Body
The new MySHU portal brings in content from commonly accessed resources of the university into one environment. Through what's known as "cards" students and staff will be able to see personalized and custom content that will help with navigating through all the various university resources. The following page will go over how to navigate the platform and the options available for customization.
Portal Navigation
Upon logging in, the first screen displayed will be the portal's Home Page. This page will display active announcements (1), pending notifications (2), and content cards that are either pre-selected (3) or bookmarked (4) by the account holder.
To find additional content:
Cards are grouped into categories which can be accessed directly from the Home Page (2) or through the Main Menu icon (1). To view all available content select the View All Cards (3) option.
After selecting the View All Cards link, or All Cards option from the main menu, navigate to the search tool to search and find specific cards.
Tags are displayed under the search tool and can be selected to help sort and return specific content.
Quick access to common support resources can be found in the Resources section of the main menu. Select the main menu icon (1) to open the side panel, then select Resources to view the available resources (2).
Customization
Cards have the ability to be added, removed, or re-arranged.
To rearrange the order of the cards:
Select the top section of the card (1) and drag the card (2) to a desired location (3). Any affected cards will then shift down or to the right one space.
Certain cards may be "locked" and cannot be rearranged.
To add or remove cards:
Cards that are not locked will have a bookmark icon in top-right corner of their card. These cards can be added or removed as desired.
Select an empty bookmark icon (1) to save the card and add it to the home screen (2).
Cards can be removed from the home screen by deselecting the bookmark icon.
A prompt will appear for a card that's been successfully removed.
Announcements follow a scheduled time to appear and disappear. Announcement cards are managed by the admin team and cannot be removed.
To add custom links or tasks:
The My Web Links and To-Do List cards offer the ability to add custom URLs and tasks to a card.
To add a web link, select the Add New Link button and enter a display name for the link (1) as well as the URL (2) then select the Add button (3) when done.
Similarly, to add a task, select the Add New Task button. Enter the task (limited to 1024 characters) and a reminder option, then select the Add button.
To edit, or delete, a task or web link select the three dots on the card then select Edit or Delete.
