Faculty Profiles

All faculty pages are located at https://www.yu.edu/faculty Only faculty members or a web administrator can edit faculty pages and faculty members are restricted to their own pages.  For editing permissions or page creation, please email Vickey Edge at edge@yu.edu or yuinteractivemedia@gmail.com.

Instructions

Log into the CMS (Content Management System) by clicking on "Editor Login" at the bottom of any yu.edu page.  


Your username will be your first initial combined with your last name. Do not use your email address.  (Example vedge) 

In the same browser, navigate to your faculty page.  You will see a blue bar at the top.  Click on the "Edit" button.


Your faculty page is comprised of many sections.  These sections and their headers will only show up on your page if you add information to them.  For example, if you do no include books in the "Publications" section, that section will not be seen on your page.

When you have completed your edits,  click on the blue "Save" button at the bottom, and your changes will be live!


If you have any questions or concerns, or if you need assistance editing, please don't hesitate to reach out to Vickey Edge edge@yu.edu or yuinteractivemedia@gmail.com.  

Content Managers Playbook

A content manager (CM) oversees and makes all changes to the content and assets (e.g., videos, images, etc.) on his/her site. CMs are also responsible for reviewing their site regularly to ensure content and assets are constantly fresh and remain relevant to their users.

The head of a department or school assigns the content manager.

Your department head must email Vickey Edge edge@yu.edu and include the name of the person who will be the content manager of your department’s website.

You can only gain access to your site in the CMS after you’ve received CMS training with a member of the CPA staff. CPA will coordinate the training once it receives the email from your department head of the new CM. Once you’ve completed your training and permissions have been granted, you have access to the CMS 24/7, barring any unforeseen issues.

Your department head must email Vickey Edge edge@yu.edu with the name of the new content manager.

Email Vickey Edge edge@yu.edu and specify the exact name of the navigation that you want to rename and what its new nomenclature should be.

Complete the New Page Request Form. We strongly recommend that you bookmark this form.

Content managers only have access to their own site. If you see something on another YU site that you believe needs to be changed, email Vickey Edge edge@yu.edu and be sure to include the name of the site. CPA will then send you the name of that site's content manager, so you can discuss further with her/him (typically, CPA is not involved in such discussions).

CPA supports the University’s content management system (CMS) and will be happy to help you with any questions you have specifically about our CMS. For questions about all other applications, systems, programs, and platforms, Academic Computing or IT might be able to assist. In addition, there are many online tutorials, including on YouTube.

Yeshiva University follows the YU Style Guide (PDF).
