This quick how-to page and screencast shows how to add a link and image to your site in the right column
This is the image that we are going to place in the right (third) column of your department's site.
- Select the HTML below by highlighting everything in the blue box and hitting Control+C on your keyboard
- Go to your website in a new window or new tab. In this example we'll use the Anatomy department at http://louisville.edu/medschool/anatomy
- Log in to your site (upper right hand corner)
- Click "Manage Portlets" link in the right column
- From the "Add portlet" drop-down menu, select "Static text portlet" (last option)
- Give your portlet a title. E.g. "University of Louisville Physicians"
- In the body portion, click the HTML icon to be able to paste in the HTML code that you copied to your clipboard in step #1
- Paste in the HTML code
- Check the box that says "omit portlet border"
- Click the save button
- Lastly, go to any page in your site to see if the changes were successful
<a href="http://uoflphysicians.com/" title="Visit site">
