In Spring 2023, Enterprise Technology & Services (ET&S) added new personal campus website options across the Â鶹ÊÓƵÏÂÔØ (Â鶹ÊÓƵÏÂÔØ). The new options will replace similar services at the University of New Hampshire (UNH) and Keene State College (KSC). UNH’s myPages, built on Drupal 7 and will be end-of-life in January 2025, will be retired this fall. KSC’s Domain of One’s Own will be migrated into the new Â鶹ÊÓƵÏÂÔØ Domains and personal websites at Plymouth State University (PSU) will be rolled into the new system in a phased approach over the next few years. Overall, this project results in hosting and maintenance cost savings for Â鶹ÊÓƵÏÂÔØ.
Personal Â鶹ÊÓƵÏÂÔØ websites can be used for content that does not fit into the main campus marketing sites (such as research labs or personal faculty sites) and are accessible to Â鶹ÊÓƵÏÂÔØ students and employees. The new simple site options allow users without extensive technical experience to build a website quickly.
Here are the following website options, along with features and descriptions for each:
-
- WordPress site in a shared multi-site hosting environment.
- Customizable themes available for each campus: KSC-branded, PSU-branded, UNH-branded, or Â鶹ÊÓƵÏÂÔØ-branded.
