Campuswire: Direct Messaging (DMs)

Direct Messages (DMs) can be used to communicate privately one-on-one with any student or instructor that has a PLU Campuswire account. DMs are accessed from the top of the tool menu to the left.


To start a new DM conversation with a user, either:
  • Navigate to DMs, click the Search for someone to DM button, enter a name or email address, and select the user under People. Users can be searched by Class/Group as well.
  • From the Class Feed, click a users profile icon, and click the Direct message button from the pop-up that appears.
  • Navigate to Settings, click the Class members tab, click the three-dot button to the right of the users name, and select Direct message user from the pop-up that appears.
  • Click the Live Users list to the bottom of the page and click a users name.
All created conversations will appear in a list in the DMs. To quickly search for an existing conversation, use the Filter DMs field above the list.

To delete or mute a conversation, hover over it, click the three-dot button, and select an option.


The Campuswire Help Center is available to the bottom-left of the page.
