Blog
The blog is for news and articles you publish over time. Posts use the same editor you know from pages. The shop has its own chapter.
Write a blog post
- Open Blog → Posts and press Write post (or Write post on the dashboard).
- Type a Post title; the slug fills itself. Press Create.
- The post opens in Write view, laid out like an article: title, optional subtitle, then the body.
- Click the + on the line to insert a Paragraph, Heading, Image, Quote, List or Embed. Type straight into it; the toolbar has the usual formatting plus highlight and text effects.
- Use the bar above the article to set the details (table below).
- Press Save, then publish.
| Bar button | What it sets |
|---|---|
| Cover | The cover image shown on the post and in blog lists. Do not repeat it in the body |
| Draft / Published / Scheduled | Draft saves without publishing; Published is visible at once; Scheduled asks for a Publish date & time and goes live then. A post with no date gets the moment it first goes live as its publish date, which is what lists and search engines show |
| Featured | Marks the post as featured, for lists that highlight it |
| Category | One or more blog categories |
| Tags | Type to search, or create a new tag on the spot |
Design view shows the same post as sections, so you can add any component (a gallery, a call to action). A post built from custom sections says Custom section — edit in Design. Page settings → SEO works as for pages. A shared post link shows that post's own title, description and cover image.
Manage posts and categories
- Filter by status (Published, Scheduled, Draft, Archived), category or tag, and sort by date or title.
- Each row has the write-protection lock, Edit and a ⋯ menu (duplicate, delete and more).
- Blog → Categories creates categories and nests them. Each category gets its own address, built from its slug.
- The blog list page itself is Blog Index Page in Pages; the layout used for every post is in Pages → Template.
Blog categories
Categories group related posts so readers can browse them. Manage them in Blog → Categories; pick a post's categories in the bar above the post in the editor.
- Press New category.
- Type the Category name. The Category slug fills itself (Cakes becomes
/cakes); change it if you like. - Add an optional Description and press Create.
- Click the pencil next to a name or slug to rename it in place.
- Drag the grip on the left to reorder categories, or drop one onto another to nest it.
- The ⋯ menu has Set as featured and Delete. Deleting cannot be undone.
