Step-by-step workflows

Publish your first member note

Create a draft, examine its page, and publish it.

Before you start

An invited Jot account and Markdown text.

Create a draft

  1. Sign in.
  2. Open Notes.
  3. Select + new.
  4. Enter a title.
  5. Enter Markdown text.
  6. If publish this note is selected, clear it.
  7. Select save draft.

A draft is visible only to its owner. Saving a managed note records a revision.

Examine the page

  1. Open the saved note.
  2. Select preview.
  3. Examine the headings, links, and images.
  4. Select edit.
  5. If necessary, correct the Markdown.

Preview does not publish the note.

Publish the note

  1. Select publish this note.
  2. If the note must appear in site listings, select list on homepage.
  3. Select save.
  4. Open the saved URL.
  5. Examine the published page.

An unlisted note can still be read by URL. Passwords and private-site access can restrict reading.
