TITLE
Reverse Publishing Workflow for WordPress
DESCRIPTION
More than a WordPress plugin, this “wizard” style systems guides the user through the processes of reverse publishing. Web-first has been a motto in the newsroom for years, but few have actually achieved it. This technology will allow the newspaper to use WordPress as their main CMS and publish to the web in real time, providing a simple way to edit, assign and move stories from the web to the print edition.
Step 1, WRITE – Writers or first line editors select stories to be edited, and assign them to the appropriate category.
Step 2, EDIT – Editors make corrections and assign stories a page number.
Step 3, PRODUCTION – Pagination staff monitor this page for copy that is “ready to place.” Content that is ready shows green. Placed content is identified in black, and red signifies that copy has been previously downloaded, but a copy change has occurred. Text/XML can be downloaded by individual story, grouped by page or entire section.
Step 4, WEB – Online editors browse content categories and select specific content to showcase on the home page or section fronts.
