Video for Blogging: Integration
Please consider integration with a video hosting/streaming service (i.e. https://bunny.net/solutions/video-delivery/ ) for main account admin. Use-case: I would need contributors to add video to their articles, but I need to manage those videos. A workflow would be this: writers send in an article, and upload a video directly on Typeflo via the integration. This way, they do not need to deal with embed codes, etc.. I am not sure how would this work best, or if I explained it well enough.. The final result would be an article with a video and text, and the thumbnail would be from the video or a custom image. Why not ask users to embed? Because I want to minimize technical friction for invited writers as much as possible. Thank you!

Sub-menu
Right now we can only create menu items on 1 level. Would be great if we can create sub-menu.

Custom Script at the End of Blog Posts
Enable the addition of custom scripts at the end of blog posts, same with the existing options to create CTAs on a global or per-category level. This functionality will allow bloggers to embed personalized calls-to-action (CTAs), customer satisfaction surveys (CSATs), or other interactive elements tailored to their specific content and audience, thus enhancing engagement and feedback collection.

Markdown Support
Markdown is pretty much supported by a lot of writing apps, so could we also have this here?

Password protected typeflo pages (Internal Vs External Facing)
Password protection for certain pages and blogs. SMBs often rely on internal Google Docs for things like call scripts, procedures, and other documents. These docs should only be seen by the company's own team. Many businesses have various Google Docs in their Drive that can be managed using Google Workspace settings or permissions. Just like Google Docs, it's crucial to have password protection in place. This way, access can be controlled at both the website and page levels to keep internal and external info separate.

FEATURED Section
I am not sure if anyone will see the benefit in this, but I will explain my use-case: when we have a multi-authored publication, and a wide range of readers, it would be great to be able to have Featured Authors on the blog pages. So, for example where we have now Featured articles, it would be great to have also featured authors. When visitors click on a featured author, they see the Author page, which contains that author's articles. I hope this made sense. Thank you.

Add Author bubble to post cards
When a blog page displays all articles, it would be great to see the authors in a small bubble somehow. This can/should be optional so that folks can choose if they want to show or not the authors.

Multiple Authors
Please enable us to tag more than a single Author. In many cases, especially collaborative mediums, there are more than one authors contributing to content creation. Thank you!

Blog nesting
The ability to create sub categories for the blog and to nest articles of the same subject together for easier navigation and discovery.

Please Vote: Audio Feature necessary (2 requests)
I have managed to embed an audio file of my article within Google Doc and have it successfully parse into Typeflo. This required jumping through hoops that no user will go through if they are not tech nerds. I would like to request 2 things: Find a way to embed an audio file in a simpler way.Integrate Typeflo with NotebookLM which can be used to pull a Google doc article, turn it into a podcast and share it. The Goal: achieve what nowadays all blogs do; have an audio file at the top of articles, so people can choose to listed or read the article. Please see the end result as I would like to see, but without the need to do so much technical "lifting": https://press.kineoasis.com/posts/moving-between-heaven-and-earth Thank you. PS: this is currently possible but with TOO MUCH work to make it practical.

Add 🌎︎/🔗 to Author Social
Authors who prefer to share the link to their website should have the option to choose so. Otherwise, they need to enter their URL as twitter/Pinterest/etc and the icon is misleading. A general link would allow them to easily point to a store, etc. Also, please enable more than one. A small thing, but many will care. Thank you!

Enhanced Author Pages
I would like to be be able to customize the authors' pages. Currently when I enter text I cannot create paragraphs (it all sits in a block no matter how many spaces I add in there). I would like to be able to have additional Text Editing capabilities in there (i.e. list, etc).

directory website template
I would like to create a directory website that features category filters prominently and includes a filter that automatically and in real time selects only certain blog posts.

Typeflo PAGES, MENU, and more :)
I believe that Pages should have the functionality to pull articles based on Categories. This way we can choose to display specific content for each page, effectively creating the equivalent of "desks" such as "Sports", "Lifestyle", etc. (based on existing content of course). Right now this can only be achieved by creating additional blogs and linking to them via menu..I would like to be able to increase the Menu links from 5 to 10. In mobile it is collapsed anyway, and on desktop it could also be present as a hamburger once we go beyond 5 links.

Extend Webhook options
I am curious if webhooks can be enhanced? I can see the use case where a new articles is published and a Webhook is sent out with additional info - i.e. title of article, etc.. This could potentially be used in conjunction with a current newsletter like Mailchimp, etc. Not exactly sure if it is a possibility, but I am trying to figure out a way to send out the Typeflo articles without having to duplicate them inside a newsletter platform (until Typeflo gets that capability to send newsletters). Thanks!
