Logging Into Sitecore  

This page of the user guide will help Sitecore Contributors log in to Sitecore so that they are able to edit their pages. If you are not a Sitecore Contributor, you will have to take Sitecore Training before you are given access to the Sitecore editor. 

How to Log In 


Note

Sitecore is only accessible from web browsers such as Chrome and 

FireFox

Microsoft Edge. Sitecore will not function properly in Internet Explorer

.

There are two different links that can be used to log in. 

The test/training link below is the link you'll use for training and will look, feel, and react in a very similar manner to the live site. However, it is intended to be used for practice, testing, and for gauging what would happen on your USF live site if the changes being made were published. We encourage all editors to utilize this testing site as often as necessary to practice and test out changes before attempting to make changes within the live environment. 

Test/Training Environment: http://sitecoretestcms.hscnet.hsc.usf.edu/sitecore 

After passing the certification test and contributor access has been granted, edits can be made within the live Sitecore web pages. A contributor should be comfortable editing within the training site before making changes within the production site.
