Add a press release – SAM Support

Go to the Press Release Archive (sometimes can be named News Archive) page
Select Architecture from the SAM toolbar and click New Page.
Enter the title of your press release in the Navigation Label field.
Your page will appear below the other press releases, however you'll see that it doesn't have a date. Click on your page and we'll add it.
Select Architecture from the toolbar and click Edit Page Info.
Click Edit SEO/SEM (link at the bottom of the window) and enter the date for your press release in the Last Modified field. It accepts several date formats such as 7-2-12, July 2, 2012, 7/2/12. Click Post Content.
Sometimes we include a short description on the News and Events page below the press release headline. If your site has this, then while you’re on your new page click Edit Page Info and enter a brief description in the Abstract field then click Post Content.
Now we'll add content to the page, so select Content from the toolbar and in the second drop down select Content Chunk. You can optionally give it a chunk title, or leave it blank and click Ok. The chunk title is only visible in SAM and is for your purposes in SAM.
Open your news release content (possibly in Word or in a PDF), highlight all the content and copy it.
Click Paste as Plain Text so that it won't bring over all the formatting from the other document. This button is in the editing buttons below the toolbar, on the top row fourth from the left. Then paste it into the chunk.
Apply any heading styles and add links where necessary. Save the chunk. If you go back to the Press Release Archive page your new page should show up in the correct year and sequence. It will also appear on the News and Events page.
When you're ready to publish your news release, you can publish the whole site or you can publish the News and Events branch.
