 Issue #1: Creating a Newsletter.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

The new version of Drupal has a functioning Newsletter tool. Following are the steps for creating a newsletter

To create a new Newsletter,
Under your name, choose "My Workspace"
You will then have a page which has at the top, "Add content"
plus a Dropdown menu:  with a list of choices available to you

Choose "Newsletter Issue"
click "add new item"
----

You will then be taken to a new page titled, "Submit Newsletter  Issue".

1. Give it a Title.

2. Select which type of page format it will use (generally, use "practitioner")

3. Select the Newsletter Type (generally "IFF Updates")

In the Body,

Enter your text.

Note: Users will receive a simple text version, so be careful!

Remember to add that the respondents will need to login to read your newsletter, and you can provide them a convenient link for logging in by using the %http://feldenkrais-method.org/he/user/login

(to go to the site to read this or other Newsletters, please click to log in: http://feldenkrais-method.org/he/user/login )

4. Select where the Newsletter will appear on the website using the drop-down options in Menu Settings.

- Select a title (keep it under 24 characters)
- Select a location (all  IFF Updates go in one location)

5. Finally, select who will receive the Newsletter (that will be in the next Newsletter)

Thanks,
