 ==== Differences from a normal wordpress site ====
 Being a multi-site installation, there are a few differences between a normal wordpress site and a CIM-hosted site.  The most impactful one being the inability to install plugins on a per-site basis.  As the system is centrally managed and updated, plugin and template installation need to be done by CIM administrators.  If you need any specific plugin, let us know and we'll take care of the installation.
 ===== Dokuwiki System =====
 Similarly to the wordpress system, CIM also hosts wiki-style pages (ie, the site you are currently on).  If you or your group would like a wiki to manage information, contact us and we will be glad to set it up for you.
 ===== Custom solutions =====
 If you have any specific web hosting needs, contact us at support@cim.mcgill.ca and we can discuss custom solutions to suit your needs.
