✅ All plans

This guide will walk you through creating a blog post using SystemeScale.

You will need:

Access your blog

Navigate to Blogs on the Sites tab, then click on the title of your blog.

Open your blog dashboard

Go to Sites → Blogs, then click the title of the blog where you want to create the post.

Once you are on your blog, go to the Posts section. You will notice that some default posts were created when you initially set up your blog.

To modify these posts, click on the three dots and select Edit, or click the post title directly. You can delete them by clicking Delete.

📝

Default posts can be edited or removed

The default posts are only starter content. You can edit them for your own content or delete them before publishing your blog publicly.

To create a new blog post, click Create. A pop-up will appear, and you must fill in the input fields as follows:

Title: Enter the title of your post. This will appear as the post’s header.
Short description: Provide a brief description that will be shown on blog listing pages.
URL Path: Define the URL for your post.
Image: Upload or select an image to serve as the main photo for the post. It will also appear on the listing pages.
Categories: Select one or more categories to organize your blog post.
Save: Click this button to save your settings and create the new post.

Complete the post creation popup

Click Create, fill in the title, short description, URL path, image, and categories, then click Save.

✅

Use a clear URL path and category

A clear URL path helps readers understand the page topic, while categories help organize your blog posts for easier browsing.

After saving, your blog post will be displayed. The settings you have just defined can be changed later if you wish.

To customize the content of the new post, click on the three dots and then select Edit, or click on the name of the post.

Open the post editor

From the post list, click the three dots and select Edit, or click the post name directly to edit the post content.

🧱

Need to manage the post template?

If you want to control the layout shared across all blog posts, review the blog post layout guide.

Once you have finished customizing the content, click on the three dots again and choose Activate to display your post on your blog.

Publish the post on your blog

When the post content is ready, open the three-dot menu for the post and click Activate.

⚠️

Activate only when the post is ready

A blog post becomes visible on your blog after activation. Review the title, image, short description, categories, and content before activating it.
