If you would like to create a blog post, but arn’t sure how to do it, this is the place to look.

If you haven’t got a login then Sid should have sent you all my email address, send me an email and I’ll set you a login up and send you a password.

Once you have this if you go to this URL:

http://blog.smfc.co.uk/wp-login.php

Enter your username and password and login:

This will take you to this screen where you can move your mouse over ‘New’ at the top of the screen and select ‘Post’ from the list that drops down

This will then take you to this screen where you can put a title in and start typing your blog post:

 

If you want to insert a picture, put the cursor where you would like to insert the image and click the ‘Add Media’ button. This will take you to the add media screen, if you select ‘uploaded to this post’ from the drop down list then you will only see the images you have uploaded

 

Now to upload an image simply find it on your computer and drag it to this box

 

And click Insert Image at the bottom of the screen

If you want to insert a You Tube video then you can just paste the URL that is in the address bar when you watch the video, for example:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-OO96nmn7ec&feature=youtu.be

if you just paste it will show up as:

You can then use the save draft to save it as a draft, or when you are ready click ‘Publish’ to make it available to the world to see.

Good Luck

Have Fun and I look forward to reading everyone’s exploits.

If you find anything else that should be in this post let me know and I will update it.
