As you may have already noticed, a new site design was launched tonight! While the redesign remains a work in progress, the primary achievement of the new design is that it’s mobile friendly. This allows for better readability across multiple device sizes.

In order to accomplish this, on mobile devices and tablets you’ll notice some elements of the site seem to be missing. Specifically, the Community Calendar, Recent Classifieds and Recent Comments widgets are no longer at the right but are instead visible below the main postings. Alternatively, the Community Calendar and Classifieds can be accessed from the toolbar. We’re still working on making Recent comments available in a similar way.

While tonight was the launch of the new design, we have more features and functionality planned for the coming weeks and months. Stay tuned as Local Jewish News improves and evolves to continue serving your needs as the first and main place to stay connected with the Cleveland Orthodox Jewish community.

Please let us know what you like, what can be improved, and any other feedback you have on the redesign, the emails, and LJN’s functionality. Email info@localjewishnews.com or submit a comment on this posting.

Happy Chanukah!
