In order to add or update content on a WordPress website, you must have Administrator, Editor, Author or Contributor privileges.

Background:

Content can be added to a WordPress website in one of two formats: as a Page or as a Post.

• A page is for content that is not time-dependent eg. ‘About’ or ‘Contact’ pages
• A post is for content that is time-relevant and is typically displayed in reverse-chronological order. Posts can have comments and an associated RSS feed. Examples of ‘post’-appropriate content would be ‘News’ or ‘Events’.

Both Pages and Posts have associated titles and content and the Look and Feel of the website will not change between the two.

Before you start in WordPress, assess your content

Decide if your current content needs editing or if you need to add new content to your site.

How to edit current content:

• Log into your WordPress website

   

• If you are editing a Post:
  • Click on Post > All Posts 
    • Find the Post you would like to edit and either click on the title or ‘Edit’ (which appears when the title is hovered over with a mouse) 
      • Make the changes you desire
      • Then click "Update" to save and publish the changes.

• If you are editing a Page:
  • Click on Pages > All Pages 
  • Select the Page you would like to edit and either click on the title or ‘Edit’ (which appears when the title is hovered over with a mouse) 
  • Make the changes you desire
  • Then click "Update" to save and publish the changes.
