Usage
Open Appearance → Customize → Blog & Posts → Settings to set up the blog page and archives. Choose a Layout, set BG Color and White Text, and pick where the Sidebar goes.
Set Blog Page so the return link on single posts points to your blog. To design the blog page yourself, pick a Custom Layout page, build it with blocks, and add the {{posts}} keyword (plus the others listed under that setting) where the posts should go.
When to use it
- Setting up a new blog before styling cards or single posts.
- Switching from the default grid to a magazine or list layout.
- Hiding the sidebar on phones with Hide Sidebar on Mobile.
Tips
- Default Description shows on category and tag pages that don't have a description of their own.
- Default Headline is replaced by the category or archive name on those pages.
- Display Comments sets the site-wide default. Individual posts can still change their discussion settings in the editor.
- Keep the custom layout page Private so search engines index your posts, not the layout page.
- Pair White Text with a dark BG Color.
