Add New Members to WebAudit
I am attempting to add a new faculty member to a WebAudit site, however when I go through ‘Add a Member’ their info doesn’t show up or populate.
They either need to log into WebAudit because their user is not in the system yet, or they have a user in WebAudit and they have their user set to private which will make them not show up in that user search.
Can I use WebAudit on a site that's not in the UNL Framework?
Web Audit cannot, but the Web Accessibility Evaluator can.
UNL CMS Workshops
- Self-guided review of documentation and introductory training video required for attendance.
- Request sandbox site access at https://cms.unl.edu/sandbox-site-access-request/
- Monthly workshops on Zoom offered on the 2nd Thursday of each month @ 2 p.m. and are open to anyone who has a question about UNL CMS or just wants guidance on best practices for building pages.
- RSVP for a UNL CMS Workshop
WebAudit Metrics
- https://webaudit.unl.edu/groups/unl/
- Slightly revision in how scores are being reported this month.
- WATCH YOUR LINKS! With all sites live in the new system, some links may have changed. CMS sites have a built-in page (Reports → Top 'page not found' errors) that shows a list of URLs that users are visiting that result in Not Found being shown.
CMS updates
Will be live on sites February 11, 2026:
- Reusable Blocks
- Components created through the block tab can now be reusable across different pages.
- Vertical alignment of components
- Users can now vertically center align all components within a section. This setting is found under the advanced section configuration settings.
- Scheduler Module:
- Ability to schedule content to be published or unpublished at a future time. The process runs every 30 minutes, so please keep that in mind if you’re scheduling content to change within a shorter window.
- Google Tag (Google Analytics) will be excluded from loading for any user that has a role on the site
- Will prevent admin pages and non-relevant hits from being logged
- MathJax Module
- Enable MathJax support within CKEditor for rendering mathematical formulas.
