How do I add an event report?

1. Log in to the Wordpress CMS at by clicking ‘admin’ on the top menu.

2. On the left navigation menus, under Posts, click ‘Add New’.

3. Fill in the title. See http://www.grammarbook.com/punctuation/capital.asp for tips about how to capitalize your title in English.

4. Fill in the content. If you already have formatted text (i.e. from Word), make sure to post in HTML mode. The reason for this is that Word has formatting that sometimes do not fit on the site. After pasting the text in the HTML mode, add back in the links in the following format:
<a href=”http://someurl.com” target=”someurl”>name of link</a>
e.g. <a href=”http://google.com” target=”google”>Google</a>
The target part is to ensure a new tag or window pops up to show the page. That way, the visitor will not have navigated away from our site.

5. Leave the excerpt field blank. To create an excerpt, place the cursor in the content above which you want the excerpt. Everything above this point is the excerpt and displayed during listings. Click the ‘more’ button to place the tag.

6. Add keywords from the content to the tags (upper right). Use all lower case. Tags with multiple words allowed. Separate tags with commas. See http://armchairtheorist.com/2008/05/22/top-10-tagging-best-practices-for-anything-web-20/ for tips on tagging.

7. For categories (right bottom), unclick ‘Uncategorized’ and click ‘reports’.

8. Click the ‘Save’ button or ‘Publish’ button, if you have the right to publish (right middle, under tags).

8. In another window or tab of your browser, go check how the post looks on the site using the permalink (under the title). Update if necessary.
