News/Announcement/Event Posts = News
Tips: Keep the title short preferably less than 10 words (Think about a News Headline) Do not use any fancy font for the body. If pasting content, do as unformatted text Do not clutter pictures in the post. Use appropriate sizes Title Body News/Announcement/Event
Tips: A post can be scheduled to publish on a later date. Edit the “Published on” date to schedule Set the category that corresponds to only your club/area. For example, if CIBER then only CIBER and not “Centers and Programs” (the parent category) Set the tags that make sense. If you think a post is worthy of being featured on the homepage, add the tag “Featured” (Note only 4 most recent Featured posts get shown) Every post should have a Featured Image. It not only enhances the appearance of the post but also helps locate the post easily in the listing or Newsletter Scheduling Category Tags Featured Image News/Announcement
Tips: Set Category and Event Category as same Checking “Hide from Upcoming Events List” will hide the event from showing on the upcoming events widget on homepage as well as the list view. The event would still show up in the Calendar Check “Hide from Upcoming Events List” for events like: classes start, spring break ends, etc. Category Event Category Featured Image Event Tags
Excerpt Tips: Summarize the post using Excerpt. The excerpt is used throughout the website and also while posting to external websites like Facebook and Twitter News/Announcement/Event
Event Date/Time Location Tips: For events that span multiple days check “All day event?” For recurring events, create separate events Fill out as much information about the venue as possible. If location is Rawls, no need to enter Address, City, Country, State, Postal Code or Phone Checking Google Map options in Location would show an embedded Google Map (only if the Address is set) Event organizer and cost details are not used
