Publish an Ad (new type)
Since an Ad is just a short 'Post' that gets added to the end of regular posts, it's simply a matter of doing a few, important steps:
- Create a new Post and add the Ad content. The 'Advertisement' text will be automatically added to the top and bottom of the Ad when it shows up on the site
- Set the 'Ad-New' Category. This sets up the Ad to be shown at the bottom of regular articles.
- Set the 'expires' Tag. This allows the Expiry script to find it and check the expiry date.
- Set a date for the Ad to expire. This allows the script to expire the Ad when the time comes.
- Publish the Ad when ready.
NOTE: Any post can be expired by setting the 'expires' tag. The script will handle this.
