Our website is one of the strongest marketing tools we have. Therefore, it is important that we retain our brand identity throughout our online channels the same way we do for our more traditional channels. Our website is built using templates implemented by using the Content Management System (CMS), Drupal 8.
College Communications is responsible for managing all content on the College's website.
This includes the review of all content that is submitted to the office via the tracking system (webcontent@potsdam.edu), as well as content that is submitted by appointed department liaisons.
We reserve the right to edit or reject any content that is inconsistent with the mission of the College and our brand identity.
Request a Content Change
Email webcontent@potsdam.edu with the specifics for your changes. Please include all of the following information:
- Website URL of the page/document that needs to be changed
- Specific Content that needs to be changed
- If there is a document that needs to be added/updated, please attach it to your email
This option will generate a ticket in the tracking system. We generally complete these tickets in the order they were received; however, projects designed for the Division of Advancement, Admissions or College President will be given priority.
Department Liaisons
If you are an approved liaison who has received training, you can login to the Content Management System and make the necessary changes. Save as a draft and submit when complete. We will make our best attempt to approve all submissions in a timely manner, however submissions made after 3 p.m. are not guaranteed to be approved on the same day.
Training
We will make every effort to provide key people in your area with training as to how to maximize your use of the templates and online real estate that your department or area has. If your area does not currently edit your webpages directly for their campus department, please have an administrator or supervisor contact College Communications at (315) 267-2114 to set up training and access.
Department Chairs can also email webcontent@potsdam.edu to request user accounts for people who will help with your website. Please include the following information for the User you are requesting access for:
First Name
Last Name
Email Address
Site requesting access to (http://www.potsdam.edu...)
Please double-check the spelling of your users' names and email addresses. When we receive this request, the Web Content Manager will contact the new liaison to arrange a training prior to being given access.
Please note that in general, for licensing purposes, only one liaison is given access per department. In special circumstances, additional liaisons may be approved by the Office of College Communications.
