| Adding New Articles |
You can submit an article in two ways:
Choosing to "Submit Article" from the Articles top menu is the first choice that is made when entering a new article on the Articles section. Other way is first selecting a category then a subcategory where the article wanted to be located and click on the "Add an Article" link towards the bottom.
Selecting in either way it will open a submit form for you to fill out. Fill in the provided form. The first selection that can be made on the page is to select a proper category for the article that will be submitted. Although you will see the category name here if you firstly selected the subcategory then submit. If you did not see a category that fit your article's description, contact with the admins of the site and they'll be happy to add it for you :)
Then you have to complete the "Title", "Content", "Summary" and "Your Email" areas those required. You can also use Forum Codes and Smilies when writing the content. You can go on with the other fields as needed but they are not the required ones.
Once you have filled out all of the items for your article, click on the "Submit" button to submit your article to the site administrators. You can use "Reset" button to clear the form. If the site is configured to require approval for new articles then you will receive a message that your article submission will be reviewed by the administrator and if approved will then appear on the Articles section. Until the article is approved it will not show up on the Articles. If the article is not approved by the Administrator the article will be deleted and not show up on the Articles, although you will receive an email to let you know whether or not your article has been approved. If the site is configured to accept the requests online then a summary page about your article will be shown and added to the Articles database immediately.
