EnglishHow to Find a Specific Story or Section on themonitor.net
Updated
To find a specific story on themonitor.net, use the "Search this site" box and enter a distinctive keyword from the headline or topic, then browse the homepage headlines and section entries for the latest local news and sports. The site also has a "User account menu" for account-related functions. These are the main navigation paths supported by the site's visible structure.
Start with site search
The most direct route to a particular article is the site's search function.
- Locate the "Search this site" field on the page.
- Enter a keyword tied to the story — for example, a name, place, or event from the headline.
- Submit the search and review the results for the matching article.
Expected result: a list of stories containing your keyword. If the term is too generic, try a more distinctive word from the headline, such as a proper noun.
Browse homepage headlines and sections
If you don't know the exact keyword, scan the homepage. The site presents current stories as headline entries, and the visible examples show the kind of local coverage you can expect:
| Headline entry | Topic area |
|---|---|
| Tool faces wrongful death lawsuit | Local news |
| Precinct 1 rehabilitates Caney City boat ramp | Local community news |
| Sheriff Botie Hillhouse discusses crimes against children task force | Local public safety news |
The publication describes itself as "Your only local paper for news and sports," so expect local news and sports to be the main content areas. Use the headline entries and section links to move into the topic you want.
Use the user account menu
The "User account menu" is a separate navigation area for account-related functions. If you have an account or need to manage one, start there rather than in the story listings. The site's materials mention a "subscribe" option, but no pricing or access details are provided here, so check the site itself for current terms.
Common sticking points
- Search returns too many results: use a more specific term, ideally a name or place from the headline.
- Story not on the homepage: older items drop off the front page, so search is the better route.
- Looking for sports: the paper covers sports, but the visible homepage examples are news items — use search or the section entries to reach sports coverage.
In short: search for a distinctive keyword first, browse headlines and sections second, and use the user account menu only for account functions.
