Posted by: | Posted on: December 7th, 2011 | 0 Comments

As a member in ETUG.ca, the default role for each member will be set as “contributor”. Contributors will have permission to create, edit, and delete their own posts. The posts will be sent to the Community Stewards for approval before published. With this role, Contributors can upload images, and other media to show in their posts.

Below is the steps to create a new post:

1. Add new post

Click on the “Add New” button at the top left of the site. Drop down menu will pop out, click on the “Post” button under “Add New” tab.

2. Add post content

Give your post a title and start adding the content to the content area.

3. Add media to post

You can add image, video, and audio to your post by clicking media icon above the post content. For more details, go to our post about “How to add media (image, video, and audio) to your post” (coming up).

4. Preview the post

View the post under “View Post” located at the top of the site or click on the “Preview” button.

5. Save as draft

If you don’t have enough time to finish your post, save the post as a draft by clicking “Save Draft” button. The system will also automatically save your post as a draft periodically.
