Overview of optional Aeon News newsroom and audience tools.

Last updated 27 August 2026

Add-ons extend an Aeon News WordPress installation for specific editorial or audience needs. Enable a tool because it supports a defined workflow, not because every capability should appear in the editor.

Available add-ons

Aeon News Add-ons 1.11.3 provides polls, quizzes and video features. Popular Posts 1.0.20 highlights readership patterns. Proofreading 1.0.47 supports editorial review. Translate / Migrate 1.0.1 supports planned language or content moves. Comment Agent 0.1.4 supports comment workflows.

Introduce one workflow at a time

Name an editor responsible for each enabled add-on. Decide which story types may use it, what review is required, and how readers can report a problem. Train the team with real, low-risk examples before changing a large section of the site.

Keep optional tools optional

An add-on should not make a basic article harder to publish. Review its editorial value, accessibility and maintenance needs after launch. If a tool changes the reader experience, include it in routine front-page and mobile checks.
