Setup SharePoint Blogs Wikis and Announcements
In this article we will focus on three things -
1) How to setup SharePoint Blogs
2) How to setup SharePoint Wikis
3) How to setup SharePoint Announcements
How to setup SharePoint Blogs
Blogs (Web Logs) are similar to Wikis in that they allow users to add information, but unlike a Wiki, a Blog’s entries are dated and arranged in reverse chronological order (newest first). Under SharePoint, Blogs can contain any type of information including text, links, pictures, and other multimedia files.As with Wikis, SharePoint blogs are created using the Blog template in the New SharePoint Site window. To create a blog, follow these steps:
- Under Site Actions, click Create
- In the Web Pages list, click Sites and Workspaces
- Enter the title and description for the blog (remember these appear on each page, so useful descriptions should be employed). For the Web Site Address enter the address to be used for the blog.
- Under Template, click the Collaboration tab and select Blog:
- Under Permissions, set the Blog permission to their initial values
- Click Create
By default, users can add to blogs based on their SharePoint permissions, but you can overrule those permissions to allow only restricted access, or allow specific people to have edit capabilities. More commonly, you will want to have everyone on the system have access (and the ability to post to) your blogs, even if they do not have these permissions on the parent site. This is easy enough to accomplish by setting permissions for your Blog pages independently, instead of inheriting them from the parent.
The right side of the page allows users to add to the blog. Those with permissions can also edit and modify the blog.
To create categories for your blog, to allow subjects to be broken down more logically, follow these steps:
- Under Categories click the Add New Category link
- Enter the new category name and click OK
To delete a blog category, under the Category list click on the category name, then select Delete Item. The category will be removed.
How to setup SharePoint Announcements
Announcements are simply notices posted within SharePoint that are displayed and accessible for the whole team. Announcements appear on the home page by default, but can be placed anywhere in a site.Announcements are part of a list, and there are several list templates provided in SharePoint, as well as sample announcements. To create announcements in SharePoint, follow these steps
