2013 Annual Conference — October 6-9You want me to migrate our website?
Ballroom
I found out in 2012 that the University of Louisville was upgrading from Plone 3 to Plone 4 and it would be my sole responsibility to migrate the website for the Office of Admissions, as well as our Orientation and Transfer & Adult Services websites. Wait, you want me to do what?? I am the Digital Media Coordinator for UofL and although managing these websites and making updates is part of my job, I am not an HTML guru and definitely not an IT Tier 1. This session will focus on how to determine a strategy for a website migration, redesign or re-launch. I would like to include how to come up with a realistic timeline, cataloging a list of your current subpages, determining a strategy for the new homepage based on your audience and analytics, and how to survive when you are NOT an HTML genius. The latter portion will include using and in some cases learning how to use things such as Firebug and more. I will show a before and after of our Admissions website.
