Write a blog post

A blog post goes on your Blog page and gets a page of its own. Use it for articles, news and short studies.

1. In the panel on the left, under Content, click Blog Posts.
2. Click + Add. The Add a blog post window opens.
3. Type the Title.
4. Choose the Date.
5. Choose the Author. For a new name, click + Add a new author, type the name, and click Add.
6. Choose the Category. For a new one, click + Add a new category, type the name, and click Add.
7. Write your post in Post content. You can paste it from another program too.
8. If you want, click Choose image under Featured image and add a photo.
9. If you want, fill in the SEO boxes. See Help a page show up on Google.
10. Click Save.
11. Click Publish. See Publish your site.

Title, Date, Author and Category are required.

Style your post

The bar above Post content styles the words you select:

• B makes words bold, and I makes them italic.
• • starts a bullet list, and 1. starts a numbered list.
• H2 makes a line a heading. ¶ makes it plain text again.
• The link button turns selected words into a link. Choose a page under Links to, or type a web address under Or a web address. Then click Save.

Text you paste keeps its paragraphs, bold, italics, lists and links. Other fonts and colors are removed, so the post matches your site. Photos you paste are left out. Use the Featured image for the post’s photo.

The featured image

The featured image shows at the top of the post’s page and on its card on the Blog page. It is also the picture people see when the post is shared on Facebook or in a text message.

If it does not work

• “Give this blog post a title first.”: Type a Title.
• “One more detail still needs choosing.”: The box that is missing turns red. Fill in the date, author or category.
• “Select the words to link first.”: Select the words with your mouse or finger, then click the link button.
