Please follow the steps listed below and you should see your name listed under the list of Current Students – Spring of 2016 on the left hand side of the dptcapstone page. The end is inching near – exciting stuff!!!!
Follow these steps:
1- Go to the bottom of the dptcapstone home page and click on Manage website.
2- This should take you to a dashboard page that includes multiple links along the left hand side of the page (black background). Depending on the view, you’ll either see words – or you may see icons. The thumbtack icon is the one for posts…..so click on that or the word Posts for more options.
- Click on Posts –
- Click on Add New –
- Name your post the title of your project (you can change this later if you’re not sure of a title). This way in the dashboard I can see topics/titles at a glance so I can help with tagging if necessary.
- Find the Categories box on the lower right hand side of the dashboard page – click the following categories:
- Current students
- Entry level students OR Transitional students depending on which you are
- Your name (this is how your name gets listed on the front page)
- AND scroll down further to click ANY Project Themes that are appropriate for your project – could be multiple categories depending on your focus. This is how projects will be found via the search feature and organized once your name isn’t on the first page.
- Then click on the Publish or Update button (blue on my screen, orange on others….or so I hear).
This will create an empty post that you can go back and populate later with your project information by clicking on the Edit button for that post.
If you aren’t seeing the Manage website button on the bottom of the dptcapstone.web.unc.edu page, then we need to do something different for you to access the site. Contact kmac@med.unc.edu to let her know you’re having trouble.
Thanks, we’ll try it this way and see if it works. Last year I created posts for people, but then they couldn’t edit them, so maybe this will work better!!!!
