Submitting a Pull Request (PR)

  1. Create your a new MD file for your post

    • Always create a working branch in your local repo before starting a new article. Avoid working in the main branch.
    • Create the new post in the folder for the current month (E.g. Posts/2021/02 for February of 2021).
    • All images you want to include go in the media folder of the current month.
      • If the media folder doesn't exist, create it.
      • Create a subfolder that matches the name of you post's MD file in the media folder.

  2. Write your content in markdown.

    • Be sure to include the YAML frontmatter in your file.
    • Follow the guidance in our Reviewer's Guide.
    • You don't need to repeat the title as an H1 header. The first header in your post should be H2. This header DOES NOT need to be the first lin of you post after the frontmatter.

  3. Push your working branch to your fork in GitHub.

  4. Create a PR to merge the working branch of your fork into the main branch of the PowerShell/Community-Blog repository.

  5. Fill out the PR template and click submit.

    • Include specific instructions in the template if you want the post to be published at a specific date and time.

PR Review process

Your PR will be reviewed by the Blog staff. They may have editorial suggestions. Please fix issues and accept the editorial changes.

Once your PR has been reviewed and approved, it will be merged. Once merged the post is automatically copied to WordPress where the WP admins will preview the rendering. They may have to make minor changes to fix issues created by the translation to WordPress. If the Preview is good, the post will be published.
