Frequently Asked Questions and Answers

Topics, Places & Tags – What’s the Difference? Why Should I Use Them?

Topics, Places, and Tags all function as tagging systems. The key difference is:

  • Topics & Locations: You choose from a predefined list.
  • Tags: You can enter any custom term to make it searchable.

Can I Change the Sender of Mailings in Newsmachine?

Yes, you can change the sender under the Press release tab:

  1. Go to Releases in the top menu.
  2. Select Publish in the submenu and then click on Press Releases in the left-hand menu.
  3. To change the sender in a draft, find the mailing in the list and click on the edit icon. For a new mailing, click on New press release.
  4. Scroll down to Sender, select Custom, and enter the sender manually.

Why Aren’t My Press Releases Visible in the Press Room?

By default, press releases and other materials (images, documents, etc.) are hidden from the press room. To make them visible:

  1. Open the press release, image or document.
  2. Scroll down to the option Visible in the press room.
  3. Select Visible to publish it.

For example, for images, you need to mark each one as Visible individually. (Navigate to Releases > Publish > Images in the menu on the left.)
