We have established the following guidelines to assist you in writing for us:
The Editor
- Once you are logged in, you can go to the built in editor that will allow you to write or paste your article directly in the website.
- The editor has two main tabs… “Visual” and “Code”.
- If you click on the Visual tab, this puts the editor in WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) mode. What this means is that however your content looks to you in this mode, that’s what you will see when the article is published.
- This is a good way to start out, if you’re typing from scratch or pasting content from a Word or Notepad document.
- If you have written your article via an HTML editor, such as Dreamweaver, and you intend to paste your article complete with HTML code, then you would NOT paste it in the Visual mode. Instead, click on the “Code” tab to switch to Code mode.
- If you click on the Visual tab, this puts the editor in WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) mode. What this means is that however your content looks to you in this mode, that’s what you will see when the article is published.
