  1. Add a New Category for the issue — be sure to set the parent to Published. This enables it as an option for new submissions and provides a link to show all items.
  2. Create a New Page to be the table of contents. Edit as needed to link to all articles, e.g. create a page to link to as a forward. Set a featured image.
  3. (Admin role needed) When this page is ready to be go to the front of the site, edit the Settings – Reading for Front page to this new page. This makes it the landing page for the site.

Link to share for authors

Currently not on the site; you can create a new page for each issue as a “call for submissions”; the link to the form is http://undergradjournal.trubox.ca/. This form should be used even if you are adding a new article as an editor, as it adds additional information.
