  • Then preview the section again.

Note:

Pop-up blockers display differently in different browsers. The instructions above are for Google Chrome. If you are using Internet Explorer (blue E icon), or Firefox, or Safari, do a google search to make sure you recognise the pop-up blocker when it displays.

Publishing and Style

Sites will publish on an hourly schedule as before. There's no change to the appearance of your website, so pages should display as before. If your website is displaying oddly please email cmssupport@ucc.ie
