How do I request “go-live” for a Web-One website?

Step 1: Review your site in wwwtest.csun.edu to check for any issues.

Step 2: Web-One liaisons should contact the IT Help Center (via email or online)and provide the following information:

  • Name and contact information for group administrator who oversees the site.
  • URL path (e.g., /it) of site that will “go-live” on Web-One.
  • URL path exceptions for pages that temporarily will remain on the legacy web system (e.g., /itr/downloads/index.cgi) because complex changes must be made before it can be moved to Web-One.
  • Requests should be made at least the Friday before “go-live” is desired. 

Step 3: The new site will “go-live” in Web-One the Friday after it is requested, typically between 9:00am-10:00am.  IT will coordinate directly with the group administrator regarding the cutover.  The group administrator should be available during and after site cutover to check the site and to help resolve any linking issues that may arise on the site.

Refer to the Site Migration Guide and the Group Administrator Guide for detailed information regarding link aliases if not all the pages on your site go-live at once.

How do I request a new Web-One website?

Step 1: Contact your Web-One liaison to request a Web-One site for your college, division or department.

Step 2: Web-One liaisons should then contact the IT Help Center (email or online)and provide the following information:

  • Group administrator name, user ID and email address
  • Name of department
  • List of all department numbers that fall within this group (for the people list)
  • Site URL (refer to the Web-One Guidelines)

Step 3: IT will create the Web-One site and inform the group administrator when it is ready.

  • IT will create the requested Web-One site and group administrator account within 3 business days.  The group administrator will be notified via email of their access and the login URL.
  • IT will also create a wwwtest.csun.edu/group site that will route to the group Web-One site.  This will enable the group to preview and test their site before “go-live” without having to login to Web-One.  This URL is only for previewing the site.  To add and change content within Web-One group site, content owners must be logged into Web-One. 
  • IT will also update the people load table so that the people list within a department will be updated automatically on a daily basis.  Groups can edit this information within Web-One (add a related web page, etc.), and the information edited in Web-One will not be overwritten.

Refer to the Site Migration Guide regarding things to consider when planning a site in Web-One.
