Posts & articles

Posts are longer platform articles and updates. Guests can read public posts; members may also see members-only posts.

Browse posts#

  1. Open Posts in the main menu (or go to Posts).
  2. Use Search posts…, category pills, Popular Tags, or sort (Newest / Popular / Oldest) to narrow the list.
  3. Open an article title to read it.

Only published posts appear in the public list.

Write a post#

If your role can submit posts:

  1. Sign in, then open Posts → Write a Post (create).
  2. Enter a title, body, and optional excerpt and cover image.
  3. Choose a Category (required). Some categories need approval before the post goes live.
  4. Add Tags if offered.
  5. Set Visibility to Public or Members Only, and decide whether to Allow comments.
  6. Click Save Draft to keep working, or Publish / submit — you may see “Posts may require approval before publishing.”

Outcomes:

  • Published — the article is live (when your role can publish directly).
  • Submitted for review — the post waits in pending review until staff approve it.

My Posts#

  1. Open My Posts (also linked from the Posts area).
  2. Use tabs All, Published, Pending, Drafts, and Rejected.
  3. Open a row to Edit, or start a new one with Write New Post.

Statuses you may see#

Status Meaning
Draft Saved; not public. Use Submit for Review when ready.
Pending review With the review team. You may see a banner that it is awaiting the moderator committee.
Published Live on Posts.
Rejected Not published. Read the Reason shown, edit, and resubmit.
Archived Removed from the public list by staff.

While a post is pending, editing may be locked unless staff allow edits or your role includes editing your own pending posts.

Engage on a published post#

When signed in on a published article you can often:

  • Like or Save (bookmark)
  • Share
  • Submit Comment — comments are reviewed before they appear publicly

Guests may see a Leave a comment form (name and optional email) when comments are allowed.

Authors can moderate comments on their own posts from Pending Comments when a badge appears on My Posts.

Pre-publish review discussion#

If staff open a review thread on your article, look for Pre-publish review discussion on the post page. That conversation is for you and reviewers only — it is not the public comment section.
