How to activate and publish a personal profile page - Screencast

Here is my first screencast fresh from the press. Its intended for a student assistant who will activate and publish the schools personal profile pages. But it might be also interesting for other web content coordinators.
What I plan to do is outlined here in the plea for a student assistant document.
And here is the form to collect the necessary information to launch all profiles. But here is my first screencast for SBE. Enjoy

The brandingblock problem and its solution

From the early days one problem came up regularly. brandingblocks that where put in as pagesections where messed up. Like this one:


The problem with the brandingblocks on different pages is that they don’t have the correct layout. The correct layout is: “UM inzet linkerkolom (zonder titel)”, see below.


You can select the proper layout for the (branding block) page section as follows:
 File > Properties > design


I have adjusted the brandingblock that is used on the page:
http://www.maastrichtuniversity.nl/web/Faculties/SBE/TargetGroup/Professionals.htm

You can assign the correct layout to the other brandingblocks (SBE_PGE) by passing the settings on to the page sections on the same level. (Only for the Brandingblocks!!!The other page sections have a design of their own)
