More Information

Do all WSU websites have to created using Site Manager?
No, all web sites at Weber State University do not have to be created using the Site Manager content management system (CMS) but it is strongly recommended that official "public facing" university sites use Site Manager. There are several options for web hosting using FTP. Applications associated with this type of web hosting and development include Dreamweaver and Expression Web.

What happens when WSU changes the main university website design?
When Weber State updates its main web site design, all sites created in the Site Manager CMS will be updated to that new theme automatically. This is part of the professional functionality of a content management system.
