NewsGate Story Folders

If CUE is connected to a CCI NewsGate system as well as an Escenic Content Engine, then an extra Story folders panel is included in the navigation pane on the left. All your Newsgate story folders are listed in this panel.

You can filter the list of story folders by typing in the Filter field at the top of the navigation pane: only story folders containing the string you enter will be displayed.

Select a folder from the list to open it in an editor:

A story folder contains the sections Stories, Assets, Assignments, Team and Contacts. All these sections have similar contents to the corresponding sections in CCI NewsGate, except for the Stories section. In NewsGate, stories are added to different packages for output to different media, whereas In CUE, a story can exist in different media versions, all of which share a common text.

To create a new story in CUE, select the + button on the menu bar. This creates a story in a new story folder, containing an online package (that is, an Escenic content item).

To simply add a new text to a story folder, select the + button in the story folder. The process of creating a new text is the same as in NewsGate.

The metadata properties displayed on the right of the story folder are the same as those displayed in CCI Newsgate and have the same meaning/functionality.
