Creating Artifacts

You can create an artifact from the TWU Portfolio Dashboard widget, and in the Dashboard under TWU Portfolio -&gr; Add New.

Add New menu under TWU Portfolio menu

Also, any time while viewing your portfolio while logged in, look under the New menu for Artifact.

Adding an artifact from the front admin menu under 'New'

Adding an artifact is exactly the same process as writing a blog post– you create a descriptive title, write a reflection using media and links where appropriate, check the applicable categories for the artifact on the right side of the editor, add any tags, and include a featured image that is used to represent the artifact on the listings in your site.

Your most recent artifacts will appear on the front page of the your site, as well as for the main index of all portfolio items (at an address like https://create.twu.ca/myportfolioname/portfolio).

Your template site comes with three example artifacts that you should delete once you begin adding your own. You can do this by navigating in your dashboard to TWU Portfolio -> All Artifacts. If you move your mouse over any artifact title, you will see a link below for Trash that will delete it.
