Your New Scoop Site

Welcome to Scoop!

To help you figure things out, there is a Scoop Admin Guide which can hopefully answer most of your questions.

Some tips:

Most of the layout is changed in "Blocks", found in the admin tools menu
Features can be turned on and off, and configured, in "Site Controls" in the admin tools menu
Stories have an "edit" link right beside the "Full Story" link on an index page, and right beside the "Post a Comment" link on the full story page. They can also be edited by clicking the story title in the "Story List" admin tool
Boxes are what allow you to write new features for Scoop; they require a knowledge of the perl programming language to work with effectively, although you can often make small changes without knowing much perl. If you would like a feature added but cannot program it yourself, ScoopHost does custom Scoop programming as one of its services.
If you aren't sure where to look for a particular feature or piece of display, try the "Search Admin Tools" link in the admin tools menu.

For support, questions, and general help with Scoop, email support@scoophost.com

And speaking of frustration... URGENT ACTION ALERT

Remember last month when you made a phone call to State Representative Matt Lori (r) to tell him you expect better from him than his attempt to increase regulations, drive up health care costs and to criminalize your kids' cold medicine?

For a time, we shut it down. Just let that sink in for a minute folks. We brought out the light, and for a while, the threat of a sunburn kept this bad legislation indoors.

Unfortunately the cloudy skies over Lansing requires we sometimes must perform our Sun-Dance repeatedly. While our voices on the subject grew a little more silent with the satisfaction of a job well done, Representative Lori seems to have regained his own on the subject.

Apparently he hasn't gotten the message yet.

One of the nice things about blogging here on RightMichigan and over at MTTM, are the relationships I've been able to make with some great people in Lansing. This morning several little birdies started chirping that Representative Lori has decided to resurrect his big-government bill and to take a second swing for the fences after you folks rose up and spoke out last time.

Apparently he's been seen around the Capitol this week shopping for co-sponsors.

And below we go.
