Posting Mechanism

Question:

Last week for the teamwork post my group posted them as comments on our "Weekly post" page. For the A1 assignment we have to make a post and title it and when ever we try to make a post it always goes to our home page. How should we go about posting it?

Response:

Without looking at your blog I cannot be certain about this answer, but it sounds to me as though you're probably doing the correct thing. The idea behind a blog is that the latest post is always at the top of the list, with previous posts following on the page.  To see previous posts you can:

• Scroll down the main page - usually a limited number of posts will be scrollable
• Search the blog for key words
• Use the "labels" (sometimes called "tags") to click and see the posts with those labels
• Use the chronology to show those posts happening at a given time.

Note that you don't want to "comment" on a previous post, you want to create a new post each time.   You add comments only when you want the comment to stick with the post as a comment.

To get the URL of your specific post:

1. Display the post on your page - that's what happens usually when you "publish" your post or search for it
2. Click on the title of the post
1. That displays that post only, with the URL in the  "Location Bar"
3. Copy the URL from the location bar
