Add a news article with a photo

In this example we describe how to place a news article with a photo on the homepage.
If you already know how to add a photo you can start with step 4.

  1. Go to "Home" in "Admin". 
     
  2. Click on  "File Upload". 
    - Click on "Add Add new folder" to create a separate photo group for the photos you are going to add.
    - Give the photofolder a clear name.
    - Click on "Save"
     
  3. Click on "Add Upload file".
    - Select the picture folder (we added in step 2).
    - Click on "Browse" to select the photo on your hard disk.
    - Give the photo a name. 
    - Click on "Save".
     
  4. Go back to "Home" - "News" and click on "Add Add news article".
    Default the date is set to the current date.
    - If you want to change the date you can click on Kalender.
    - Give the news article a title.
    If you want to make a long news article you can divide it into an abstract and body section. The abstract section is entirely shown on the homepage. When you fill in text at "Body :" a "Read more link" is added below the introduction section on the homepage. By clicking on "Read more" the visitor can read the whole article.
    - Enter the abstract text.
    - Enter the body text. (this is not required)
    - Click in the text field where you want to place the photo. Click in the toolbar on the "Insert/Edit image" Afbeelding invoegen/wijzigen icon.
    By default the photos are stored in two formats, a large version and a thumbnail.
    Select the large version and click on the photo of your choice.
    - If you want, you can change the Alternative text. This is the text that appears when you hover with your mouse over the photo.
    - Click on "OK" to place the photo.
    - To make the news article directly visible on the webste you can tick "Published"
  5. To make the news article visible on the website you need to click on the publish button Publish. To make it invisible again you can
    click on Unpublish.
