Bumblebee PLUS News

News on our website:

13/5/2026

We are continuing with the website edits.

  • The page's „At a glance“ summary has a new look
  • In the "I would like to start keeping bumblebees" section, you can see the new look of the introductory pages. These now mirror the menu, with an added basic description of each section. This is because, particularly the submenus, have not been displaying very nicely for some time (a problem with their narrow width in the template). We also had an issue this year when the template stopped working shortly after an update. This duplicated structure should hopefully help with better navigation on the pages.
  • The current AI translation was for a trial. From next week, we should switch to a different programme, by which time all website pages should have been translated. Any errors in the AI translations will be corrected on an ongoing basis.

Our website doesn't sleep, even though it might seem that way from a distance. More is happening on Čmeláci PLUS Facebook, where our advice clinic for beginner breeders is already running and where we share lots of interesting information. We are continuously updating our pages with news and experiences from last season.
We're newly adding a section to the website called „In a nutshell, where we summarise the important information that the reader will find in the text. 

We're also adding an English abstract as we have fans beyond our borders and will eventually open a separate website for them too.
