Instruction for municipalities The website of WE CAN Young is made in the content management system (CMS) Drupal. Subscribe as changemaker on. Movisie can make you administrator. Log in to the site with your username and password. You can reach your own page via the menu button 'Municipalities' (Gemeenten) or go to /bes. Or go to "My Profile", you will see the town in which you are administrator on the right. What is the purpose? Consider the website as a "home base", this shows you what your WE CAN Young municipality does. Do you have actions in the planning? Place them in activities. Make images and videos as much as possible during your activities, place the finest materials in the gallery. Make short reports of your actions and place it as news. Link from there to your images or videos. Other news you can place is for example when a celebrity within your municipality becomes changemaker, when an action was published in the newspaper, if your municipality has recruited a large number of changemakers, you name it! You can all do this by yourself. How to do it, read this instruction. As "municipality" you can add activities, photos, videos and news sites. You can also change the text in the blocks on the front page of your municipality. Blocks at home - Click 'Edit' (bewerken), you will see the text fields of the three blocks below the other. If you want you can give each block a header, like 'Do it!', 'Sign also on' or 'What is this? To make the headlines you can change them in Format (in the editor). Heading 1 or 2. The left and right block are fixed in size, so look or your text fits in the block. The upper block has not a fixed size, but keep it as short as possible. Click Save (Opslaan)

- Give the video a name - Select Publiek - Paste the URL of YouTube in the line under "Video" - Under "Content" (Inhoud) you can give a subscription - Click Save (Opslaan) - The movie can be seen in the Gallery Would you like for example add a new news message about a new video? Then you can do two things. You can paste the url of the YouTube video in the editor of the news message in the line Video. The video will then be placed automatically in the newsitem.
Or you cab add a news message and link from there to the video. For example, enjoy this video of changemakers from municipality X!. If you click on a movie itself, it shows as a popup. But if you click on the title of a movie, the movie opens on a page, and you can copy the link to that page in the browser. This link then use it in your article. A picture is also required here. It seems a good solution to use for example the image below here. Then you see immediately on the news that it is a movie! You can also create an image of a 'still' of your movie, or maybe you have other creative ideas. The editor
In any edit field in the cms you can see an editor above the message text. Which means you can create bold or italic text. You can also find links (globe icon with screw) or add more images (painting). To add a link, click the globe icon and paste the URL you want to link to in the field. When it is a website other then WE CAN Young, you can choose New window (Nieuw venster) at Target (Doel) so that your visitors will not leave your site. If for example you want to link to a PDF, click again on the globe icon and then "Browse Server". You then enter the file server. Click Upload, then browse to upload your document. Then again upload and then add on file (Bestand toevoegen). Again you can choose to open the document in a new window. If you want to add a picture in the message itself, click on the painting. Then follow the same action as for example adding a pdf. You can also change the size of the picture here. The maximum wide should be 550 pixels. TIP: Start the title of your documents and images with BES so you are able to find them easily in the server. If you want the picture to refer to a webpage, you can add the URL under the tab "Link".
