Overview

Excerpt

MyUWF's search functionality allows users to find Apps, People, Departments, and Locations as results. This article explains how searching works in MyUWF.

Warning

On April 1st, the ability to search for people and departments from the uwf.edu website will be disabled. This change is being made for security reasons in order to limit the amount of directory information that could potentially be used by malicious actors to compromise our systems. After the change is made, the search feature on the main website will solely be used to search for websites hosted by UWF. Use the instructions below or the instructions at Searching the Campus Directory (employee login required to access page) to locate directory information. 


Basic Searching

Note

You can search whether you are logged in or logged out. Searching while logged in returns more results, so if you don't see what you're looking for, ensure that you've logged in first.

  • the Art department
  • employees with the title "Art Director"
  • locations like the Art Gallery
  • people with the name "Arthur"
  • any other results with the letters "art" in the name or description

Note that as soon as you start typing, MyUWF will start searching. As you type "art" and then type "arth," the results will be readjusted in the dropdown menu based on your search term.
