Web hosting
At j2e, we can host your j2e school websites, in a way that does not need
www.j2e.com on the URL line of your browser. All your pages will appear to reside on your own site, giving you a strong corporate identity.
Here is an example www.stokes.leics.sch.uk which is a j2e page, but appears under their own URL.
Setting up
You need a domain name from a domain provider, eg www.myschool.co.uk, or a shorter form of myschool.co.uk.
You need a DNS record set up that directs that domain to our server, IP address 83.170.96.216
You need to contact us, tell us your domain name, and your j2e account.
There will probably be a charge for this in the future....
We may offer a service to do all this for you...
The pages have to be created using j2e.
Your school web pages
Create your school web pages in the Admin account. Set one of these pages as your home page. This will be the page that people get when they enter just your domain name.
You can create links from that page to other pages you save in the Admin account.
When opened from your domain name, all the pages you create will appear to be within your school domain, and not on j2e. The admin part of the URL you would see in j2e is also neatly removed.
You can still open the pages from within j2e.com as well, it just picks up the domain name you used to access the page.
If you add a ?edit on the end of your page URL, you will enter the j2e editor, even though the page still appears to be hosted on your domain.
Your pupils web pages
Pupil web pages can also appear to be in your domain. They will have a URL of www.myschool.co.uk/pupil/page (This has not yet been tested...)
Clearly only published pages will be visible to anyone not signed on to j2e.
