What are Content Types?

Content types are, as the name states, different types of content that you can use to add information to your website. It's a good way to keep things within your website looking organized with minimal effort.

  • Article — Allows you to post Departmental News
  • Basic Page — Allows you to post mostly static information that changes infrequently (ie NOT news, events, directory listings, etc)
  • Courses — Allows you to provide basic information about courses
  • Event — Allows you to post upcoming departmental events based on dates
  • Lab — Allows you to post information about Research Labs in your department.
  • Personnel — Allows you to provide contact information, biography, CV, research, publications, etc for a Faculty & Staff directory
  • Research Area — Allows you to list the different types of research being done in the department.
  • Slide — Allows you to load large dynamic images as "sliders" in your homepage
