HOW TO POST SEGMENTS/MATCHES FROM GOOGLE TO BACKSTAGE 3! (Read and Respond!)

[Justin]

Alright.

Ross has been working hard on our site with lots of updates, and we appreciate the fuck out of him for it!

That said, he's been giving me tidbits of useful information on what works the best for the website, and the following will from now on be the ONLY acceptable way to paste from Google Drive into the Backstage 3 script, and I expect every active member on the roster to reply to this thread before we put the Runsheet together for the next show.

That's right, it's on you slow bastards.

Okay, quick rundown:

NO MOAR HTML!

Use the WYSIWYG editor in Google to add your bolding, italics, centering, etcetera. This will keep the code inside the site cleaner, and make your shit look better. DO IT!

But Justin, it formats all weird when I do that~! Yeah, I know, I figured out why. (Thanks Ross) And rather than sit here and try to explain it to you, I'll just show you:

​

You must select this option in every doc before you start typing. That will fix all of the format issues we're having, and will cut down heavily on editing time for the staff.

IT'S JUST THAT SIMPLE!

Now get to replying, or we're never having another show!

Also reply with any questions.

read. I have questions that I'll ask on Skype, but I get the gist of it.

Probably worth noting that you can write directly into Backstage, you don't HAVE to use Google Docs first if you don't want to.

Google Docs does have better saving (after every keystroke) and collaboration capability. As per above, set the "Add Space After Paragraph" to add gaps between your paragraph, instead of hitting Enter twice. Every time you hit Enter twice to make your gaps, a kitten dies.
