Review and document flow of News articles on website

[keenanandrew]

To ensure the right articles appear in the right place, a clear and simple set of tags and widgets need to be created and documented.

This will - at a minimum - define the content of two sections of the homepage:

• Banner images (a combination of internal links, conventional news articles, and third-party ads)
• 'Latest news' section (a reverse-chronological list of articles)

Document:

• [ ] Homepage banner

Thinking this one through. What are the objectives?

Immediate:

• [x] Set up the newswidget that powers the Banner, to automatically show all articles that have the tag 'banner'
• [x] Set up the newswidget that powers the Latest News section, to automatically show all articles owned by the 'Oxford SU' organisation within MSL

Later:

• [ ] Review all articles from last 18 months to see if they should still be accessible
• [ ] Archive / hide all articles older than 18 months
• [ ] Decide whether adverts in the Banner should also be shown in the Latest News section (probably not but not a major issue)
• [ ] Set up the Latest News widget to also show articles associated with officers, and possibly also articles associated with campaigns and student projects (but probably not articles associated with common rooms or societies)
