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.
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 those only wishing to edit their personnel page or directory listing
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.
If you don't see the edit button, please put in a ticket to the Franklin OIT Helpdesk via helpdesk.franklin.uga.edu.
Make your edits and save.
