This section covers how to use Cascade CMS to edit content on the Northwest website. You will find how-to guides and additional resources to assist with edits.
Northwest Missouri State University uses Cascade CMS, a content management system, to maintain all pages hosted on the Northwest server. Cascade CMS allows individual staff members to maintain their websites without any additional software being purchased. This service is available from any computer or device with internet access – even off campus.
Your Northwest login credentials serve as your Cascade login after you have been granted access.
Contact the Web Team (webteam@nwmissouri.edu) if you have general questions in regards to using Cascade Server or need help adding to or updating your pages.
Before you begin working on your site, it's important to understand the basic foundations of the Cascade CMS service. Cascade Basics is the starting point for all new CMS users, and yes even seasoned pros could benefit from a refresher from time to time.
