About Our Service
Medinfo ‘Sites’ is a web publishing service intended for the public communication needs of the UF College of Medicine (COM).
It allows individual units to create and maintain dynamic, professional websites on their own.
Each Site can be as advanced as a full blown departmental website, or as simple as a student group blog. There are several site templates to choose from and we are constantly working to expand our offering.
Features
All Sites include the following features
- Web-based management of your site’s content (no software to install on your computer)
- Blog-like article capabilities (RSS feeds, commenting, user profiles)
- Full media support (photo galleries, MP3s, movies)
- Search Engine Optimized page designs
- Multiple content authors
- …and more!
Who Can Use it?
Sites is available to all COM departments, centers, institutes, administrative units, research programs, and student groups. To set up your own site, contact Carlos Morales.
Individuals and groups who do not meet the criteria above must be approved on a case by case basis.
What Can It Be Used For?
Sites is intended for official business use that benefits the entire COM community. All content should be professional in nature, and related to the missions of the College. All users must comply with the UF Acceptable Use Policy. OMI reserves the right to shutdown non-compliant sites without prior notification.
Example Sites
Below are a few examples of COM ‘Sites’ utilizing our templates:
- Electronic Medical Records
- EMR uses the “Side Menu” template a long with domain mapping. Domain mapping allows their URL to be http://emr.med.ufl.edu instead of the default, http://emr.sites.medinfo.ufl.edu .
- Example Site
- Our example site uses the “Top Menu” template and is meant for sites with a limited number of major headings, but an unlimited amount of subheadings. This template is designed for traditional pages, and places less focus on articles or ‘posts’.
Blog Example Site #1 – default color scheme
- This is an example blog design. The owner of the site can customize their side menu by selecting which sections, or “widgets”, they wish to display. They can also change the color scheme.
- Blog Example Site #2 – ‘clouds’ color scheme
- This example blog site simply has the color scheme (Design / Theme Options) set to ‘clouds’, but is otherwise identical to the Blog Example Site #1.
