Post Requirements

The news on the NZRYA site relies on receiving information from members. We do not have the resources to follow all possible sources of news items relevant to the NZ radio yacht sailing community. We therefore rely on people to feed us relevant information. This includes reports on events around New Zealand.

Posts should be sent to webmaster

When you send information through to us, it would be helpful if you consider the following guidelines:

  • Post Title
  • Image to use as the post header (optional)
  • Post categories: Class News, Club News, Regatta News, Regatta Report, General News – We do use specific categories and you can see these on posts on the site but don’t feel you need to be precise. Helping us know what the item relates to help us to get the categories right and for the right audience to receive it.
  • The text of the post
  • Any photos that are to be added to the post. The maximum image size should be 1024 x 1024. An image size of 1024×768 is recommended but there is flexibility. The images will be placed in a image gallery at the bottom of the notice. Unless indicated to be placed elsewhere.
  • PDF files can be attached to posts as well. Preferably, this should support the post and not be the post.
  • Regatta results can be provided as a PDF file or as the HTML file as produced by Afleet. HTML is preferred. We will use an image file (jpg) but the system does not allow the use to zoom in or scroll on these.
