Presenters should login to the TTIX 2008 blog in order to upload any shared presentation files, edit the posted abstract or bios for their presentation, and add tags/keywords to their session information. We’ve tagged sessions already with our best assessment of keywords, but presenter input is likely to be more accurate.

An online walk-thru of the upload and editing process is now available with step-by-step instructions.

In choosing to use WordPress as our blogging platform for TTIX we gained the ability to allow presenters to quickly and easily upload their files and even edit their conference session abstracts and personal bios. Here’s a quick walk-through:

1. Login to ttix.org’s blog (http://ttix.org/blog)

   

2. All presenters should have received a username and password via e-mail. E-mail steinja at uvsc dot edu with requests for new accounts or resets.

   

3. Once you are logged in, click Manage to access your presentation Page

4. 

5. Choose Pages

6. 

7. Find and select your presentation (no other presentation pages are editable)

   

8. To upload media, such as PowerPoints or presentation files, click the Add Media icon

   

9. You may Choose files to upload or you may link to files on your Web site before you Insert into Post

   

10. Be sure to add relevant tags to your presentation page–this helps participants find your session by keywords. You may want to edit your presentation abstract.

11. When you are done, click Save to save your changes.

    

All presenters may also contribute to the TTIX 2008 blog by making new posts during the conference itself. (Please refrain from posting new blog entries before the conference begins, however!)
