Header contents
University of Sasktachewan websites share a common header convention so our users always know they're on a U of S website.
Your header contains:
- The U of S logo linking to usask.ca or a custom Logo linking to your homepage or both
- The title of your website
- A link to a parent site ( optional )
- An optional search box connected to usask.ca/search
- An optional PAWS link
Change your website title

- Open the header page in your _configuration folder
- Choose the Edit tab
- Enter your desired site name in Website title
- Submit your changes
- Publish the page
Avoid including "University of Saskatchewan", "U of S", or even "University" in your website title. These terms are redundant because the logo already signifies the University.
Add a parent site
If your site is a child of another website (e.g. a department site in a college site), add a link back to the parent site.
- Open the header page in your _configuration folder
- Choose the Edit tab
- Select Yes next to Add link to parent site
- Enter the title and link address of the parent site
- Submit your changes
- Publish the page
Add link to parent site is only visible when Website Logo is set to U of S Logo.
Search box
A search box that searches usask.ca/search appears by default in your header. Remove the search box if it doesn't fit the context of your website (e.g. a one-page marketing-style website probably doesn't need a search box).
- Open the header page in your _configuration folder
- Choose the Edit tab
- Select No next to U of S Search box
- Submit your changes
- Publish the page
PAWS link
Add a link to PAWS in your header if that fits the context of your website (e.g. your site contains content that frequently references PAWS).
- Open the header page in your _configuration folder
- Choose the Edit tab
- Select Yes next to PAWS link
- Submit your changes
- Publish the page
