PDF - Feature for Composer

We'd like to have a native way to embed PDF documents into article bodies. We can do this through sources such as documentcloud.org but that becomes messy with code pasting and unpredictable results at times. A way to upload, store, and display PD...

Enable anchor tags in Ellipsis

As a reporter/editor/producer, I want to be able to add anchor tags in my story so that readers can jump from a top directory straight into the section of a story, guide, or longform that they are most interested in. Currently, we can do this only...

PageBuilder needs lots of permission settings

I like PageBuilder, but I don't want to let anybody touch it. It is way too easy for well-meaning people to break things, and it's even easier for ill-meaning people to ruin things that ought not be ruined. The all-or-nothing approach that we have...

Ability to add custom icons for custom embeds

I thought this Idea already existed, so apologies if it's a duplicate, but I couldn't find it. We love having the ability to add custom embeds (Power-Ups) to Composer and have added several embeds for our internal tools. A shortcoming, though, is ...

Ability to insert single line breaks in Composer

Within Composer, we would like the ability to insert single line breaks rather than paragraph breaks - ideally via CLT+Shift+Enter or Shift +Enter etc. This would help us out with things like listicles where we don't want sub headers etc to be sep...

Authors set to inactive should not appear in the Ellipsis author dropdown

We have authors that are deceased or no longer working in the company that we do not want to appear in the drop down list. We still want them in the system since old stories need to be associated with them, but inactive would only affect the Ell...

We need true revision history

just a long list on the side with the names of everyone who ever opened the file is not useful. We need to see the changes that were made in each version - true versions, not when someone just opens the file. This is not only useful to pin down wh...

Enable Bluesky as an option for the social media embed tool

With more users moving to Bluesky for social posting, it would be helpful to have this as an option in the social media tool, so journalists could just copy the URL of a post and paste it into Composer to embed in a story.
