Each story has custom fields available for you to fill in as needed. Not all of these features will show up on the homepage, but they will show up on a story’s page. While the descriptions for each custom field make its purpose obvious, read below for more information.
Writer: Be sure to add a writer for each story — this is what will connect the story to a writer’s profile on the staff page. You must spell the writer’s name exactly the same as when you set up the writer’s staff profile. Use the Add Another Writer button to add another writer.
Job Title: You can add something like “Staff Writer” or “News Editor” in this box. Note: This field is only available when there is a single writer for a story. It is not possible to add job titles to stories with multiple writers.
Featured Image Location: This choice determines where the photo is displayed on the story’s main page. It does not affect its placement on the homepage or other pages. Do not choose Slideshow of All Attached Images unless you have attached many images to the story.
Video/Embed Code: Paste the embed code from any audio or video on any site.
Video Credit: This will create a credit line just below the video on the story page — this will also connect the video to profiles on the staff page. Use the Add Another Credit Line button to add more than one credit.
Video Location: This choice determines where the video is displayed on the story’s main page. It does not affect its placement on the homepage or other pages.
Sports Add-On: Attach to Sport Page: This only works if the Site Booster Add-On package has been installed on your site. This allows you to have a story show up on the individual pages in the Scores and Schedules page.
