Add a post 


Posts are attached to your blog and appear in the chronological order they are added.


The Add to your blog button has three options:



Add to blog menu


Add a post

Use to build a blog post with content blocks. It provides a flexible layout to present content in any order. The post will be added to your blog and saved as an individual asset in your Asset Store.


Use a template

Use to select a template from your Resource Store. It provides a structured post with set fields to complete. The post will be added to your blog and saved as an individual asset in your Asset Store.


Add an existing asset

Use to add an asset already created and saved to your Asset Store



The same asset can be added to multiple blogs at the same time. 








Make a post private


By default, a blog and all its posts are private and visible only to you. If you choose, you can share your blog with people, the web, or with ATLAS. It is possible to keep selected posts as private, even though the blog itself is visible.



To adjust:

  1. With your blog open, click the cog icon on the post
  2. Select Make Private from the list

    Post settings menu



To make a post public again, repeat the same steps above and choose Show Post. 









Remove a post


A post added to a blog can be removed if it is no longer required.



To remove:

  1. With the blog open, click the cog icon on the post
  2. Select Remove post from the list

    Post settings menu



Removing a post from a blog will not delete the asset from your Asset Store.
