How to create a Blog Post

To create a blog post navigate to the Blog posts section from the sidebar menu of your admin panel under Website and click on the "Create" button that appears on the top of your screen.

Blog posts include a few settings allowing you to fully customize the way blog posts are displayed.


From the General tab you can define:

Choose media. You can define the featured image of your post shown in the blog list or the blog post page. You can either select an existing image or upload a new one.

Title. This is the title of your post. It is displayed in the blog list, blog post page, breadcrumbs of your storefront and in the metas unless you specify meta tags for it.


URL. This is the URL of your post. By default Reactive creates a link based on the post title that you enter. You can always change that later.


Published at. This field lets you specify when your post should be published. The publish date is based on your storefront's timezone set under your General Settings.

Layout. This lets you define which layout to use for your blog post. You can choose from many different options (Modern, Artistic, Boxed etc.). If you choose to use the Page Builder it means that the post content will be blank and everything will be controlled from the page builder. For information on how to use the builder can be found here.

Visible. This field defines whether your post will be visible on your blog list.


Description. Everything you set in the description field will be shown to your blog post page as its content in case you use Boxed or Wide layout. The first 100 characters of your description are also shown as a short description on the blog list page.


From the Content tab you can edit with Page Builder. 

Using the Reactive Page Builder and our stunning page customisations you can create your corporate identity and your landing pages for your campaigns in seconds. And the fun doesn't end here. Also, the Reactive Team members have prepared some very nice themes that you can easily use as well as many components that you can choose from to create your own pages. Find out more about how to set up a page with the Reactive Page Builder. 


From the SEO tab you can define:

Meta Tags. More information about content meta tags can be found here.
