I'm presently rewriting the news publishing system so that it's not only easier to create new news items, but it's also possible to edit, track, and subscribe to. News images will also have a dialog that allows you to crop the original into a thumbnail and there will also be a new spot to add tags.Every new post will be submitted as a J-Spot post so that other people on your J-Spot feed can see it and you'll finally be able to track and edit posts! Descriptions will now be optional as if no description is made, it will auto-create one from the article itself. Friendly URL will no longer be a thing as it will be automatically generated.The editor itself will remain CODE ONLY since the Jappleng style system is a little buggy for the time being. With that said, you don't need to style anything using jBB code but you're free to do so to make your posts shine! Sometime later before the end of the year, the full visual editor will arrive to News in Japan and make it that much easier to create stylish posts.Most features will be made available on Friday afternoon (EST) some time. Comment creation will also come with this update, please look forward to it!You can be your own news broadcaster!Create your news, share it on Jappleng and the world! Earn J-Points for doing so, and the more people get involved with your news articles, the more points you earn. Giveaways are given to those who make the best contributions so be sure to post as much as you can!

Once again, this page is from a old section called News in Japan which hasn't been a thing since about 2016. But Jappleng has a lot more to offer such as:
- Entertainment section for Anime lineup, news, reviews and more (over 14,000 anime titles!)
- Education section to learn Japanese and about Japan for free
- Club Jappleng to create and join fan clubs, study groups etc...
- Travel Guides to learn more about Japan, immigration and tourist attractions
- Community forums, dedicated chat system, J-Spot social network
- Japanese practice games and other fun stuff like Yokai Trainers
- Massive Japanese <> English dictionary with over 500,000 words
- Achievements, unlockables and more!
