My Imperial personalisation

New functionality for the My Imperial website

Objective

Personalisation was required to allow individual users the flexibility to make content changes on this website.

How to

This functionality is to allow you to view content that you find relevant. By clicking on the   button in the top right hand corner, you can access the ‘ Personalise’ links, through  which you can change the default settings / content initially set up for you. The content being which pages to see, which portlets within a page to see, and for some portlets, what content to see. Over the coming years new content will be added to this website and you can enable this content to be viewed through the personalise links.

Restoring defaults

Over time the default settings for student, staff etc will change as new content is added.  You can revert back to the default settings by restoring defaults and this can be done for

• a particular portlet (i.e. favourites on the home page)
• region (i.e. the right column on the home page)
• page
• and the whole website

Note: restoring defaults - This will reset your pages and their content to the default settings. You will lose any additional 'Favourites' links and 'News & Announcements' or 'Events' feeds that you may have set-up yourself. Links to do this are on the appropriate areas of the website.
