News

Description

This is a page where the administrator can post news messages for all users, in the form of a title and a description. The administrator has a word processor available for this, to format the text and to add images, links and files. There is also an option to comment on news items, which can be turned off.

Only administrators can create news items. This can be done under the menu 'News management'.

Example

Use the news module to pass on important events to the users of the MyPortfolio environment. It can be used for updates with a fixed interval or if something special has occurred.

Settings

Click on 'Add news' to create a message. Add a title and optionally a category, set the date and provide a short description or summary. This description / summary is shown to the users of the MyPortfolio environment on the news page. There is also the option to add a file (maximum 100MB). Once the message has been created, it can be activated or deactivated by selecting it on the right side of the screen. Here is also the option to edit or delete the message.

For non-administrators, the 'News' page is where the messages will appear. Click on 'Read this news item' to read the full message. In the screen that follows, all users of the environment can post comments. These messages cannot be edited or deleted.
