All journal entries you make are private to you until you put them into a page. Thus, the publishing of a journal / journal entry is a three-step process:

You write your entry and save it.

In a page, you choose one of the :ref:`journal blocks <journal_blocks>` that suits your purpose best.

You give those who shall see that page access to it.

Post your journal entry by following the steps below.

In your journal, click on *New entry*.

**Title**: Provide a title for your journal entry that expresses what you are writing about. This field is mandatory.

**Entry**: You must also write some text, add pictures etc. The visual editor helps you format your journal entry. This field is mandatory.

**License**: You see this field if the site administrator turned on :ref:`license metadata <general_settings>`. Choose the license for the journal entry. You can set your default license in your :ref:`account settings <general_account_options>`.

**Advanced licensing**: You see this option if the site administrator turned on :ref:`license metadata <general_settings>`. If you click it, you see two additional license fields, "Licensor" and "Original URL", that you can fill in if this in not your own journal entry.

**Attachments**: Add an attachment or more to your journal entry, e.g. PDF files associated with it or images. You can add files either from your :ref:`files area <files_area>` or upload new ones directly onto your journal entry.

**Draft**: Mark your entry as draft if you have not finished it yet. This is especially helpful if you have published your journal in a page, but do not want anybody to read this particular entry (yet). It is always visible to you, but not others.

Click the *Save* button to save your entry or the *Cancel* button to abort your changes.

When you attach files directly to a journal entry, others can see them whenever they have access to the journal entry.

Alternatively, you can upload additional files directly.

**License**: You see this field if the site administrator turned on :ref:`license metadata <general_settings>`. Choose the license for the artefact that you are uploading. You can set your default license in your :ref:`account settings <general_account_options>`.

**Licensor**: You see this field if the site administrator turned on :ref:`license metadata <general_settings>`. If you are uploading a file that somebody else created, you can attribut the work to them here and provide their name for example.

Click the *Browse* button to select a file from your computer to upload.

If you wish, you can have your uploaded images resized automatically if they are larger than the recommended size. You can only see this option if the site administrator :ref:`made the image resizing option available <image_resizing>`.

Once you can create multiple journals, click the *Create journal* button to set up a new journal.

When you click the *Delete* button, you receive a confirmation message whether you really want to delete the journal or not. :index:`If you used the journal or an entry of it in a page <single: Confirmation message before deleting journal that is in use>`, Mahara lets you know so you can decide whether to delete the journal or not. Once you agree to delete the journal, your journal and all its content are removed permanently.

*Notes* are bits and pieces of text that you can re-use from one portfolio page in another without having to copy the entire page.

View your notes

Though you cannot create notes directly from this page, you can edit your notes. Their content will be changed wherever that note is used.

Click the *Edit* button |edit| to make changes to the note. Beware that any changes you make here are made to all instances of the note.

When you submitted a portfolio page that contains notes, you cannot change the note's content or delete it until the page is released again.

When you make changes to a note from this page, all instances of this note on any portfolio page will be affected.

:index:`A warning message appears at the top of the page <single: Display warning message when editing a note under "Content" that is used multiple times>` if you opened a note that is contained in more than one page. If you edit this note, it will be changed in all locations where this note appears.

If you do not wish the note to be changed everywhere it appears, go to the page where the note should stay as it is, go into the block configuration and click the "Make a copy" link above the text editor.

**Title**: The title of your existing note is displayed.

**Note**: The content of your note is displayed. If you make changes here, they will be applied to all instances where the note appears.

**License**: You see this field if the site administrator turned on :ref:`license metadata <general_settings>`. Choose the license for this note. You can set your default license in your :ref:`account settings <general_account_options>`.

**Advanced licensing**: You see this option if the site administrator turned on :ref:`license metadata <general_settings>`. If you click it, you see two additional license fields, "Licensor" and "Original URL", that you can fill in if this in not your own note or if you had published it elsewhere before.
