  Edit the article in the following ways:

  • add the company logo, no more than 50 pixels tall, to the small image field, and select "logo upgrade".
  • Save the article, and from the article menu, select the article to be "featured".

2. In the module menu, duplicate a BG-cats listing module, and save as copy.  Then alter the following fields:

  • Title of module - replace with the category name that is being sponsored.
  • Title in menu body - replace with the category name that is being sponsored.
  • Update the image with the new advertisers logo, and update the link
  • deselect the category for the module you copied, and select the new category (will match title)
  • Double Check your work, and publish the new module.

3. In the menu interface, go to the menu item in the buyers guide for the section you just made cahnges to, and edit that item.  On the right side, in Page Display Options, deselect "show page heading" and save and close the file.

JCE Editor is the tool we will use to add articles into the Allied Websites.  The icons and tools will hopefully be similar enough to other word processing programs to be easy to use.

Starting with first row, left to right:

Screen shot 2012-08-17 at 4.26.33 PM

Print | Preview | Toggle Fullscreen Mode | Cut | Copy | Paste | Undo | Redo | Find | Find/Replace | Table Tools

Tips and Tricks:

Paste:  There are two ways to paste information into your article.  The first is to use the right click (or keyboard shortcut) for copy and paste.  The second is to use the Clipboard icon above.  You can copy documents from Word, and even small tables from Excel using the copy and paste.


The Second row of icons is the following:
 jce-documentation

Text Styles | Text Alignment | Text Indent | Lists | Spellcheck | Read More/Page Break | Show Formatting | Blockquote/Special Characters | Remove Formatting | Horizontal Rule

Tips and Tricks:

Spellcheck: Click the spellcheck button and the misspelled words will be underlined.  Do a regular click on the word for spelling suggestions.

 The Text Styles drop down box (that says Paragraph) will lets you quickly set your headlines, sub-headers, and even addresses.

Heading 1

Heading 2

Address

 

The Third row of icons is the following:

JCE-documentation2

Text Formattting Tools | Text Color Tools | Code View | Add a Web Link/Remove a Link/Add an Archor | Add an Image/Link to a file/Link to Media | Templates | Auto save

Tips and Tricks:

Autosave: Autosave is enabled for articles.  If you have lost part of your data, clicking on the little timer icon can be a big help getting it back.

Want to go to the next line without starting a new paragraph?  Hold the Shift key, and press enter/return.
