Steps
Logging into your site
If your site has already launched
You can usually find the login screen under the Faculty and Staff section of your site, as in this example on the Department of Anthropology's website.
Or you can just add /user to your main url to get to the login screen.
Use your UGA myID and password to log into the site.
If you cannot access your site but know that you should be able to, please put in a ticket to the Franklin OIT Helpdesk via helpdesk.franklin.uga.edu.
If your site is in development
Visit your site's development url on the Franklin testing servers.
Your site will have a special development url while we are working on it together. It is usually your department or unit's four-letter code, plus "test.franklin.uga.edu."
For example, the Department of Anthropology's development url was https://anth.test.franklin.uga.edu, and English's was https://engl.test.franklin.uga.edu.
You can only access these development websites on campus, or with Remote Access VPN provided by EITS. Follow the link to set that up if you anticipate performing much work on your site from beyond campus.
To login, add /user to the url of your development site.

Step 1: Click the Login Link
Scroll to the bottom of your site and click the link that says "Login to manage site" or "Login for Faculty, Staff and Students". See screenshot below.
Then click the link on the resulting page that says "To login to this site, click here". See screenshot below.
Step 2: Login to CAS Using Your myID Account
Use your UGA myID and password to log into the site.
...
Once you are logged in
The login will bring you to your user account profile.
My user account name is "lblais."
This is not the same thing as a personnel page; it is only your user account info. We can't do anything with this, so ignore the "edit" button here.
For personnel wishing to edit their directory listing only
If you are a faculty member, staff or graduate student who is just trying to edit your personnel page or directory listing, simply navigate to your page via the directory like you normally would as a visitor. It may be under "People" or "Directory" in the main menu.
In this example, I am logged in as "zhurston" who has a role that allows her to edit her own personnel page only.
If you have the ability to edit your personnel page, you should see an edit button there.
...
Make your edits and save.
For help working with the text editor field (used for the Biography, Research detail and other fields), check out our Drupal Support page. There are How To's covering how to add images, links, pdfs, tables and more. Be sure to click on the Drupal 8 links specifically.
Clicking around
Differences between individual pieces of content and lists of content
The admin toolbar
If you don't see the links with the white background, click on "Manage."
This toolbar shows all the links that a web developer like me can see.
You will only be able to see or access these links:
- Content
- Structure
- Configuration
Working with content on your Drupal 8 site
All of your content can be found by clicking on the "Content" link.
If you would like to narrow your list, you can filter by Content Types (also known as content templates), like Article, Events, Basic Pages, etc.
I will explain more about these soon.
In this example, I'm only looking at content created with the Basic Page content template.
If you are on a web committee
Step 3: Get to Work!
Now that you are logged in, you will see a black and white administration menu at the top. Continue on with other help documents for managing your site content.
