What can and can't I edit on my uConnect platform?

In general, most content on Community pages can be edited by admin users! On Communities, from under the Manage>Communities section of your dashboard, you'll be able to add a description into a Community page, in addition to a header image.

A good way to remember what you can and cannot edit is that we typically help setting up and editing the structure, or the "skeleton," or your platform and its pages (such as menus, widgets, buttons, branding colors, etc.), versus you have control of filling your platform with content, or the "meat" of your platform, such as publishing blogs, jobs, events, resources, etc.

Using your Publish tab in the backend, you'll also be able to tag new content, such as blogs, jobs, events, etc. onto any given Community of your choice to have it display on the front end where you've identified.

The items most commonly requested that a member of the uConnect team will just need to assist you in editing are menu and widget changes, along with branding and technical configurations.

Site Branding:

You need to reach out to us by submitting a new support request to update your platform's branding colors, logos, site title/heading. Typically, anything in the header or footer area (including your Privacy Policy and Terms of Service Links and social media logos) of your platform is something only we can edit:

Header area example:

Footer area example:

Technical Updates: URL (DNS), SSO, and SIS:

For these technical configurations, you need to reach out to us to update these, for example, if you want to update your URL or enable SSO, by submitting a new support request.

Menu Changes:

There's a universal main navigation that appears at the top of every platform directly below the header space, like in the screenshot below.

If you'd like to add or remove a menu item, update a menu's link, or change any language in the menu, a member of the uConnect team will just need to update that for you! You can receive help for this by submitting a new support request, and a team member would be happy to help!

Another type of menu, the hero navigation, which appears below the banner space on your homepage (shown below) will also just need to be updated by a member of the uConnect team. This includes any button color changes, removals/additions, text size updates, order of buttons, and language changes. Feel free to submit a support request for this, and we can take care of that for you!

Community navigations, or menus that appear below the banner image in Communities (see the image below) will also be edited by the uConnect team. If you ever need to change the language here, add/remove a menu item, update the color of buttons, or change the order of buttons, feel free to submit a support request.

Widget Changes:

Lastly, a widget change, or a change to a section that works to dynamically feed in a specific content type, needs to be made by the uConnect team.

For example, in the below screenshot you'll see a Community page with three widgets or sections: one for videos, another for employers, and the last for experiences. If you ever want to edit the order the sections appear in, update the title of the sections (i.e. change 'featured videos' to 'videos'), or add/remove a new section of content, a uConnect support member can make any changes for you. As always, feel free to submit a support request.
