KMICMS - Wagtail CMS

KMICMS is our Wagtail content management system (CMS) for managing and serving the content on the SOWN website.

The source code is available on GitHub: sown/kmicms.

Access

The admin interface is accessible at https://www.sown.org.uk/admin.

This service is publicly accessible, but requires authentication.

Permissions

Wagtail has a flexible permissions model, but at a basic level we have two groups integrated with SOWN SSO:

  • kmicms:staff - grants permission to access Wagtail Admin.
  • kmicms:superuser - grants superuser permissions.

These permissions are refreshed on login, so if you have additional permissions granted you may need to logout and log back in.

Hosting

KMICMS is hosted on containers-prod.

It is not currently managed by ansible.

Staging

There is additionally a staging instance of KMICMS, for testing purposes. It is hosted on containers-dev.

The staging site can be accessed at https://sown-staging.containers-dev.sown.org.uk.

The permissions groups for the staging site are:

  • kmicms:staging:staff - grants permission to access Wagtail Admin.
  • kmicms:staging:superuser - grants superuser permissions.
