Personal details

You are in control of the inner content (circled in red on the picture):

1. Create a userdetails.html file in your ndrive/public_html/ folder ⁽¹⁾
2. Ask the Met admin to update the page to take it into account: email met-lists@lists.reading.ac.uk

All other details such as room number, phone number, title and one line profile summary will have to be edited by the Met admin. Please email any request to met-lists@lists.reading.ac.uk

⁽¹⁾ The userdetails.html file is pure html. Download an example (rename it userdetails.html)
You can check if the file is visible on the web under the URL: http://www.personal.reading.ac.uk/~<yourUsername>/userdetails.html
If the file is not visible, look at the instructions here (last paragraph), or use the dedicated tool (Publish public_html) on RDS.

From Windows, access your Ndrive following instructions here.
From Linux, the easiest it to access your Ndrive from the web interface: https://netdrive.reading.ac.uk/

Note that for some “previous” users, the file may be hosted under their unix web directory, now available at /storage/silver/metweb/<username>/public_html/ and visible under http://www.met.reading.ac.uk/~<username>/userdetails.html
