LiveWhale is the content management system (CMS) used for the Northeastern Giving site. It’s designed to be as easy as possible for anyone to use.
This section is designed to provide you with the information and tools necessary to be able to easily update the site at your convenience.
Let’s start with the basics:
Logging in
There’s an “Editor Login” link in the footer of every page of the site. Click that link to log in using the same username and password that you use to access your NE email.
If you have difficulty logging in using your Northeastern credentials, please contact us ASAP and we’ll get you squared away!
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. To edit 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 right; click that to begin page editing.
