What is Easy Edit Suite?

Easy Edit Suite is a simple editing interface within MySource Matrix, developed by Squiz. Easy Edit Suite (EES) supersedes the previous version, known as Control Panel.

EES enables users to update and maintain content easily and efficiently within a simplified environment without the need of extensive training and knowledge of web practices.

Getting Permission to Edit Sites

Before Web Services can give you permission to edit sites you must attend an Easy Edit Suite training workshop and pass the Writing for the Web quiz (accessed on MyLO).

Once you've completed the training you need to contact the IT Helpdesk by email service.desk@utas.edu.au or phone +61 3 6226 1818 requesting permission to edit your site. You will also need to provide authorisation to edit your site by your head of section.

Accessing Easy Edit Suite

Once you have completed the training and been give permissions to edit your site, simply add /_edit to the end of the url and a login screen will be displayed.

Please note that you do need to be on a page within your site for this to work, i.e. if I wanted to edit the web services site, the URL http://www.utas.edu.au/it/web-services/home becomes http://www.utas.edu.au/it/web-services/home/_edit.

Now login with your UTAS username and password and EES will load.

Control Panel Users

If you've been using Control Panel to edit your site in the past, you may not need to attend an EES training workshop. However, we recommend you download the Easy Edit Suite training manual (PDF 2.5MB) for your reference.
