    Hey guys, in need of some help here! Basically, we're one of the societies in UCD and we want to re-design our website. We re-newed the site as UCD's IT page told us to and received a username and password but aren't sure how exactly, and where, to log in. We've asked the IT people, who re-directed us to contact Liz Cronin in the Students' Consultative Forum. We contacted her but she re-directed us back to the IT people. We're kind of at a loss for what to do here. If anybody could help us out with the issue, we'd be really grateful! Thanks!

    The user name and password are details of an ftp account. Currently you can only build basic HTML sites on UCD's hosted sites.
    So you need to build the site on a local machine, e.g. your laptop, and when finished you upload the files via an ftp program such as filezilla.
    I've had experience doing this for one of the sports clubs. If you have any further questions, let me know. :)

    Thanks for that. Think I should be able to figure it out from here! :)
