Prepping Content Submission Posts for Publishing

After content has been submitted, posts will be automatically created for the various new content submissions.  Some may need some editing before publishing them.

• Videos, Protocols, and P&F Projects should be good to go as is. They don't have their own 'pages' but rather, they appear in grids and/or tables in other places on the site.  The important thing is that the details are entered correctly and they are assigned the correct post type.  Once the 'posts' are published, you can verify them:
  • https://cceh.io/video-directory/
  • https://cceh.io/funding/
  • https://cceh.io/funding/pf-projects/
  • https://cceh.io/core/shared-resources-and-protocols/ 
  • Protocols should also appear on their parent center's page

Videos should have their URLS defined under the 'Page Links To' box and should be set to to open in a new tab.

 

• Job Postings and Featured Publications should mostly be good to go as well.  If the WPBakery templates aren't automatically applied, they can be applied in the WPBakery backend page builder editor.  The templates for these types are called 'Job Posting Page' and 'Featured Publication Page'.

   

  

   
  • For featured publications, the graphical abstract image should also be assigned as the post's Featured image. The image will have been uploaded to the site's media so you can simply click 'Set featured image' and find the matching image.
  • After updating the featured image, you will have to select 'Hide featured image on post page'.  You will also want to need the sidebar for the post.  Unfortunately, you have to switch the post type back to 'Post' in order to get these options.
  • You can change the post type from the publish box. 

    

  • Change the post type to 'Post' and either 'Save as Pending' or 'Publish' to save it.  Then you can toggle the hide featured image flag:

    

  • And you can hide the sidebar: 

    

  • Finally, change the post type back to 'Featured Publication'.
  • Then you can check the post and see how it looks, if it looks as expected, it can be 'Published'. At that point you should see it in the publications grid.
• News Items and Events can just be styled in whatever way looks good with the exception being a seminar series talk.  Those should be given the template 'CCEH Seminar Event Page'.  
• For seminar talks that have already been given,
  • Update the template to 'CCEH PAST Seminar Event Page' (delete all the page content beforehand and replace it all with the new template), 
  • Update the post type to 'Post',
  • Make sure the seminar series is selected for the post category,
  • Update the Meeting URL to the YouTube recording link
