How to Add News

  1. Click "Create Content" on the navigation menu (the menu on the left)
  2. Click "Story"
  3. Type in an attention grabbing title
  4. Select an appropriate category (Drupal Taxonomy Term) on the News Pull-Down. Not Exhaustive, but heres a brief idea of my thinking behind each of the categories:
    • Website News: Changes to the website, outages of the website, etc.
    • Server News: Server crashes, upgrades, etc.
    • Role-Play News: IC-centric news, RP Seminar Announcements, RP Logs
    • Real Life News: Real life ups and downs (marriages, jobs, etc.)
    • Game Development->Building News: News about (re)construction going on around the muck...
    • Game Development->Programming News: News about new programs, fixed old programs, and so on.
    • General News: Stuff that doesn't seem to fit anywhere else.
    • Staff News: I'm not sure...
  5. Enter the story/news/article content in the body box
  6. (Optional)If the story is pretty long: After you've written the whole article, select a point where to separate the text into teaser/full story and click "split summary at cursor"
  7. Make sure Publishing Options "Published" and "Promote to front page" are checked
  8. Click "Save"
