Revision as of 12:29, 18 April 2011

This page describes the processes for Marketing team members to do the following tasks in Insight:

  • Promote specific blog posts to the feed on Insight
  • Publish Marketing stories to the feed on Insight

Access and Logging in

Anyone can view the Insight page by going to http://insight.fedoraproject.org. Having access to create content and/or post content to Fedora Insight requires permission.

Authentication is done via [[Infrastructure/AccountSystem FAS (Fedora Account System)]. In addition to having a Fedora account, you need to be a member of one of the following FAS groups:

  • cmsadmin
  • cmseditors

You may apply to these groups for access using the Fedora Accounts System application. However, someone will need to approve your access. Because of the nature of the site, only trusted contributors will be approved. If you are interested in becoming part of the group that maintains Fedora Insight, joining the [Marketing] team is recommended. Follow the Marketing team [Joining_the_Fedora_marketing_project | Join] process, including sending an email to the Marketing list, and include the information that you are interested in helping to maintain insight. If you are already a member of the Marketing team, sending a mail to the Marketing list about your interest will work as well.

To log in:

  • Go to http://insight.fedoraproject.org
  • Click the "log in" link just below the words "Fedora Insight"
    • Log in using the same credentials (ie: login/password) that you normally use for Fedora infrastructure

Once logged in, your "view" of the front page of insight should change slightly. In the lower right hand corner, there should be a list of actions to click on, underneath your login ID. These include Import, Moderation Queue, My Account, Create Content, Administer, and Log Out.

The Moderation Queue and Create Content actions are the primary focus of this SOP.

Promoting planet posts via Moderation Queue

Blog posts that one sees on http://planet.fedoraproject.org can be accessed via RSS feed for use on Fedora Insight. These posts can be made to appear in the Fedora Planet Highlights section of Fedora Insight.

Purpose and Guidelines

The purpose of this section is to promote Fedora-centric blog posts which may be news- or press-worthy. There are (currently) no hard and fast guidelines about what content should or should not be promoted; however, we should keep this section as fresh and up-to-date as we can.

How-to

After logging into Insight, click the Moderation Queue link, found under your username in the lower right-hand corner of Fedora Insight. A list of recent blog posts should appear with checkboxes next to them.

  • Select the blog post(s) that follow the guidelines that you wish to have promoted on Insight. Selections can be completed one-by-one, or in bulk.
  • After making your selection, use the drop-down box above the list of posts that is labelled "Choose an operation." The following selections can be made (among others, but these are the important ones):
