Custom Widgets
Customize your portal
You’re unique, so stop trying to fit into a box. Design custom widgets that surface the most important news and information to your students right in the main portal dashboard.

Your Dream Widgets
You dream it, we’ll make it
Pathify’s Core Portal comes with our most commonly requested widgets, but we know you’ll want more. That’s where custom widgets come in. Whether you want to surface sports scores, newsfeeds, campus maps, faculty-specific information or something totally different, custom widgets make your portal truly valuable and useful to your individual institution.
Common Custom Widget Types
News
Surface sports scores, custom news feeds, daily content delivery (like a motivational quote), anything your students might be interested in at a glance.
Trackers & Checklists
Help students keep track of things like profile completion, requirements or countdowns to important events. Add checklists and document upload widgets to help keep them on track.
Student Life
Everything a student needs to know to be happy, healthy and successful: dining hall menus, public transportation maps, job boards and health and wellness information
Academics
Put academic insight and help at their fingertips with widgets that show grades, display advisor information and more. You can also create faculty-specific widgets for faculty users.
