As part of the website redesign, we’ve been looking behind the scenes of the current JIBC site and peeling the web onion that is www.jibc.ca. We’ve found quite a few pages and even entire websites that are under our domain but aren’t part of the main website’s navigation. These include Community of Practice/Community of Learners pages, e-blast pages, sites for clients, and miscellaneous pages and sites.
We want to be clear that if there are divisional pages or sites that have not been documented in your area’s content discussions with Web Editor Krista Lambert, they won’t be online after the new website launches unless special arrangements are made. This includes hidden pages and other websites located under www.jibc.ca. The new website will be on a new server, configured for Drupal, and these non-core pages and sites can’t be moved to that server.
If you have pages or websites that need to exist post-launch of the new website, action is required from your division. First, identify them in an email to Chris Wong or Lori Munro by December 10, 2010. From there, we’ll work with you to figure out the best solution. This could be migration to host.jibc.ca/nameofyourchoice, a campaign landing page on the new site, or deletion. It’s all fairly straightforward, but absolutely can’t be left until the last minute! Thanks for your cooperation.
