Hello and thanks for being a part of iPhone App Index!

This page will help get you started with using the basic functions of Wordpress to post info about your iPhone apps.

Be sure to also

get on my blogroll

and there's also a forum in case you have something to share with the other developers posting on this site.

I also recommend reading the FAQ page for a better understanding of what my "Do and Don't" list encompasses.

As always, you're welcome to contact me if you need something.

After you log in:

Create a new post | "Continue Reading" link | Categorize and tag | Upload images | Create an image gallery | Add video

 

Login

To log in, click on the Log In link at the bottom of the sidebar on the right of the screen.

It's pretty far down there but if you have browser cookies enabled you shouldn't need to go down there too often.

Create a New Post

In the Wordpress dashboard, click on New Post > Add New to start a new post.

 

Insert a "Continue Reading" link

Please insert a "Continue Reading" link no more than two paragraphs into your post. Here's how you do it:

 

 

 

Categorize and Tag Your Post

I would recommend doing this first because it's easy to forget!

 

The instructions below are based on a slightly older version of Wordpress, but it's all pretty much the same.


Upload an Image (or a bunch of images!)



 

 

Create an Image Gallery

If you've uploaded more than one image for your post, please create an image gallery. Don't worry, it's really easy!




(ignore that last bit about “price image”, I’m borrowing these pics from my iPhone App Reviews site)

 

 

Embed a YouTube Video

Unfortunately the "add video" button in Wordpress just creates a link to your video. In order to make your video appear and play within your post you need to copy the "embed" code from YouTube or wherever your video lives and put that code in the HTML section of the Wordpress editor.
