GettingStarted

From Blog Support

A very quick introduction to blogging at Weblogs at Harvard Law:

1. Go to the front page, fill in the 'Create a Blog' form and click on the 'Create my Blog' button.
2. Wait for an email from the server with the password for your blog.
3. Click on the login link in the email and login with the username and password in the email to go to the admin page for your blog.
4. Click on Write. Enter a title and some content for a post. Click on Publish.
5. Click on 'View Site' to view your new blog and post.

You are now officially a blogger. Repeat the last two steps to continue adding new content to your blog.

Next, you will probably want to experiment with the following from the admin page (step 3 above):

• Choose a new look and feel for your blog by going to Presentation -> Themes.
• Add a page accessible from the top right hand menu by going to Write -> Page.
• Manage existing posts and pages by clicking on the 'edit' link beneath each one or by going to Manage -> Posts or Manage -> Pages.
• Add one or more list of links to your blog (eg. Blogs I Read) by going to Manage -> Links.
• Organize your posts into categories by going to Manage -> Categories.
