Accessibility Disclosures for Attached Document Files
Some document files attached to Georgia Tech website pages may be in a format that requires an additional browser extension or a special application on your computer or device to be able to open them. The following disclosures describe how to utilize the most commonly found types of files in use at Georgia Tech:
Adobe PDF
Some more-recent web browsers have the ability to download and view PDFs. If your browser does not have this support, you will need a PDF reader on your computer or device such as Adobe Acrobat Reader.
Website Redesign: Maintenance
PHASE 4: DEPLOY
Moving forward, the website should be maintained on a regular basis. This should include Drupal updates, security updates, content maintenance, and basic page styling.
Website Redesign: Testing
PHASE 4: DEPLOY
The testing phase is for all participants to test the website and fix any errors before making it live to the public.
Develop a test plan.
The test plan should include:
Website Redesign: Scope
PHASE 1: PLAN
During the scope phase, you will identify the technical and functionality requirements for the new website. If you need to outsource any work, the information that you have gathered in the initiation, discovery, and scope phases will be critical for the external vendor.
Website Redesign: Discovery
PHASE 1: PLAN
Once the project has been formally started, the discovery phase begins. This phase is meant to reveal the state of your website today and your competitive landscape. All team members should participate in this phase of the project.
Website Redesign: Initiation
PHASE 1: PLAN
The project sponsors and other important stakeholders will decide whether to commit to the web project and define it at a broad level.

Introduction
Planning a website redesign is daunting, and the process is long and tedious — especially if you don't do it on a regular basis.
Have no fear: This guide aims to help make your job easier by providing an overview of the common phases and resources involved in a website redesign project so that you can set expectations and properly staff your internal and/or external teams.
PWP Custom Domains & absolute URLs
When adding a new subdomain to a PWP website, please be mindful of existing absolute URLs that may be pointing to the old domain, as the old domain will not function once the PWP website has been updated.
This functionality was added as part of the Spring 2019 spring cleaning initiative.
Connecting to GitHub Enterprise (command-line)
Connecting to GitHub Enterprise at Georgia Tech, unlike Github.com, requires a few additional steps because GitHub Enterprise is not publicly accessible.
Please note that it is much easier to connect to GitHub Enterprise via GitHub Desktop, which natively supports enterprise installs like GitHub Enterprise at Georgia Tech.
