User profiles and avatars just arrived!
It's not a bad thing if your website is actually used by people. And now on DotNest you have the tools to improve your user's experience and make them feel home with custom profiles and avatars! For this we just added two modules, available on all DotNest sites: Profile: this is the module that allows your users to have their own profiles. By editing the User content type you can add fields like "bio" which are then editable by everyone for themselves. Avatars: the Avatars module builds on the Profile module and lets your users upload avatars (profile pictures). These can then be displayed under their contributions. E.g. blog posts' author profiles will be linked from posts, where their avatar will be also displayed. With these we now have you better covered, so create your social DotNest site for free!

New content fields, social meta tags and a Bootstrap theme
We constantly strive to make DotNest even better for you. So if you give us some feedback, we'll gladly listen. This time we listened to three enthusiastic DotNest users and thus added three new extensions to the DotNest selection! Lombiq Fields module: adds some useful content fields, including Media Library Upload Field so Media items can be uploaded attached to content items and the Money Field to store money amounts. You can also see the module in action in the Orchard Communtiy Meeting's podcast. Social Meta Tags module: adds meta tags for various social networks (Open Graph Tags for Facebook/Google/Pinterest/LinkedIn and Twitter Card Tags) and Google Authorship tags. PJS.Bootstrap theme: a great theme by Philip Senechal. Create your DotNest site for free and try out these new features!
