News

News items are separate from regular blog posts, and are displayed on the News page.

Adding and editing news posts

From the WordPress dashboard, click News on the left menu to bring up the full listing. To edit an existing news post, click its name in the list; to add a new news post, click Add New at the top of the page.

On the Edit News page, there are several fields available:

  • Title: this title is displayed in the listing on the News page and on the individual post page.
