My Councillor sites are free websites available to ALDC members.
Whether a councillor or a candidate, an individual or a ward team, they provide a great online presence (they show very high in search engines). They are a great place to add extra detail and link to form leaflets and social media. They are very easy to edit and there are over 1000 Lib Dem My Councillors sites live at present.
We are launching a brand new website design, which we calling the ‘flow’ design. This is a sleek, stylish and modern layout. You can take a look at the new design here:
Requesting a My Councillor site
To request a my councillor site please follow the link on this page. ALDC will then build the outline of your site for you, create your editing account and give you full access to populate it with local content.
Changing to the New ‘Flow’ theme
All new My Councillor sites will be designed in the brand new flow theme. However there are two other themes available – the ‘picture’ and ‘traditional blog’ themes. You can toggle between these using the customize menu on your my councillor toolbar when logged into your site.
If you have an existing My Councillor site and wish to change it to the ‘Flow’ theme you will need to select it on your customize menu. There are some additional steps that are needed to configure your new theme. These are described in the article below:
