Procedure: Content Management

You have a website. Now, it just needs updating. How do you do it? Who do you call for help?

I've never edited a website before. What do I do first?

In order to edit a website, you must have access to a content management system, which is a computer application used to create, edit, manage, search and publish various kinds of digital media and electronic text. This can be either a software program installed on your computer or a web-based program that you log into from your website.

If your website does not yet follow the "new look" of Loyola, your department, college, center or institute is using either the Contribute or Dreamweaver programs to edit your website.

  • Check to see if either program is already installed on your computer.
  • Fill out a Web Request Form to be trained on the program. Be sure to tell us the date and time when you are available to be trained and whether you need Contribute or Dreamweaver installed on your computer or if it's already there.

If your website has already been re-designed, your department, college, center or institute is using Drupal to edit your website.

  • Fill out a Web Request Form to be trained on the program. Be sure to tell us the date and time when you are available to be trained.

How do I create a new page?

I'd like to add a link to a webpage ...

How do I upload an image?

Once I've been trained, what if I forget how to do something or have questions?

Never fear. We are here to help. Fill out a Web Request Form with your question or problem and a member of the web team will contact you with a reply or schedule an appointment to do a refresher training with you.
