The staging (temporary testing) server is temp.colum.edu. Assets are pushed from the CMS to the staging server every 20-40 minutes. Assets are then pushed from the staging server to the live server every 20-40 minutes.
There is also a Collage guest login for sites that have not been "approved" yet -- please contact the CMS administrator for username and password details.
Logout when you are finished so that the license you are using is freed for other users. We have a limited number of "seats" for Collage, and your seat will be occupied until you log out.
There is a link in the upper-right-hand corner of the Collage screen called "Logout" that will do the trick!
Don't forget to approve your changes - that goes for new pages, edited pages, new graphics, and changes to site structures.
Site structures can seem hidden; you'll have to switch to "Deploy" view, then navigate to Website -> Site Files -> site structures, and then approve the changes to your site.
Use alphanumeric characters when naming a page. Avoid punctuation like commas, apostrophes, etc. Punctuation or foreign characters like "?" or "&" will cause the CMS to malfunction.
Bad stuff includes characters like æ * # & @, etc.
This page contains an archive of all entries posted to Collage Tips and Tricks in the General Tips category. They are listed from oldest to newest.
