What's my new URL?

  • If you requested a Basic PubWeb site:
    • www.ndsu.edu/pubweb/~yourunixid
      (i.e. www.ndsu.edu/pubweb/~jdoe)
  • If you requested an Enhanced PubWeb site without a redirect in place:
    • www.ndsu.edu/pubweb/sitename
      (i.e. www.ndsu.edu/pubweb/media)
  • If you requested an Enhanced PubWeb site with a redirect in place:
    • The URL will be the same as the previous URL

What's a "redirect"?

Redirect: When we make changes to the server so that visitors to the old location (URL) will be sent automatically to the new, correct location on PubWeb.
