How to Make a Post
For newer people or first time posters, you must first request that an admin make you an “Author” on the blog so that you can create a post. Once that is confirmed, follow these steps.
Here are the brief instructions on how to post:
Posts automatically close 3 days after they open.
You can close posts early by editing the post, then “unchecking†the boxes for allowing comments and pings.
To “schedule†a post to open automatically at a specific time, you set the time on the upper right of the new post to the time you want to post using a 24 hour clock (so if you want 1 pm, it’s 1300).
