by Justin Fansler

On July 10, 2019, the Office of Communications team met with website editors and owners to review the T4 launch schedule and answer questions about the internal review process. This article contains highlights reviewed during the meeting.

Content Freeze

  • Monday, July 15 at 6am: editing content through Tridion will be unavailable.
  • T3 website editing will be back online Tuesday morning; however we strongly recommend not editing content unless it is an emergency. Email YSMeditor@yale.edu for edits in the event of an emergency on Monday; otherwise we’ll send the URL out in Wednesday's (July 17) communication.
  • It will take approximately two days to publish all content into T4. We will send an email to all active website editors when the new T4 sites are ready. A list of website links are available at https://medicine.yale.edu/communications/technology/t4/preview.aspx.

Bug Fixes and Releases

  • If you encounter a bug, please email YSM.Editor@yale.edu with a detailed report, including your browser, the page with the error, and a detailed description of the issue. You can also use the popup at the top of each page in the T4 websites to submit a bug report.
  • Check our website at https://medicine.yale.edu/communications/technology/t4/issues.aspx for a list of known bug and issues.
  • Each Thursday morning by 7am, the development team will release updates and fixes to the T4 websites. The team will provide an update of all issues included in the release.

Editing Workshops

The Office of Communications team will host a series of In-House Workshops between July 18 and launch on August 14 to help website editors make updates to their T4 websites. Please check our events calendar for updates and use the RSVP link to reserve your spot.
