Blog Settings

Configure and Manage general aspects of your Blog. Ideally, you’ll set them up once, and won’t need to modify them recurrently, as configurations may affect other modules.

☝ Remember to Save all your changes.

Configuring the Blog Settings​

Below is a detailed description of each field in the form. Required fields contain a ‘*’.

Screenshot Blog settings Overview

Inactive (checkbox)​

When this checkbox is selected, the blog will no longer be visible on the site and is deactivated. Inactive blogs display a red icon to the right of their name in the blog selector. By default, the blog is active.

Basic Configuration​

Give your blog a Title, it will appear as the main title in the listing of posts on your website.

Upload an Image, it will appear in the blog header on your website.

Specify a Path URL (path) for your blog so your potential customers can access it. Example: domain.com/blog. When defining the URL, make sure it is unique (two blogs can’t have the same URL).

Select a Domain* from the dropdown of all available domains in your account. Select a domain on which you wish the blog to appear.

Define Category URL and Tag URL paths where the post category URLs are hosted. Example: domain.com/blog-url/category-url/example-category and domain.com/blog-url/tag-url/example-tag

For instance, if your site is travel-related and you have a blog post category for tips, one category might be “Travel Tips for Families.” In this case, the URL would be: travelsite.com/blog/category/travel-tips-for-families

Choose a Theme to customize Yello! on your ERP. This value does not affect the blog’s appearance on your website; Use it to differentiate multiple blogs during configuration.
