Writing a news article

Create an article in the Quick Start Share site so that it can then be added to asset collections to be included as website content. Content created within the Quick Start Editorial branch of the site is automatically given the type ws:article.

This task assumes you are in the Document Library page component of the Quick Start site and that the Show Folders feature is enabled.

Navigate to SkyVault Quick Start > Quick Start Editorial > root > news.
Select the subsection where you wish to add a new article: companies, global, or markets.
As an example, selecting global displays the contents of the Global Economy page in the demo website: two articles and their related images. An article created here will display on the Global Economy page.
Click Create Content and then select HTML.

The Create Content page appears.
Type a name for the page. This is the filename for the item in the Document Library.
The Name field does not support the following special characters: * " < > \ / . ? : and |. When the name contains a disallowed character, the Create button is disabled.
Note: There is an exception regarding the period: the content name can include a period as long as it is not the last character. This allows you to add an extension (for example, .txt, .html, or .xml).
Provide a title and description.
This is the information that will appear on the web page.
Type the content in the Content box.
Use the features provided to format the text; insert bulleted and numbered lists; insert or edit links, anchors, and images; and insert and customize tables. To assist with editing, use the undo, redo, and remove formatting features as needed. Position the cursor over an icon to display its function. Click and drag the bottom right corner to resize the text editor.
Click Create.
The page closes and the item list displays the newly created HTML content. This article is now available to be added to web pages through a static or dynamic asset collection.
