How To Submit Your Material

To submit your material on any section of LDS Archives, do the following:

1. At the top of the page, under the navigation bar, you see two links. One is to create your post ("Click here to submit"). The other link ("How?") takes you to the Help/FAQs page on how to create a new submission.
2. After using the "Click here to submit" link, a window will appear. This is where you type your material. If you want a template for the post (so you don't forget anything) then click on "Edit Html". You will then see text explaining where to type or paste your material.3. When you are finished, click on the "Compose" tab. The template text will disappear and only show your material. Make any additional changes you desire. Finally, click "Publish Post".4. Important: Even before beginning a new post, look at the "Topic Links" on the left side of the webpage. See if any already listed fall into the category or topic that your submission is. If not you can create a new one, but use pre-existing post labels if possible. For example, I looked to see if my "Learning to Share" talk would fall under any labels already made. I saw on "Topic Links" one that said Sharing. I'll use that as my post label.

Note: On the image below the label "Honesty" has the number two in parentheses. This indicates that two separate posts have the same label of "Honesty". At the bottom of the post window there is a text field labeled "Labels for this post". This is how we categorize the submissions to LDS Archives. Think of your submission as a whole--what is the main topic or idea. Narrow it down to one to three words and type it in that field.

For example, in this submission the Church Talk was titled "Learning to Share". So, the label would appropriately be "Sharing", which I typed into the label field. You can have up to two topics or main ideas. Separate them by a comma.5. Click on "View Blog" to return to the LDS Archives website. That's all!
