2025 Web Redesign Transition

New website templates are being introduced for 2025. Not all information in the UMB Website Manual has been updated yet, and may still refer to the pre-2025 templates.

Silktide is an application that scans the UMB website for issues relating to quality assurance, search engine optimization, accessibility, and more.

It can be useful in identifying spelling errors and broken links, but our main focus is on correcting accessibility issues. Web content managers should use this tool to identify and correct common accessibility issues on the pages of umaryland.edu that they oversee.

Once you have been assigned access, log into Silktide and get started!

UMB is transitioning to Silktide as its primary tool for checking website accessibility.

Additional information, including login information, will be available soon.
