How do I make my own CSE webpage?
The preferred method at CSE is through the use of Plone. To create a website, first create an account by going to the CSE website and joining the site. From there it is easy to add content. For more information, please see our Plone user guide. The alternative method is via Apache on the shell server. Please let us know if you decide to use this method as it requires a special setup be done by us.
First create a directory named public_html in your home directory on the shell server. You can do this by
running the command: $ mkdir public_html. Then create a file named index.html in your public_html directory, you can do this by running he following command: $ vi ~/public_html/index.html in that file put HTML code, something like:
<HTML>
<BODY>
Hello, World!
</BODY>
</HTML>
After you save the file you have now completed making your webpage.
The only other thing you might have to do is to set permissions so that others can see your web page. The following commands would do that:
$ chmod go+x ~
$ chmod -R go+rx ~/public_html
Once you are done with your website you can get it listed on the CSE website in the directory and by contacting technical support and requesting that your page be listed.
