Only area moderators and realm admins can create About sections. Regular users can read and acknowledge them.
Steps
Open the area's About page.
Click Add section.
Title — a clear noun phrase ("How Sarah communicates", "Medical history").
Folder — optional. Pick an existing folder, or create one on the fly.
Body — use the rich-text editor. Paragraphs, headings, bullets, images, tables, links.
Optional: tick Alert when published to notify everyone with access that a new section is up for reading.
Save. Members of the area can see it immediately and the section appears on the About page.
Good section structure
One topic per section — easier to revise, easier to read.
Plain language — strangers picking up the record cold should understand it on first read.
Concrete examples — "Sarah likes coffee" reads weakly; "Sarah has two milky coffees mid-morning, both with no sugar" reads strongly.
Tip — Use folders to group sections that change at different cadences. "Background" rarely changes; "Daily routine" changes often. Grouping them separately means reviewers can scan what's likely to need updating.
