Training and documentation

Basic Loop

Our basic training course is intended for all LMU members who wish to edit LMU websites in the FirstSpirit WCMS. It takes place online and asynchronously via the Moodle learning management system—so you can decide for yourself how quickly you’d like to complete the training.

In the basic training course, you will learn about the structure and organization of LMU’s websites through theoretical sessions and find out which contacts and resources are available to you. Through hands-on exercises, you will gain a basic understanding of the core features available on most LMU websites:

• Edit Pages
• Using Navigation Elements and Multilingual Support
• Include content such as people, news, events, images, and downloads.

You can join at any time. Please register using our registration form. Once you've registered, you'll receive access to the Moodle course and all relevant information about the training.

Some web projects have specific features and settings that are not covered in this basic training (e.g., lmu.de). In such cases, please also contact the on-site representative responsible for your website.

The Faculty of Law currently offers regular, customized training sessions for its editors.

Documentation

WCMS Wiki

We recommend using our WCMS Wiki as a reference guide for editorial work in FirstSpirit. It contains comprehensive descriptions and instructions for all settings and modules developed specifically for LMU.

The WCMS Wiki is hosted on BayernCollab, the Confluence system of the LRZ. To access BayernCollab you must first activate your LMU user account.

Manufacturer documentation

The provider Crownpeak also offers a comprehensive knowledge base.However, it does not cover LMU-specific modules and settings.
