Cascade CMS

Getting Started

Official University Web pages are stored on www.brandeis.edu and edited via the Cascade Server Web Contact Management System (Cascade CMS).

To create a departmental or program related site, please contact the Office of Communications.

Resources

  1. Web Editors Tool Kit
  2. Training

Site Statistics

  1. How do I get statistics for my site?
    • Send an email to web@brandeis.edu, indicating your site and we will set it up for you!
  2. What does the stats report mean?
    • You can learn more about interpreting these reports at the Stats info page.

Password Protection

Any site that contains potentially sensitive or private information (e.g. student/employee records, financial data) must use CoSign authentication.

To set up a secure site, please contact LTS at web@brandeis.edu

Please also consider requesting a private shared server space (department head only).  This is more secure than a password-protected Web site as it is available only on campus or though wormhole.brandeis.edu

Forms and Surveys

You can create forms in the CMS to:

  1. Send mail based upon form input
  2. Store submissions in a database
  3. Display results as a Web page or in an Excel-readable file
  4. Embed a form on any page
