Summary
This tutorial explains how to manually override the displayed job title for a faculty or staff member in the CWU web directory. It covers how to enable the Manual Title Override option, enter a custom job title, preview the changes, run content and accessibility checks, and publish the updated profile page to the live website.
Please note that overriding the job title in the web directory does not change the employee’s official title in the system of record. This feature only changes the title displayed on the website.
When editing a web directory profile page, you will now see an option labeled "Enable Manual Title Override."
Step 1
To override the default faculty or staff title, select "Yes" under "Enable Manual Title Override" to display the "Custom Job Title" field, and enter the desired title in the "Custom Job Title" field.
Note: Once Manual Title Override is enabled, the "Custom Job Title" field becomes required.
Step 2
Click on "Preview Draft."
Step 3
Review the preview to confirm that the new title appears correctly under the faculty or staff member’s name, then click "Submit."
Step 4
When prompted, enter a Version Comment, then click "Check Content & Submit" to scan the page for misspellings, broken links, and accessibility issues. If any issues are found, correct them or confirm that the content is accurate, then click the check mark in the upper-right corner of the Content Check report.
Note: Clicking "Submit" instead of "Check Content & Submit" will bypass these checks.
Step 5
Once the page has passed the content checks, click "Publish" to push the changes to the live website.
Note: Updates to the web directory may take up to 24 hours to appear on the live site.
