  5. In the Category box select '-News Bulletins'
  6. In the white area under 'Article text', above the line, add a summary of no more than 140 characters, e.g. 'Bishop will confirm 25 candidates'. It's meant to wet the appetite of the reader to read more. The summary will appear on where ever articles are listed, including in the Recent News section on the home page:
    RTENOTITLE
  7. Below the line add the full text of the news item. If you want to put a contact name in, click the Link button above (it's shown as a chain link). Click contacts and explore the drop downs till you get the name you want. Type that name in the box above and then click 'insert'. If the name doesn't appear you will have to create the contact (see guidelines for this elsewhere on this Wiki.)
  8. In the 'Publishing Options' section, click 'Select User' and enter your name.
  9. Enter today's date in the 'Created Date' and 'Start Publishing' boxes. In the 'Finish Publishing' box enter a date two months hence, unless the News Bulletin is advertising an event in which case the 'Finish Publishing' date should be the date of the event. Note: it may drop off the 'Recent News' box on the Home page before this date, depending on the number of items in the box. But it will be available under the Resources menu drop down until the 'Finish Publication' date.
