UPDATING WEBPAGES

First, how to update webpages:
1. Login to the church website through the LOGIN menu in the lower left.  Not all pages have the login menu; if needed, click the Home page to find the login form.

2. username <user> password <password>
3. after doing so, you should see that the articles in the website look slightly different, as they now have a paper-pencil icon next to the title, as in the screenshot below.

4. Click the icon.
There are several elements here worth noting.

- Changing the title will change the title appearing in the webpage. 
- There is usually no need to change the category, unless it has been categorized inappropriately.
- Intro Text is a necessary content area, you need to put copy here. Above that is the formatting toolbar.
- Formatting Toolbar has italics, bold, center align, etc.
- Insert Image is how you put in available images from the media library.  Currently only administrators (at the moment the webmaster and members of the communication ministry) have the ability to add an image which is not in the media library.  Unfortunately what this means is that if you have an image you want in your article, you need to email it to  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it .  This is however, just temporary until a solution can be implemented.
- Clicking the "Insert Page break" button will put in a page break for long articles.
- "Main Text (optional)" is when you want to hide part of the article under a read more link, as will be done for all front page items.  It has it's own formatting toolbar as well.
