Blog Posts

Blog posts are displayed on several locations around the site, as well as on the blog listing page. Note that news posts and events posts have separate listings.

Adding and editing blog posts

From the WordPress dashboard, click Posts on the left menu to bring up the full listing. To edit an existing blog post, click its name in the list; to add a new blog post, click Add New at the top of the page.

On the Edit Post page, there are several fields available:

  • Title: this title is displayed in the listing on the News page and on the individual post page.
