Create an account
Anyone needing to edit a blog has to create an account on CU Blogs. Doing so is as easy as just logging it. That's it!
Here are the precise steps:
- Go to <https://blogs.cornell.edu/wp-login.php>
- Click the blue button that says, "Use My ID" in the top box (just under the words, "Log in to my blog").
- This will take you to a NetID authentication page. On that page, enter your NetID and password and press, "Login".
That's it! Having done this will create an account with CU Blogs.
PI's: Create your research group's blog site.
- Choose a short name, for the URL. Most often this is the PI's last name.
