Shall I add the blog to the homepage now?

have a look [url=

I have not figured out (yet) how to change the way headlines without text should look.

How many items should be shown with content? I currently am showing 3 in the testpage. Is that, or should it be increased? reduced?

My blog is totally corrected now!

High Five!

I cannot seem to fit hajj into one of the current categories...

are there any other categories that are needed?

Every time I edit my stupid blog thing it kills the page break!!!

I've put it in like 9 times now and it goes away the minute I press save!!!

Too vague.

Media stuff can be broken down to something else.

All the news will be 'media stuff', so same as uncategorised

"For too long, we have been a passively tolerant society, saying to our citizens 'as long as you obey the law, we will leave you alone'" - David Cameron, UK Prime Minister. 13 May 2015.

Okay how about just "stuff" then?

I have added the newsblog to the homepage now...

Stuff is also too general. Same as uncategorised.

Maybe Lyfestyle? religion?

"Everything you never wanted to know about Dave"

news...

"For too long, we have been a passively tolerant society, saying to our citizens 'as long as you obey the law, we will leave you alone'" - David Cameron, UK Prime Minister. 13 May 2015.

"Important recent developments you probably didn't want to know about Dave"

THE STUPID BLOG DID IT AGAIN!!!

Am I missing something!?

Is putting in a page break not as simple as pressing the little page break button after that second paragraph?!

It is that simple.

Click where you want the break. Preferably at end of paragraph. Click page break button.

I have put it back in.

[edit]

And do not call it stupid.

I have found it to be most elegant atm...

I've recently changed my mind.

High Five!

I have [url= some background info/guidelines/etc[/url] for the Newsblog.

Is there anything else that is needed?

I would like to expand the 'what is it?' bit

Blogs?

About blogs.

It is a most spectacular program.

Despite the fact the page break function is at war with me.

[size=9]I NEVER WORE IT BECAUSE OF THE TALIBAN, MOTHER. I LIKE THE [b]MODESTY[/b] AND [b]PROTECTION[/b] IT AFFORDS ME FROM THE EYES OF MEN.[/size] [url=, X-Men[/url]

That was me.

I did the same for MS's post.

I would have done it for Dave.

But just a CNN logo wasn't worth it.

I think I have simplified the 'dashboard'.

Is there anything specifiv that I could simplify?

(I have hardly touched anyone's posts... although I edited Dave's to add links etc...)

One other thing. Ed is saying the newsblog is showing too many items for his liking on the homepage. How many should it show in your opinions?

ah, i see what he means (just checked). there are 3 of the latest posts and the rest are just headings - i think it would be fine if u only showed the single latest post, and the rest as headings.

How about you get rid of 'Introducing The Revival NewsBlog' and have two of the latest stories?

I have kept just the heading there aswell, as that will motivate me to finish some things I need to do.

I will probably show two titles there.

and I will keep the introducing... for a few days yet...

and then after that I am gonna see if I can get a banner that looks like the announcements banner at the bottom (funnily enough without any announcements underneath it!)

nah for the time being, let it take up that space on the homepage, and Irf i think we should leave the 'Introducing...' title for atleast a week yet - we need to publicise this newsblog so that ppl are actually made aware of it and possibly even use it... Smile
