CMS upgrade and Webcontent downtime

In order to upgrade to Ingeniux Version 6.0, webcontent\buildsite will be unavailable from 5 pm on June 1 through 7:30 am on June 3. Please close out the CMS client prior to 5 pm. Please submit any pages that need updating prior to 3pm. Any changes made after 5 pm will be lost.

Version 6.0 will use a 'universal client' that works on either the PC or Mac, but does require use with specific browsers for optimal performance.

For Mac users: Safari 3
For PC users: Internet Explorer 7

Please note: the old 5.2 client and the new 6.0 client are not compatible; therefore, the 5.2 client will have to be removed from your computer BEFORE you install the new 6.0 client. Instructions to uninstall the old client and install the new client will be provided after the upgrade.

The first time you go to webcontent\buildsite (after the upgrade and removal of 5.2 client), you will be prompted to install the new client software. You will notice the new CMS client has more of a browser look to it.

Additional Features:
• New asset management feature that allows for easier browsing, management and selection of images and documents on the server
• "Get Help" - an optional step in the workflow to request help from College Communications on all types of content without leaving the client
• New WYSIWYG Editor

After the upgrade, Info sessions will be held on Wednesday (June 3) and Thursday (June 4). Specific locations and times to be announced.


If you have any questions, please contact Paige Herman.
