New Regulations Effective in 2027

Dear Colleagues,

Our digital presence is the university’s calling card. To ensure that the quality, accessibility, and security of our websites remain at the highest level in the long term, we will be changing the way we assign accounts and organize training starting in 2027.

What’s changing, and why?

Until now, account assignment has been decentralized and training sessions open to all. This led to an enormous number of accounts that had become nearly impossible to manage. To streamline these processes and make them more secure, we are taking a new approach:

  • Focus on account allocation: The number of Typo3 accounts will be strictly limited in the future. Access will only be granted on a highly targeted basis to individuals who work intensively and regularly in web development.
  • Proven Qualifications: In the future, an account will require successful completion of a training course.
  • Flexible learning via Moodle: We are moving away from traditional in-person training and offering you a self-paced learning program via Moodle.
  • Simpler Usability: Depending on the qualifications you’ve earned, you’ll have corresponding permissions in Typo3. You’ll only see the functions you actually need.

We sincerely thank you for your understanding, your support, and your daily dedication to our university as we embark on this new path.


During the transition phase, we review new training requests based on specific editorial needs. Please fill out the questionnaire. Incomplete information will result in follow-up questions. Therefore, it would be great if you could take some time to fill out the questionnaire thoroughly. Thank you very much! We’ll then get back to you and let you know the next steps.

Check the need for web access

What do you need access to?
A separate account is not required for every task. If you are simply submitting content, reviewing it, or occasionally requesting changes, the work may be handled by someone who already has access.
How specific is the need?
If changes are made very rarely, a separate account is generally not required. Please check whether changes can be made through someone who already has the necessary authorization.
Is there already someone with access?
Replacement Instead of an Additional Account
If yes:
In the future, new accounts will generally only be granted if an existing account is discontinued. During the transition period, we will therefore only consider additional accounts if there is a demonstrated editorial need.
Confirm Responsibility
I will use this account regularly for editorial tasks.
I understand that accounts may be revoked if they remain inactive for an extended period.
I understand that, going forward, new accounts can generally only replace existing accounts.
I have checked to see if an existing account in my area can be used or transferred.
