the new site. On the new site, you will be able to view comments that were posted to this blog before Aug. 30, 2013, under the heading “Feedback” that will appear at the end of each post.
• Daily e-mail updates from this blog will end. We appreciate those of you who subscribe to the daily e-mail updates for this blog. We are investigating ways to generate automatic e-mails when we post news to our new website. We will continue to send out weekly e-mail updates to those of you who have subscribed to that feature. To sign up for this feature, go to christianchronicle.org and enter your e-mail address in the “Newsletter” box at right.
• Our new website requires you to sign in. Registration is quick and easy — and includes an option to sign in using your Facebook account.
We look forward to informing, inspiring and uniting members of Churches of Christ with new, digital tools.
