Step 1

To start entering content, you need to log in using your username.  To do so, click on Log in along the right side of the website. (After entering your content, you can come back to this place and click on Log out.)

Step 2

Enter your Username and password.

Click on the Log in button.

Step 3

At the top of the page click on New.

Step 4

• Enter a TITLE for your post.
• Enter the CONTENT of your post.
• Click on the PUBLISH button

There are many options available for decorating what you have to say, but this is the bare minimum that you need to do. For example, you can categorise the post according to one or more of the existing categories, or you can create a new category if necessary.

You do not need to complete creating the post in one sitting. There are buttons on the top of the page to save a draft and to preview what you have done so far. You can come back to continue your editing later and you only need to publish it once you are satisfied with it. Until then it will not appear on the website.

(optional) More tools for your creativity

When adding a post, it need not consist just of a block of text. You can also insert other types of detail (called blocks). For example you can include a picture, an audio file, a video file, a PDF, or many many other types of “blocks”.

Click on the + symbol and then on one of the drop down arrows. Then click on one of the many kinds of blocks available.

To the right of the page are tabs that contain options for customising the document as a whole, or the block currently selected.

This website is also a blog. People who have been given permission to blog  (e.g. the portfolio leaders) can add content (called posts).   Adding content is not difficult at all and anyone with basic computer literacy skills can do so easily. (e.g. If you can type an email or edit a text document, you will be able to add content to the website.)

The general public can comment on what has been added and conversations and discussions can continue in this way.  Both the initial content added and the comments are monitored for unacceptable content.

To be able to add content, the following steps are needed.

Step 1

Ask Revd Karen to allow you to have a “username”. This will allow you to add content to the website. Alternatively, she might approach you to accept the responsibility of regularly adding news and information about your area of activity at St Augustine. She will ask the Website administrator to create a “username” for you. Your email address will be needed for this.

Step 2

You will receive an email from wordpress@staugustinebrixton.co.za.  The subject of the email will be [St Augustine Brixton] Your username and password info. The email will contain 2 links.  Click on the 1^st of them.

Step 3

You will be shown a weird looking password that was created automatically for your username  (as shown alongside). Replace it with a password of your own choosing.

After typing a new password click on the “Reset Password” button.

Step 4

Once the password has been changed, you will be asked to login. Click on the link provided.

Step 5

Your username will be displayed.  Make a note of this for future use. Enter the password you decided on a few steps ago.   Click on the Login button.
