News magazine

The magazine main column opens with a big leader item, and then continues with less prominent news items and a long list of items. From top to bottom and left to right, the sequence of items shown is determined by effective date i.e. the publication date, with the most recently published news item on top.

The right column shows a list of trending news items. For each news item, the system keeps track of when each user first read that item. The trending column shows those items that have been read for the first time, by most users, in the past 14 days, with the most popular news item on top.

To avoid duplication with the main magazine column, the first four news item in the main magazine will not be shown in the trending column, even if they are very popular.

The news magazine has a section navigation that allows you to read only news items within that section.

Only published news items are shown, even if you’re logged in as a news editor. If you are logged in as a news editor, there’s a pencil icon on each news item that will take you directly to the editing view for that news item, in the News app app.
