Meet the new Peppered CMS: what we've built and where we're going

The new CMS has been a long time in the making. Several modules are already live in their updated form – and if you've spent time in there, you'll know it feels different. In this session, we'll explain the thinking behind it.

This isn't a feature showcase. It's a chance to understand why certain decisions were made, what the improvements mean for your day-to-day workflows, and where your feedback has already shaped what's coming next.

Whether you're using the new CMS regularly, occasionally, or not at all yet, this session will give you the context and confidence to make the most of it.

What you'll learn

  • Why the CMS update was driven by technical necessity, and why that's a good thing for you
  • What's changed in Phase 1: layout, parameters, duplicate pages and improved workflows
  • How to get the most out of the features already available to you
  • What's coming in Phase 2, including features you've been asking for
  • How to share your feedback on the Dashboard homepage, which we're designing together

Your speakers

George Hill, Chief Experience Officer, CultureSuite

Ivo will bring the technical context and practical tips to the session, covering what's already live, what's in development, and how to make the most of the new interface as it continues to evolve.

“What I like about CultureSuite is the approach—the learnings they get from lots and lots of cultural organisations, bringing that into a central platform so they can make the changes that we all benefit from, rather than everything being customised and bespoke.”

Paul Callaghan
Chair of Sunderland Music, Arts and Culture Trust
