Create a blog entry based on a quoted selection

You can create a new blog entry from information you select in a web page in the Contribute browser. Such a selection is called a quote.

You can also create a blog entry from a quoted selection in an external browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer (see Post content to a blog from a browser) or from Microsoft Office applications such as Word, Excel, and Outlook (see Post content to a blog from Microsoft Office applications (Windows only)). You can then publish the entry to your blog.

  1. In the Contribute browser, browse to the web page you want to quote a selection from.

  2. Make a selection in the web page.

  3. Do one of the following:

    • If you have a connection to the website you are viewing, click the New button in the toolbar.

    • If you don’t have a connection to the website you are viewing, select File > New.

      The New Web Page Or Blog Entry dialog box appears.

  4. Expand the folder for the blog where you want to publish the new entry.

  5. Select Quote From Current Page.

    Note: This option is not available if you are using a browser other than the Contribute browser.
  6. Enter the title for the blog entry in the Blog Entry Title field.

  7. Click OK.
