Whenever there is a class assignment to be posted to the blog, make sure to either give your assignment a unique title or include your name in the post heading so it is easily identifiable to readers.

For example, “Beat Review” could be anyone’s. Even though your name does show up under the title, it is good practice to use unique identifiers to make things easier for your audience. //

When you create a post, be sure to assign it to the correct category so that it shows up in the category link sidebar for readers to find.

After you’ve previewed your post and are ready to publish, find the “categories” box to the right of the post box and check the right one. //
