Website Registration and Setup Requests

A process is in place to allow web developers to request a new site, register an existing site, or request a site be moved into Sitefinity, UTMB’s web content management system (Web CMS).

All the university’s web sites and the individuals that build and manage these resources are required to be registered in UTMB’s Site Inventory.

A web-based registration/site request process populates the information in the inventory. It also triggers other tasks in support of the developer and her/his program. The inventory creates a searchable list of UTMB web sites, associated contacts and developers, and technical details that support the creation and maintenance of UTMB's web infrastructure.

The entire process begins with an online web form. The options on the form change depending on your selections.

1. I am here to
   In this section you’ll select what you are interested in doing: set up a new site or request a training website to learn Sitefinity.
2. Site Details
   This section collects essential information including site name and URL, whether it’s internal or public, and the theme.
   
3. Site Management
   In this area, users define the department or area that "owns" a  UTMB website, and the people in those areas requesting and/or ultimately responsible for the site. A site owner may be a program director, departmental chair, area manager, VP, etc. She/he may or may not have any hands-on management of the pages in a site.
4. Content Editors
   The person(s) in charge of the day-to-day edits the site needs to stay fresh.
5. Comments or Special Instruction
   A “catch all” for any other information not already part of the standard form. Have a URL that needs to be redirected? A blog? Special content you are concerned about?  This is where you’ll mention it.
