I have a piece ready that I'd like to publish, but I'm not sure about the next step. Is it as simple as adding a new post via my dashboard or is there a more rigorous editing process that I need to pursue?

This is a niche piece that is written in a format familiar to lawyers, but it's still accessible to everyone. It's heavily sourced, which I hope will be appreciated.

Thanks!

    @adam As I mentioned, our system is custom and still under construction so it's a bit quirky, here's a rundown of how each element works

    Post Title - This is the name of the article

    URL - Do not mess with this, it auto-populates based on the post title

    Author - Unless you run a blog, this will always be your name, or the name of the primary author if you are editing a piece.

    Post Status

    Three options

    Draft - Work in progress

    Ready for Publication - Locks you from further changes, flags an editor - The editor can throw it back into draft, and soon you'll be able to request it go back to draft.

    Published - If the Publish Date/Time has already passed, that means it is live on the front page. If the publish date/time has not yet occurred Featured - This is a checkbox you might not be able to see, it means your Featured Image is used instead which takes up 2 boxes worth of space on the front page. This is rarely used and is really just the start of our user curation system.

    Publish Date/Time The date/time it will show as published. Can be forward-dated or back dated. Please set your time as you see fit, eventually there will be a "Slot" availability system that shows you where the publication vacancies are but that's a bit out :)

    Featured Image (600x372) - Used if your article is featured. NOT REQUIRED

    Cover Image (400x400) - Used if your article is published, REQUIRED FOR ALL POSTS

    Excerpt - This is the first text box - it is NOT USED IN OUR CURRENT DESIGN - people often mistake this for where they should put their article, and it's wrong.

    Content - This is the second text box, it is where you should compose and format your article

    Categories - Pick one or two, tags are coming later.

    Bitcoin Tipping Address - If you already have one in your profile this will autopopulate.

    Soundcloud Track ID - If you have an audio report or podcast, you put in the "Track ID" which is a number you get from looking at the soundcloud embed code (click the share button on the desired track, then embed) - It will look something like 150028193, paste that into the Soundcloud Track ID field.

    Audio URL (overrides soundcloud url) - If you do not use Soundcloud

    Audio Byte Length (leave this - it autopopulates if you do not use soundcloud)
