1. Readers (anyone) who can read all published posts and make comments on any post.

4. Add a label to the post by clicking "labels" on the right side of the post. This becomes a link that will allow readers to find the post. When you place a comma in the label field a second label is started.
5. When finished click "Publish" on the menu bar.
Editing a post:
1. If you are authorized to edit a post, you will see a "pencil icon" at the bottom of the post. Click that icon.
2. Change the title, body, label or "published on" date, as needed.
3. When finished, click "Update" on the menu bar.
Deleting a post:
Only administrators can delete a post.
Importing pictures into a post.
1. Place the cursor in the body of the post you are creating or changing and click the icon that looks like a picture on the menu bar. The Pictures will import where you placed the cursor.
2. A new screen appears which will allow you to browse and select one or more pictures to upload.
3. The uploaded pictures can be re-sized or right, left or center justified by clicking on the uploaded picture (center and X-Large usually works well)
Managing post labels and publication dates.
1. Each post must have a label. Labels appear on the right side of the website in alphabetic order so that the reader can locate the post.
2. If two or more posts have the same label (Example, Board Meetings-Older) they are shown as one label on the reading list. When the reader clicks that label all posts with this label appear to the reader (newest publication date first).
3. This website shows posts in order of publication date. The home page publication date may need to be changed frequently so that it always has the newest publication date of any post.
Embedding Google documents (Google Doc or Google Sheet).
1. This method of creating posts has the advantage that any subsequent changes to the document on the author's Google Drive flow automatically to the tennis website. The disadvantages are additional complexity for the author and the inability of administrators to edit the post content.
2. Once a google doc is embedded in a post, the embedded HTML code will need to be edited for height and width.
3. The ladder spread sheet is an example of a Google Doc that should be embedded.
Adding a new author or administrator.
1.This skill should be mastered by each website administrator.
2 Administrators and authors will be authorized by the Club President.
