Getting Started – Writing for Chapman’s new Website
October 17, 2011
Hello Web Authors,
Thanks so much for your participation in last week’s training. You will find a digital copy of that presentation in “MyWindow.” If you have not requested permission yet, please do so and if you have any trouble with the process feel free to let me know. A link to the “MyWindow” site was emailed to those of you who were invited to the training.
So now that you have an understanding for how to write for the new website, you may have logistic questions.
What do I do first?
- First, navigate to the content tracker. Once you are in “MyWindow” it will be under the ‘links’ section on the right.
- Open that document. **Do not tamper with areas other than yours**
- Find your area within the google document.
- Decide on a page to write.
- Open the Word Document Template (in the shared documents area of the MyWindow site)
- Write the content for the page you selected.
- Log into MyWindow and upload the Word document (as well as any pictures / PDF files) into the corresponding folder. If the folder does not exist yet, create it.
- Rise and repeat.
Who can answer my questions?
An excel document that contains the members of the Web Core Team, and the Web Advisory Committee is listed in MyWindow. Find the Web Advisory Committee member who most closely represents your department. If they can not answer your question, contact the Web Core Team member who most closely represents your department.
Again, thanks for all of your hard work, and best wishes.
