Refreshing your Midwifery E-Portfolio

Hi all, your E-Portfolio's were desinged on an older version of SharePoint which has since been upgraded (which should hopefully solve the dreaded Vista issue). However as a result of any upgrade thee are initiall teething issues. These should be ironed out automatically over time, however if your a tad impatient you can follow this tutorial:

Log into your E-Portfolio like usual and you should be greeted with this hideous looking thing (click the image to make it bigger):
As you can see from the image, select the "Site Actions" link, (its a tiny bit tedious clicking this as, you might be able to tell the sites not behaving properly).

This should bring up the following options again apologise for the viewing difficulty (click the image to make it bigger):
Try and select the "visual upgrade" option, it'll quite annoyingly disappear if you roll you mouse over certain areas etc (its although its trying it hardest to annoy you!), my best method was to click where it says "previous one").

You'll then be greeted with this page (click the image to make it bigger):

Like it says in the image ignore all the initial options and focus where it says "Visual Upgrade" select the "update the user interface" option (it'll initially be on the "use the previous user interface" option).

Then select OK, and hopefully all should be ok!

Please get back to me if there are any new issues, hopefully this upgrade that the university has done will solve some of the more known issues with your e-Portfolio... which will be nice!
