Thanks, I just finished writing and publishing my first blog post using site content earlier today. I never even noticed the stats part. I wonder what the 1/5 means? I'm also wondering what the bucket will do? I like the fact you can set word number goals and I may start doing that.

The 1/5 is the Writing Skills level that you have attained.
Bucket is to contain snippets of information you find on the internet that you may want to make a note of - kind of like a bucket list that you will get to use later.

I agree with you, the Word Count is a great motivator to keep you informed of your progress in reaching your goal.

Let me know if there is anything you need further assistance with.

Thank you for doing this early training. It's going to be great help to get started with SiteContent before Kyle's full training is added to the lessons.

I'm giving it a try now. Edu, many thanks. ~Jude

I agree. Especially once the other phases of this tool are rolled out. This is just the first phase according to Carson's post yesterday. I will take time to get to know it, meanwhile working as I normally do.

Indeed! That is the idea of rolling out the new platform in stages, you can attend to issues systematically and iron them out phase by phase ensuring that by the time we reach the last phase, it will be a reliable and thoroughly tested platform!

Thanks! I persevered and pressed on! It was rather quick and there is a whole lot more, but it is meant to assist those who find it hard to find their way around and utilize the features of WA.
