MyPostings Modules

A MyPostings Module only displays your site's or page's MyPostings feed. Visit the MyPostings documentation for how to create a posting in the MyPostings system.

A MyPostings module pulls news or events from the on-campus news events system, MyPostings. The only items that will be pulled into the module are items associated with your department in the system. When your site was transitioned into this new 2015 design, a web developer associated your site with MyPostings. But if Each site is associated with a MyPostings ID. If you feel at any time that your MyPostings modules are pulling the wrong items, please contact web@sandiego.edu to have the issue resolved submit a ticket to http://www.sandiego.edu/web-requests/.
