Please note that a WYSIWYG text box will only function in HTML mode on Windows, and only for Internet Explorer version 5.5+. All other browsers will use a regular text box to enter and edit information.

As you enter text, pressing <enter> starts a new paragraph, which leaves a blank line. For single line breaks, press <shift> + <enter>.

To enter HTML directly into the WYSIWYG text box, select the HTML button "<>", paste the HTML and select the HTML button again to view the results. The text/html is in the content text box, can also by previewed by clicking the "Preview without publishing" button. This will open a new window with the full article publish preview results.

After you click "Save" from the upload page, you'll be sent to the "Manage Images" page, where you'll be able to see your images and enter in captions for them. This screen also allows you to erase images which you no longer require. After you've saved your changes, you'll be returned to editing the article. Note that any images you've uploaded will now be listed on this page under "Uploaded Images".

To erase images or modify captions that you've already uploaded, click the "Manage Images" button on the article edit page below the list of uploaded images.

Please note that images do not automatically get published in your articles. To publish your images, please read the next section on Image Placeholders.

Image Placeholders
You can place uploaded images in your articles by inserting special placeholders into the Content, Summary, or spare fields. Listed on the edit article page are all of the images which have been uploaded for an article, as well as a sample placeholder for each.

To place an image in your article, cut-and-paste the placeholder for your image into the Content, Summary, or a spare field. Article Manager will insert your images and respective captions wherever your placeholders appear. To make the procedure even easier, you can click the "Preview" button to get a look at what the page will look like when published.

Additionally, you can control how your images are aligned by inserting slightly more advanced image placeholders. Listed below are the different modifiers:

***image1*** insert image with default alignment
***image1:left*** insert image left aligned
***image1:center*** insert image center aligned
***image1:right*** insert image right aligned
***image1:url*** insert image URL

The "default alignment" is right aligned, however, this setting may be changed by your administrator in the config.ini file.

The last modifier ":url" does not insert an image into your article. Instead, it inserts an url to the image. This placeholder is intended for use in HTML. Please see the Tips and Tricks section for an example of how to use this.

Article Types
Sometimes, you'll want an article to link somewhere other than a detail page. By setting the Article Type field within an article, you can change where the article will link.

This field may or may not be available, depending on the how your administrator has set up Article Manager.

Browsing Articles
If you've been given access to list articles, you'll see a button in the gray navigation bar labelled "Article Editor". From the Article Editor, you can modify and erase articles.

When browsing through articles, you can use the Keyword Search function to narrow down the number of entries to search through. You may also elect to only display articles from a specific Category, or with a specific Status. Article Manager remembers your last search settings for a while if you leave the page and return, and it may be confusing at first to only see one or two records. To show all of your records again, use the "List All" button, which resets the Keyword Search.

To find out what type of user you're logged in as, look at the lower grey bar in Article Manager's interface. It will look something like this:
Current User: john (Writer)

Writer
A Writer is able to submit articles to some categories, but is not able to make them appear on the website. Also, once a Writer has submitted an article, it cannot be modified by anyone other than an Editor.

Trusted Writer
A Trusted Writer is able to create articles in some categories, and can make them visible on the website. Also, this user may see a list of any articles that they've created. Any of these articles may be modified or erased.

Editor
An Editor has full control over some of the categories on the site. This user may modify and delete any articles in these categories. An Editor may also view articles that have been submitted by Writers, these articles will have a status of "pending". By modifying these articles and changing the status to "visible", the Editor can approve these articles and make them display on the website.

Tips and Tricks
Often, there are ways of doing things with a program which are not immediately apparent, and sometimes, you're able to use a program to do things that the program wasn't originally designed for. This section is presented to illustrate some ways you can use Article Manager to achieve different effects.

Thumbnailing
Having a smaller image link to a larger image is known as thumbnailing. You can link an image to another image by taking advantage of Image Placeholders from within an Article's Content or Summary field. Use the :url modifier of image placeholders to insert the full url to the uploaded image:

<a href="***image2:url***" target="blank"><img src="***image1:url***"></a>

This would treat image 1 as a thumbnail, linking it to image 2, the larger image.
