News Categories allow you to have multiple news/blog areas for different Classes, Governors, Parents or just one which covers the whole school. Dependent on your design, you may have already been set up with a News Category which feeds News Stories through to the homepage.
- Navigate to the area of your website where you would like to create a News or Blog category and you will be able to create a News Category if you have the permissions to do so.
- Select News or Blog from the Create tab. The News/Blog Category dialog window will appear.
- Enter a name for your category in the Category Name field e.g. "Latest News" or "Headteacher's Blog".
- Enter a description for your category in the Category Description field. For example "Read the latest school news here".
- Click Create to save your Category.
The page will refresh and an empty News or Blog Category will be displayed.
