Websites

If you want to set up your own site on the Informatics servers, or edit an existing site, there are several alternative systems.

Personal home pages

Staff and students can publish personal pages on the http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk server.

University web publishing service

Major University websites, including the Informatics front pages, are managed using Polopoly. Access is restricted to specific trained staff: in the case of Informatics, contact webadmin@inf.ed.ac.uk to find out more.

Informatics web server

Most web pages for individual courses and some research groups are stored here. Authorisation and content is managed through CVS for remote access and version control. Staff can apply online for a publishing account.

Informatics Content Management System

Web pages for the ITO (including this one) and some Institute web sites are help in a Zope/Plone content management system. Informatics staff and students can request access to edit existing sites or to create a new site
