Blog Post #6

Set up your Blog

  • Create individual blog pages for your blog post (+New page, like this one).
  • Insert text and image blocks as you create your content.
  • When done, make sure you update the titles and descriptions that appear in the Grid block on the Homepage and on the Image blocks on the main Blog page, as well as embed the links to the blog pages with the respective "Read more" buttons.
  • If you are not on the free plan, there are other ways to set up your blog. If you are curious you can read this article https://help.podia.com/en/articles/208-how-to-create-a-blog-on-your-site (you can set up your blog as a previewable free course, or use the community feature to do public posts, as opposed to custom pages as we're suggesting here).
