Creating a Clinical Resource

Clinical Resources are articles, videos, infographics, documents, and provider spotlights on UAMSHealth.com. They can be connected to providers, locations, areas of expertise, and conditions and treatments. This article covers the steps that are the same for every Clinical Resource. The fields on the Content tab depend on the resource type, and each type has its own article.

Resource Types

• Creating a Clinical Resource with the Article Resource Type
• Creating a Clinical Resource with the Infographic Resource Type
• Creating a Clinical Resource with the Video Resource Type
• Creating a Clinical Resource with the Document Resource Type
• Creating a Clinical Resource with the Provider Spotlight Resource Type

Create the Post

1. Sign in to the WordPress admin for UAMSHealth.com.
2. In the left menu, click Clinical Resources > Add New Resource.
3. Enter the full title of the resource in the Add title field at the top of the page.
4. In the Clinical Resource Item Configuration box, complete the tabs described below. Start with the Content tab, since the resource type you choose there determines which other tabs appear.

For every resource type except Provider Spotlight, the box has these tabs down the left side: General Details, Content, Related Providers, Related Locations, Related Areas of Expertise, Related Conditions and Treatments, and Related Clinical Resources. A Provider Spotlight shows only Content and Related Clinical Resources.

Content Tab

1. Choose a Resource Type (required): Article, Infographic, Video, Document, or Provider Spotlight.
2. Complete the fields that appear. They are different for each type. Follow the article for your type, linked in the Resource Types list above.

For all types except Provider Spotlight, the first field is Is this syndicated from another source? (required). Choose No or Yes. Choosing Yes adds a required Syndication Source URL field for the original source. Articles have an additional National Cancer Institute question, covered in the Article article.

Tip: Each text editor shows “Click to initialize TinyMCE” until you click in it. Click inside the box and wait for the toolbar to load before pasting. Each editor has Visual and Text tabs in its top right corner.

General Details Tab

This tab is available for every type except Provider Spotlight.

1. Short Title (optional): Enter a shorter title to use where the resource appears in cards and lists, up to 60 characters. Leave it blank to use the full title. The full title is always used for the page heading.
2. Short Description: Write the description that appears for this page in search results and in lists on the site. It is limited to 160 characters.
3. Featured Image: Click Add Image and choose or upload the image. It is used for social sharing and when displaying the resource on UAMS web content. It must be 16:9 and at least 1280×720.
4. Square Image (optional): The featured image switches between 16:9 and 1:1 on the Clinical Resource archive. By default, the square version is an automatic crop from the center of the featured image. If that crop would not look good, click Add Image and upload a square version instead.

For other image dimensions, see Image Sizes and Character Limits.

Related Tabs

Use these tabs to connect the resource to related content on the site. Each has a search box above a list. Search or scroll the list and select the items that apply. Some list items are labeled with a status such as draft, pending-review, or inactive.

• Related Providers: Providers display in alphabetical order. If there is more than one group of providers, the first row displays before prompting the user to load more.
• Related Locations: Select the locations the resource relates to.
• Related Areas of Expertise: Select the areas of expertise the resource relates to.
• Related Conditions and Treatments: This tab has two lists. Select from Condition(s) and from Treatment(s) & Procedure(s).
• Related Clinical Resources: Resources display on the page in the order in which they were published, with the most recently published resources first.

Set the Publish Date

The Publish box on the right side of the page shows the post’s status, visibility, and publish date. It defaults to Publish immediately. To use a different date:

1. Click Edit beside Publish immediately.
2. Set the month, day, year, and time.
3. Click OK.

Note: For a video that is already on YouTube, the publish date should match the YouTube upload date. See Creating a Clinical Resource with the Video Resource Type.

Save, Preview, and Publish

1. Click Save Draft in the Publish box to save your work without making it public.
2. Click Preview and check the page: the title, images, introduction, main content, and related items.
3. Check the Visibility setting and the publish date.
4. Click Publish when everything is correct.

Note: Below the Clinical Resource Item Configuration box are SEO and Content analysis boxes. This article does not cover them.
