This is mostly a test of the “reply” capability with respect to “Articles” that you post. You should get an email that says a reply is awaiting “approval” or maybe it says “moderation”, I don’t recall. Assuming you get the email, it should contain a few links that you can choose from. Despite a convenient link that says “approve this reply” (or something like that), I usually log in to the site and go to the replies (or maybe it’s “comments”) section and approve (or delete, as appropriate) any awaiting approval. As with other administrator pages (such as for posts or pages) you probably need to hover your cursor over the title in order to make the choices become visible directly underneath. I don’t know why they did it that way, incidentally, and someday when I have nothing else to do I may look for the little piece of code that’s responsible for it and change it.

Assuming you get far enough to actually “approve” of this reply (comment), I’d recommend then having a look at the article itself. I think the reply will then be visible directly underneath the article itself. Or, there may just be some fine print that says something like “1 reply” or “Number of Replies: 1″ in which case you’d click that in order to view the reply. By the way, I’m going through this as a practice exercise for you. Since this reply would remain viewable by everybody in the world, and is of little or no interest to your members, you’ll probably want to go back and just delete it.

Having completed the above exercise, you could ponder whether having replies to your articles is even desirable in the first place. It’s a feature that’s easy to turn on or off.

Finally, in regard to your article, I’d suggest you do a tad more than just publish the link; maybe a short sentence like, “Here’s a link to a pdf file containing 2010-2011 Pupillage Teams.” Also, when you use that handy little wizard form for entering links, there’s a box to give it a title. When you put in a title there, then when visitors hover over the link a tooltip will appear showing the title. A good title for something like this might be “pdf file approx. 400 Kb”. That way people have a clue what to expect if they click the link. The way it stands now, I think most people would expect a web page, since most people don’t look in their browser status bar to see what the URL tells them about it. Ditto for your “Instructions for updating info on national site”.
