New Story Card

The Story Card is now available and is the default from 21 October 2026. The old entry form will be available until approximately 25 November 2026. The new Story card offers many improvements for editorial planning as it was specifically developed to make complex stories easier to structure and to support collaboration across teams. 

What's new?

From Entry Form to Story Card

The previous detailed view was primarily designed as a form for entering data.
With the new Story Card, Kordiam introduces a modern workspace:

• Tasks and platforms in direct context
• Display of attachments and content
• Better visibility of connections between elements

The following video shows what the new Story Card looks like in practice and what has changed compared to the previous entry form.

Familiar Structure – A New Experience

The new Story Card keeps the familiar basic structure:

• What is this story about?
• What needs to be done?
• When and where will it be published?

However, the layout has been completely redesigned, allowing content to be captured and edited much more efficiently.

More Clarity for Complex Stories

Especially for extensive stories or stories planned across multiple platforms, the new Story Card offers key advantages:

• Space-efficient, modern design
• Improved readability and structure
• More information visible at once
• Easier planning across multiple platforms

Better Task and Platform Coordination

A major highlight is the improved transparency between tasks and platforms:

• Connection between platforms and tasks are also visible on the task level
• These connections can also be edited there
• Teams can more easily track responsibilities and publishing platforms

Drag-and-Drop and Content Preview

The new Story Card supports modern workflows:

• Content can be organized via drag-and-drop
• Previews enable faster work without switching context

The New Context Box

On the right-hand side of the Story Card, the new Context Box provides quick access to:

• Change history
• Map view
• Attached documents
• Uploaded content

This eliminates the need to switch between tabs and makes editorial workflows more efficient.

Parallel Usage of the old version: approximately until 25 November 2026

The new Story Card is parallely available to the old entry form. This gives teams the opportunity to gradually get familiar with the new view and provide feedback.

From 21 October the new Story Card becomes the default and users must actively switch back to the old entry form, if they still want to use it.

Old to new:

Switching between the old and the new version during the parallel phase (approximately until 25 November) is possible at any time without issues. Please note, however, that you should not switch views while there are unsaved changes in a story. Make sure to save your changes first before switching.
