SLU web gets complete overhaul

Published: 27 May 2016

On 1 June, the SLU websites will get a complete new look, and new functionality. These changes bring with them a number of improvements.

One of the biggest improvements is the responsive design, which means that the content appearance changes and is adjusted depending on screen size. This means that the number of columns and pictures are automatically adjusted, and that the pictures are primarily rescaled to fit the screen width. SLU’s websites have over half a million visitors every month, and 135,000 of them use tablets or mobile phones to access the sites. SLU’s web is now adjusted to the new ways of using the internet.

Completely new structure

Users will experience a whole new website structure. SLU’s objective has always been to make it easier for users to find what they are looking for. Mega menus are used for easier navigation, there are several headings on the horizontal menu bar and you can open mega menus with one click and get a quick overview of the contents. In that way, you can get to the right page without having to go through one or several intermediate pages.

The new websites are easier to survey and structured with clear headings and an easier-to-read typeface.

Published 1 June

The new websites will be published 1 June. Unfortunately, not everything will be in place at that time. Changing the web involves an immense amount of work and our staff is working hard to make sure everything is in order. We at SLU hope that you will find what you are looking for, but you can of course contact us for help.
