This page will be updated VERY soon to walk you step-by-step through posting to our updated website!
Welcome to Your New Website!
This site is for everybody in Angoon to use.
On this website, you can:
• Post information and upload files, including documents and images;
• Comment on other people’s posts; and,
• Upload links.
You have to be registered and logged in to take advantage of these features. The best way to learn the interface is to print this page for reference and try things out.
1. Getting Registered. The first step is to get registered—it is very easy. Click on the “Register” link in the sidebar in the lower right corner of the home page. WordPress, our blogging software, will ask you to choose a Username and provide your Email Address. Please use your real name as your Username so that we know who you are. Click “Register” and go and check your email—your password will be emailed to you. Please note that usernames and passwords are case sensitive.
When you log in, you will see a Welcome screen and a link to “Update your profile or change your password.” Please follow the link to add information to your profile and change your password.
2. Posting Information. In this section you will learn how to make posts, attach files, and insert images into your posts. After signing in, click on the “Write” tab. You will be taken to a new screen that will look like a basic online text editor, like Yahoo mail. Please fill out the “Title” field—it will become a title of your post.
To attach files (images, text, or any other), on the same text editor screen, scroll down to the “Upload” section which is located right under the text field. Click “Browse” and select a file to upload; fill out “Title” and “Description” fields, and click the “Upload” button. After your file is uploaded, you will be asked to choose a way to link your file to your post. Select “Link to File,” put your cursor in the body of your post where you want the link to appear in the text, and click the “Send to Editor” button. In the body of your message, in the text field, a link to your file will appear. You can move the link around to where you want it to be, if necessary. You can insert multiple files and links in your posts. Attachments are limited to 2MB.
When you are ready to publish your post, click the “Publish” button that is located under the text field. Your post will appear in the category that you have selected.
3. Commenting on Other People’s Posts. Find the post that you would like to comment on, click on its title to get to the post’s page. Scroll down and at the bottom of the page you will see a text box for comments—“Post a Comment.” Type in your comments in the text box and press the “Submit” button. Your first comment will have to be approved by the administrator. After your first comment is approved, your subsequent comments will not require approvals and will be published immediately.
More detailed instructions and explanations of additional featured are available on your “Dashboard” tab—follow the link to “Documentation” and “Support Forums.” Please don’t hesitate to contact Kim, your Business Center Coordinator, with questions.
