LiveWhale CMS Help
LiveWhale is the content management system (CMS) that we use to keep the Penn Nursing site current, informative, engaging, and interesting. It’s designed to be as easy as possible for staff, faculty, and students to use.
The pages in this section are designed to provide you with the information and tools necessary to be able to easily update the site at your convenience. If you ever have questions about making a change to a page, adding dynamic content, building an event, or anything website related, you can submit a website request to get further support.
First, let’s cover some basic operating instructions.
Logging In
Click here to log in with your PennKey. If you do not have access, you can submit a request to get access.
Once logged in, you can edit pages by clicking the Edit Page link in the top left corner of the page you would like to edit, or navigate to the content you want to make changes to via the Dashboard.
After making changes to pages, you will need to submit a website request so changes can be reviewed and published by the Nursing Website team.
Editing Pages
If you log in using the Editor Login footer link, you’ll be returned to the last site page you visited. The only difference will be the CMS toolbar at the top of the page.
Static Content
To edit the static text and static images on one of your pages, just go to that page. If you’re authorized to edit the page, you’ll see an Edit Page link at top left; click that to begin page editing! Click here to learn more about Content Layouts.
Dynamic Content
All dynamic content is created and managed in the Dashboard (blue button on top right). This will be where you create, edit, and manage the following content types:

Accessibility
Web content editors must ensure they are following WCAG 2.0 Accessibility standards(opens in a new tab) when creating content. These guidelines seek to improve the experience for those with visual, auditory, memory, context, or physical mobility impairments.
Following these guidelines will ensure information presented on the website is accessible to all users, whether they’re using screen-readers to listen to content, or simply reading the page.
