Similar to migrating your personal information, you have two different methods for maintaining your course content: 1) the easy-to-use course upload via forms method; or 2) a simple link to your own custom-made content.

For every course you teach, a View and Edit link will appear next to that course under Services -> Edit Your Bren Info.

If you wish to use your own personalized course page, just add a homepage link for the course edit form page and click on the nearby Submit. Once you link to your own homepage, a linkable homepage icon appears next to the course on the Courses page as well as the homepage link on the individual Course page.

1. New Easy-To-Use Forms Method

In the red toolbar above, go to Services -> Edit Your Bren Info. Then click on Edit next to the course you wish to edit.

Upload content here according to the type of section (Lectures, Readings, etc. or your own title). HTML pages are preferred, but you can upload any type of file (pdf, Word, PowerPoint, etc.). The content will be loaded, linked and sorted by date.

2. Revert-to-Old Quick Fix

Most all of the previous course content was maintained by the individual faculty member. All the old content under www.bren.ucsb.edu/fac_staff/fac/ has been transferred over, including any course content below it. You can relink to this old content by using the old link for the course.

To get things quickly linked back to that old content you can just enter the old URL to the homepage textbox, and hit Submit.

We will eventually want to move all content out of this location, and relink to the location discussed below with option 3, or using the new method of option 1.

3. Move Content to Preferred Unix public_html directory

Web content placed in the U:\public_html folder will automatically show up at

http://www2.bren.ucsb.edu/~username

where username is your Bren username. You can edit content using FrontPage.

Very soon, we will provide a template to replace the old Bren look. Check back here for updates.
