• SitePublish DEV refresh Thursday, August 1

  Jul 26, 2024 10:00 am

  All SitePublish development environments (DEV) are scheduled to be refreshed on Thursday, August 1, 2024.

  All content in DEV will be recreated from a copy of all production environments. Refreshes from production will overwrite content in DEV; users need to move any content they wish to keep from DEV prior to the refresh.

  • DEV is refreshed the first Thursday of March and August; 
  • TEST is refreshed the first Thursday of May and October.

• Upgrade and File Administration

  Jun 8, 2024 5:15 pm

  SitePublish production has been updated.

  One important change with the new version to enhance security: File Administration requires VPN access.

  File Administration is enabled again in the new version (Site Admin > File Administration), but it requires VPN access to work properly. Use File Administration to manage and link to files on the server.

  Please review your websites and contact Todd Nelson (trnelson@uillinois.edu) with any questions or issues.
