About FirstSpirit

Learn more about LMU’s web content management system (WCMS), FirstSpirit.

Change content

FirstSpirit simplifies the creation of highly integrated pages and offers flexible navigation so that users can find their way around the site quickly and as intuitively as possible.
Content is organized by topic rather than by organizational unit.
This includes modern design, optimized display on mobile devices, and ensuring accessibility.
LMU’s internationalization is supported by a 1:1 language switch between German and English content.

The FirstSpirit WCMS is hosted in the cloud by Crownpeak, which handles the technical foundation of the content management system.
LMU’s infrastructure is managed by the central FirstSpirit Support team in Division VI.5 Internet Services, who continuously develop it to meet the needs of LMU editors.
FirstSpirit is organized into individual "web projects," which are technically administered in collaboration between Division VI.5 and the project administrators dof each LMU unit. For details, see Structure of FirstSpirit.
Project administrators and their editors receive central support from the FirstSpirit support team in their work with the system.

The conceptual design and editorial management of individual web presences are conducted by the editors of the respective units.
Coordination is handled by the site or project coordination, and when necessary, in consultation with the "Media Relations and Communications"
