Tips and Tricks for the New myTrent Portal
Apart from a new appearance, the myTrent Portal offers a variety of new and improved features.
Favourites
Drag and drop your most used icons onto your taskbar at the bottom of the window. They will be immediately available wherever you are in the portal.
Personalize/Passwords
You can change the look of your portal. Click on the silhouette at the top-left corner to access your password settings, upload a portrait, switch to high contrast iconography, or change your portal wallpaper.
Smarter Searching
The portal lets you search more effectively by adding keyword metadata to all content types. For example, you can search for Google Mail (students) or Outlook (staff), by just typing “email” into the portal’s search system.
You are not limited to searching for news, services, and forms. It will also search the staff and faculty directory. Just type name, department, or extension.
Mobile
The new portal has an all-new mobile interface that lets you access your news and many portal services through your phone’s browser.
