How to find key sections and services on northerndailyleader.com.au
Updated
The Northern Daily Leader site is organised around a top navigation bar for main sections, a "Quick Links" block for everyday tools, and an account area for saved items and newsletters. Use the top bar when you know the topic you want (News, Sport, Noticeboard, Life and Culture, Explore Travel, Classifieds); use Quick Links when you want a specific service such as Today's Paper, Puzzles, Newsletters or ViewJobs. The site covers Tamworth and the surrounding NSW region, and a digital subscription also gives access to content from other mastheads in the same regional network.
Main sections in the top navigation
The navigation is grouped by topic, so you can go straight to a section rather than searching:
- News — broken into Local news, Court and Crime, Property and Development, Business and Finance, Council, Weather and Environment, National News, World News, Obituaries, and Australian of the Year.
- Comment — Opinion pieces.
- Sport — Toyota Hub, Live, AFL, Local Sport, NRL, A-League, National Sport, World Sport.
- Noticeboard — Our People, What's On, Local Partners, Newsletters, Contribute, Photos.
- Life and Culture — Lifestyle, Food & Drink, Arts & Entertainment, TV Guide, Third Party Content.
- Explore Travel — Destinations, Experiences, Best Of.
- News (tips and advice) — Read Magazine, Motoring, Video.
- Puzzles — Crossword, Sudoku, Ultimate Trivia.
- Jobs, Classifieds — including AgTrader, Country Cars, Horse Deals.
- Tributes & Funerals — Obituaries, Sponsored, Local Features, Special Publications, Partner Content, Sponsorships.
If you are looking for local Tamworth coverage specifically, start with News → Local news rather than the national or world feeds.
Quick Links: the fastest route to common services
The Quick Links block is the shortcut area for services people use repeatedly:
| Link | What it opens |
|---|---|
| Today's Paper | The digital version of the print edition, read online |
| Puzzles | Crossword, Sudoku and Ultimate Trivia |
| Newsletters | Sign-up page for newsletters tailored to your interests |
| ViewJobs | Job listings across Australia |
| Network | Links to other mastheads in the group |
| Video | Video content |
| Press Releases from AAP | Wire content |
Use Today's Paper when you want the edition as published rather than the rolling news feed.
Account area: saved items, newsletters and subscription
The account menu sits in the header and includes My saved List, Newsletters, My Account and Logout. From here you can manage saved articles and newsletter preferences, and reach subscription management.
A digital subscription includes access to content from all websites in the region, plus the digital versions of the print editions (Today's Paper). The site links to a subscription offers page rather than publishing a price in the navigation, so check that page for current terms. The regional network named on the site includes:
- Glen Innes Examiner
- Moree Champion
- Namoi Valley Independent
- Tenterfield Star
- The Armidale Express
- The Inverell Times
What the site covers
The Northern Daily Leader is the Tamworth, NSW masthead. Its website carries local news, court and crime reporting, property and development, council and weather coverage, sport (with a strong local and NRL focus), opinion, lifestyle and culture, travel, classifieds, jobs, and tributes and funerals. It also runs national and world news feeds, plus puzzles and newsletters.
Common sticking points
- "I can't find the print edition." It is under Quick Links → Today's Paper, not in the main topic navigation.
- "Where do I sign up for email updates?" Quick Links → Newsletters, or the Newsletters link in the Noticeboard section.
- "Why am I hitting a paywall on another regional site?" The subscription covers the regional network listed above, so log in with the same account rather than subscribing separately.
- "I want to submit something." Use Noticeboard → Contribute or Photos.
