The CMS website contains information about and instructions for the KU CMS.
A New KU CMS is Almost Here!
KU Marketing & Communications and KU Information Technology have developed a new version of the KU content management system called KU CMS - Sunflower. The new KU CMS uses an updated version of Drupal, so expect a mix of numerous new elements with some familiar concepts and features. Be on the lookout for more details via email in early-August.
See a Live Site in KU CMS - Sunflower
Take a look at admissions.ku.edu. That is the first live KU CMS - Sunflower site. It was built almost entirely using the new sections and clonable templates that will be available to you.
When Do Sites Need to Be Migrated?
All current KU CMS sites in Drupal 7 must be manually migrated to KU CMS - Sunflower by November 21, 2021. KU IT assistance is available to help meet this timeline.
How do I Request a KU CMS – Sunflower Site?

What You Can Do Now to Get Ready?
We strongly encourage all CMS site owners to begin the site migration process as soon as possible. To assist you, we are providing a step-by-step Site Migration Plan. View the Site Migration Plan »
New cms.ku.edu
In summer 2020, cms.ku.edu was updated to exclusively detail information and resources for KU CMS - Sunflower. This legacy version of cms.ku.edu will continue to be available after that time at cms-drupal7.ku.edu until all sites in the original Drupal 7 KU CMS are migrated to KU CMS - Sunflower.
The KU CMS
The University of Kansas uses a content management system (CMS) to ensure a consistent user experience, rich content and easy access to the information KU site visitors are seeking.
