Mostly infrastructure updates this sprint, but a couple user-facing highlights:
- Curators can now add links to the Description field of exhibit items using Markdown. Details and screenshots added to the Curator documentation: Curation: Items.
- Newly published exhibits will now be sorted by default to the top of the home page index.
- Exhibits can still be reordered by superadmins (send a request to help-exhibits-library@cornell.edu) in a backend dashboard if any overrides are needed.

User-facing highlights:
- Bug fix: Users can change their account password by clicking on "Change Password" or logging in and going directly to: https://exhibits.library.cornell.edu/users/edit.
- Improvement/bug fix: Curators can now upload images to exhibit items that previously did not have any images attached.
- Improvement: Example custom theme made available to all exhibits. See: Custom Visual Theme for screenshots and descriptions of what this example custom theme provides. This custom theme is meant to serve as an example for curators of what custom themes can give an exhibit, not as an actual theme that an exhibit admin would want to apply to their exhibit.
Improvement: Add border to Text box in page widgets to make Text box more obvious:
Before: After:
