ME has developed a standard template for ME course pages. Using the template means that ME's Web & Communications Team will maintain the core template structure of the site, troubleshoot problems as they come up, as well as help update your site with content that you provide.
To create a new course page, take over an existing page that is already using the template, or to start transitioning your current course page to the template, contact the Electronics Shop (mecl@purdue.edu) and someone will meet with you to go over the available options and get you on the list of projects. New projects will be started roughly in the order that the request was made. The department has established a limit of 3 large migration projects at a time to help maintain the sanity of the staff. Smaller projects or large updates will have a 2-4 week timeline established for completion, depending on what other projects are in the queue. Small updates should be completed in 1-2 business days. Which category an update or project falls in will be determined by the staff.
If you don't want to wait on us to convert your page, we can also set up the template for you & let you do the bulk of your own migration work. We will still be happy to help answer questions & do some of the trickier parts, but this may be an option to avoid the "large project" queue.
You are still able to run your own course site that doesn't use our template or process. However, support for self-managed sites will be limited to general guidance - we will not update content or directly fix anything on self-managed sites.If you're looking for information about how to work with the course page template, the documentation is available here.
