Adding A Title To Your Guide

Assigning a title to your content is often one of the more difficult things a content creator is faced with before publishing a piece of work. Titles can either increase curiosity about a piece of work, or discourage interest in a product. The joy of digital publishing is that everything can be tweaked on-the-fly as hard evidence becomes available to content creators. At Guides.co, we've built a mechanism for both initially adding a title to your Guide during the Guide creation process, but also refining (or changing it) at any point in the future.

Below is the process for assigning a title to your Guide, and changing the title should you feel the need to alter it in the future.

Adding A Title During The Guide Creation Process

Inputting an initial title for your Guide may be the easiest thing you'll ever do at Guides. No matter how, or where you start creating your Guide, you'll be met with the same modal (popup) dialog box that forces you to name your Guide before you can even begin to input your content into the Guide. That also, however, introduces a little hiccup that we've also solved: re-naming your Guide once you've given the title a little more thought.

Changing A Title After The Original Guide Creation Process Has Been Completed
