5.2 How to Write and Post Web Articles - 7 Create a new article with the Joomla Article Manager.

#7 Post the Text Only version of your Article with the Joomla Article Manager
Create a New Article with the Joomla Article Manager & use JCE to Copy Paste the Text Only Article… Once your welcome images are loaded into the Media Manager, click on Content, Articles, New (or plus sign). This will take you to the Add New Article page. Give your new article a title such as Welcome to our Website!. For most articles, we will assign them to a category. But for the article we will set it as a Featured Article so it will display on our Home page.

Save the Text Only Version of your Article.
After the text is in, but before adding images, it is a good idea to click SAVE. This is because only a limited about of information can be transmitted to the server with any given request. Now that we have posted the text only version of our article into the Article Manager, it is time to insert the images back in.
