Getting Started

Visit the MyPostings training materials for complete MyPostings documentation.

Here is a list of MyPostings IDs you can use to pull specific posts into your University of San Diego (USD) web pages.

Everything documented below is supplementary to the original MyPostings documentation, and is specific to MyPostings form choices for USD.

All posts have to clear content review by the respective approver associated with the school and/or departments selected as destinations.

USD News & Events Centers

USD has launched two new MyPostings-driven sites for their News Center and Events Center.

Departments

You can choose more than one department if you'd like your post to appear, for example, on other websites in addition to USD websites. Click on the "+" button to add multiple departments.

The following departments relate to the USD websites specifically:

Filters

USD has specific filters for posting location, audience, and subjects. Please select all applicable filters for your specific post.

All filters below work in combination with the selected department within USD.

Filters: Where to Post (Destination)

Where to Post determines which locations (i.e. web page(s) or email newsletter) your post will display on.

So, which filters do you choose to get your post to show in certain locations?

All Students
Alumni
CAS
Everyone
Faculty
Graduate Students
Military / Veterans
Prospective Students
Undergraduate Students

Note: Marking a post as important to a specific audience does NOT prevent any other audiences from seeing the post (i.e., this does not "hide" anything).

Filters: Subjects

Adding subject filters to your post will allow your post to appear on the corresponding front-end subject in the "Filter by Topic" area of the News Center and Events Calendar.

They are also used to target specific audiences. For example, if an event is meant specifically for alumni and students, you would select "CAS: Alumni" and "CAS: Student Success."
