How to add content to the OGA News and Events feeds

The OGA News and Events pages consist of a Noticeboard Widget positioned on the News and Events pages and the individual articles you create within the red News and Events menus.

 

Once you have created a news article and you are ready to go live, all you need to do is add your article to the relevant noticeboard. The news articles are then presented as a vertical news feed.

 

Finally, you manage the news feeds in the Noticeboard Admin area where you can editmove or delete the individual noticeboard articles.
