Adding and Editing News Items

Learning how to add and edit news items.
News items are commonly used in Web sites to display news that's of interest to the reader.

Actually, a news item contains the same information as a document. The only real difference is that a news item will show up when a visitor clicks the news tab (once the item is published).


 If I wanted to write a Web page that was going to be relevant for a long period of time, such as directions to my company's office, I'd use a document. If I wanted a page that detailed my exciting new product and drew attention to it, I'd use a news item. That news item would be visible under the news tab, and as new things happened, it'd slowly move down the page.
