## Publishing an Issue of The Ember Times

<details>
<summary>Substack instructions</summary>
1. Get a login to the Ember Times account on Substack from [#support-ember-times](https://discord.com/channels/480462759797063690/485450546887786506).
1. Merge post PR to master on this repo.
1. Draft a new post in Substack. From https://github.com/ember-learn/ember-blog/find/master, search for the issue e.g. "171".
1. Copy the copy content of the blog from there into Substack. You will need to manually import images such as Office Hours Tomster mascot https://github.com/ember-learn/ember-blog/blob/master/public/images/tomsters/officehours.png.
1. Manually import ember_E-icon-4c-Rounded-Rectangle.png for the Substack social preview.
1. Send to the list!
</details>

<details>
<summary>Twitter instructions</summary>
1. Post tweet on Tweetdeck to post on Monday (second day of #engagement)
1. Set $natural reminder on Discord, for example: 1$natural on December 23th at 2:00pm send post tweet 2 news & announce @Alon (if you're avail!) :newspaper2: to #support-ember-times`
1. Use one emoji for each line item as a bullet point
1. Try to @ or hashtag when appropriate
1. Include the URL to the blog

<details>
<summary>dev.to instructions</summary>
1. Copy raw from GitHub, delete top YAML portion.
1. If they appear in the preview, delete any `alex-ignore` or `markdownlint-ignore`.
1. Delete any italics classes such as <span style="font-style: italic;"></span>. Normal <em> or *italicizeme* markdown doesn't work in /ember-blog right now.
1. Double curlies `{{` in header link titles will sometimes give you a liquid error. For example, with this heading `[No Implicit This or {{foo}} to {{this.foo}} Codemod](https://github.com/ember-codemods/ember-no-implicit-this-codemod)` I just deleted the double curlies to fix.
1. Check for weird line breaking. We can fix this with stricter markdownlint but it was a bit cumbersome for blog writers!
1. Add canonical URL and series name (The Ember Times should come up)
1. Add body image for Readers' Questions image manually https://github.com/ember-learn/ember-website/blob/master/public/images/tomsters/officehours.png.
1. Format manually if needed.
