Once you have an account, you can log in to the back end of your Sites @ Grinnell domain by navigating to https://sites.grinnell.edu and clicking the cPanel Dashboard menu option. You will be logged in to your domain via single sign-on. 

From within cPanel, you can access your portfolio by clicking My Apps and then clicking the second link under your portfolio title (ending with /wp-admin/), which will log you in to the admin back-end of your portfolio website. 

Sites @ Grinnell keep regular back-ups (of the last 30 days of content) so have no fear in case of any glitches or issues! We will be able to restore your content using the latest backup. 

Sites @ Grinnell is a platform that allows Grinnell College community members to host their own domains at no cost (through the College’s partnership with Reclaim Hosting), providing web hosting that users can control and the freedom to host, explore, and play around with a wide variety of open-source web applications. 

You can use Sites @ Grinnell to build a portfolio site of your own: simply navigate to https://sites.grinnell.edu/ and click the “Request a Domain” button to make your request. You can indicate that you would like a WordPress site with the Art Portfolio Template installed on it, and you can choose your domain URL (the part that comes before sites.grinnell.edu).
