Cal Poly's Content Management System

Site Requests

Drupal Request Form

Use this form if you would like to request a brand new site, or if you would like to join the growing list of Drupal users at Cal Poly and migrate your existing site into our system.

If you would like more information on the process behind provisioning and migrating sites, please refer to our Drupal Site Process page.

To see if your unit/program qualifies for a Drupal site, read Who Gets Drupal Sites?.

 

Site Administrator Information

The site admin is the person who will be in charge of the site, and is responsible for adding other users to the site.

Request Type and Purpose

"New Site" is the simplest site request, and means you're creating a brand new site!

"Migration" means you're planning to move the entirety of an existing site out of its current host and into Drupal.

"Breakout" means you're planning to move a portion of the content on an existing site into its own discrete site.

IRAs are defined by Academic Programs and Planning. The Drupal team will likely contact you to discuss IRA site requests, as they are handled on a case-by-case basis.

Clubs are not provided sites on our Drupal systems! Read more on our page about who gets Drupal sites.

Security

Please be aware! Drupal sites can ONLY collect Level 1 data on SecureForms sites. Please review the Information Security Site for details on data classification.

By clicking "Confirm", you agree you have reviewed and understand what constitutes Level 1 Data, and that this site will NOT be collecting any Level 1 Data.

Site Name

The format of your site URL will depend on whether or not you need to collect any Level 1 Data.

Great! Since you don't need to collect any Level 1 Data, you'll be requesting a site on our "Enterprise" environment. The URL format for Enterprise sites is:

sitename.calpoly.edu

.calpoly.edu

Since you need to collect Level 1 Data, you'll be requesting a site on our "SecureForms" environment. These sites are intended to only host the webforms that need to collect Level 1 Data, and should be used in tandem with a main/primary site that hosts your other content.

Your primary site should link users to a webform on the SecureForms when needed, and they should be linked back to the main site when the webform has been completed.

The URL format for a SecureForms site is:

secureforms.calpoly.edu/user

secureforms.calpoly.edu/
