Blogging
Last updated Nov 16
Logging in
You can log into your blog from this site http://thepokerbus.com/wp-login.php. The password is completely secure and cannot be viewed by me or anybody.
Posting
Once you’re logged in just click on the ‘write’ tab. Fill out anything you want for the title and then start writing your blog entry under ‘post’. I recommend writing your post in word or notepad first and then copy and pasting it into the post form just incase anything goes wrong. When making a new paragraph you should hit enter (return) twice so there is a full row between paragraphs. You don’t need to put anything next to Excerpt.
Editing
You can always edit your entry after you post it if you see something you need to change. Just go to the manage tab and click edit next to the post you want to edit.
Avatars
You can choose whether or not to use an avatar when posting. If you want to use an avatar email me an image. I’ll put it into a pokerstars ring, upload it, and give you the script to include.
Using avatars
The blogging software I use doesn’t support avatars so you need to put them in manually. Just include this easy code before each post:
<img src="/avatars/your_avatars_name.gif" class="left" />
Here’s an example.

Profiles
Users profiles will be shown on individual posts. You can fill something in when managing your account. It shouldn’t be any longer then a paragraph.
Promoting your blog
After you make your first post a link to your blog posts will be made that looks like this: http://thepokerbus.com/yourname. You can add this to your forum post signatures, profiles, or share it with people you know if you’d like to promote your blog.
