To add a news item which will be displayed automatically under News, do the following:

Alternative 1

  1. Go to News in the left-hand navigation pane
  2. Select Create_news_item
  3. Fill in the correct data after the newsdate tag [[newsdate::YYYY-MM-YY]]. This tag is essential for the news list to work as expected.
  4. After editing, save the page. It may take some time for the news list to be updated. To enforce updating, you can use the Purge command: http://heureka.resgeom.slu.se/wiki/index.php?title=Heureka_MediaWiki&action=purge


Alternative 2 (if alt 1 doesn't work)

  1. Create the page. The page name will be the news heading.
  2. Add the following code
[[newsdate::YYYY-MM-YY]]. 
Your text...
[[Category:News]]

After that, same as in 3 and 4 above.
