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.

The Republican governor and former business executive will lead a nine-person delegation from Tuesday through Sept. 27 to boost trade, tourism and investment between China and Michigan. The 10-day, 18,000-mile trip includes stops in Shanghai and the provincial capitals of Hangzhou, Wuhan, Guiyang and Chengdu, according to Snyder's office.

Separately, the MEDC is taking representatives from 21 Michigan companies - including 15 from Metro Detroit - to China on Monday for a 10-day, six-city tour to market Michigan-made automotive, consumer and food products to Chinese customers and distributors. Snyder's trip follows a September 2011 trade mission to China, South Korea and Japan. He credits that trip with leading to economic developments, including the expansion of Hyundai America Technical Center Inc. near Ann Arbor and a major investment in the Chinese-backed Nexteer Automotive facility near Saginaw.
On the relationship building front, Snyder plans to rekindle a 30-year sister link between Michigan and the Sichuan province "that hasn't been as active as it should be." He also will see what develops from Pure Michigan advertisements translated for a Chinese website.
With economic analysts predicting Chinese companies may make $1 trillion in foreign investments by 2020, Snyder and the MEDC will stress to Chinese investors "Michigan is well suited to be a home for some of those investments," Wurfel said.
