If you cannot access your site, but know that you should be able to, please put in a ticket to the Franklin OIT Helpdesk

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.

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.

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.
