Trouble shooting getting your name on the student website list
Go to eCampus and in the left hand column, click on "Web Directory". Underneath that, click on "Student Websites". Your name should appear in that alphabetical list of students who have student websites.

In class, we made an index page that you were supposed to upload to the public folder. Within 24 hours of putting that index page into your public folder, you name should appear on the list.

If you do not have a public folder, you need to see the folks at the Computing Center Help Desk right away. It's possible that you don't have one, even though you're supposed to have one. This can take up to 48 hours to fix, so report it ASAP.

If your name isn't showing in the list of student websites, here are some things to double check before going to the Computing Center Help Desk:


 * The websites are listed by first name . . . the first of your legal names. So if you go by "Hildy" but your real name is Millicent Mahildabob McIntyre, then your page will be listed under Millicent and not Mahildabob or Hildy.
 * The index page you uploaded must be called index.html or index.htm
 * make sure that it doesn't start with a capital "I"
 * make sure it doesn't have a space in it
 * make sure it is spelled correctly
 * The index page must be in the Public folder on your H: drive
 * if you can see your index page and your public folder on the same screen, you need to move the index page to be inside the public folder
 * if you have multiple folders inside your public folder, they each have an index page inside of them but in addition to that, there should be an index page inside the public folder
 * If none of those were applicable to you, then you need to go to the Computing Center help desk.
