Posting a Shared News Item

To post a news item pushed to you from another Center or COSEE.net, click on the link for List All News Items located under NEWS on the Admin page to open the List News Item page.

The bottom of the List News Item page contains a box for shared news items, shown in the image at top right for COSEE.net. (Click here to see a full size image of a List Item page; this page on COSEE.net is too long to post here.)

Three Centers have shared news items with COSEE.net; two are pending and one is active. Only the active item is currently visible on the COSEE.net website. In this tutorial, we'll post (publish) the pending item from COSEE-OS.

To post a shared item, click on the news item title to open the Show News item page (see middle image at right). Click on the orange link for Publish News Item to This Site at the top of the page. You can also remove an item, add an item, or list all items from this page. If you remove a shared item, you cannot get it back.

The status for this news item now reads Active (see image at bottom right).

Click here to see this news item on the COSEE.net website. The MORE link opens the full text description, this time on the COSEE.net website. If the item linked to an external URL, the MORE button would take you to that website.

Shared items can be edited only by the originating Center, and if deleted by them, will disappear from your site.
