The DMSP course uses a multiuser version of wordpress for publishing content on-line.\u00a0 The purpose of these blogsites is to generate an exciting and valuable record of the development of your project, publish your submissions for assessment and share your research with a wider public.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Remember, the sites are world readable, you\u2019re publishing, so please use a tone of voice that is professional and courteous. Please ensure that you do not infringe the copyrights of other’s work.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

For full instructions on how to use wordpress, you should visit the\u00a0wordpress.org<\/a>\u00a0homepage where how to use the site is explained.<\/p>\n

As a student using the wordpress site, you\u2019ll have the role of an editor (as opposed to an contributor, admin or subscriber). Editors can add posts and pages and upload images, sounds, add links, embed youtube and soundcloud links etc. You can\u2019t change themes or the fundamental structure of the site. This is for the site admins (your project supervisor) to do.<\/p>\n

Once you’ve been allocated to your group, please email your project supervisor your EASE username and they will then give you access to the blog for the project that you\u2019re working on.<\/p>\n

Using a wordpress site is easy, however, there are two significant distinctions to make about\u00a0posts<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0pages<\/em>. When you create a\u00a0page<\/strong>, this a permanent, static item that should not change much once published and will host specific useful information that people may frequently need. The page you are on now is a wordpress \u201cpage\u201d.\u00a0 For more information about pages, read this;\u00a0codex.wordpress.org\/Pages<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Posts<\/strong>\u00a0are different and belong inside \u201ccategories\u201d. You have freedom to add and delete categories, but every post you make should be categorised into at least one category, the category is the place where a post is kept and found.\u00a0 Categories<\/strong>\u00a0show\u00a0posts<\/strong>\u00a0as part of an ongoing collection of information that is usually presented with the most recent at the top of the list. The site is navigated via its static pages and by its categories but not by individual blog posts. Here is some more information about understanding posts;codex.wordpress.org\/Writing_Posts<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Each group\u2019s site will need at least two categories for submissions,\u00a0submission-1, submission-2<\/em><\/strong>. Posts\u00a0 placed inside these categories will be assessed after the submission date and must not be changed once you\u2019ve filed them there.<\/p>\n
