When you've finished adding content, click on the Settings tab.
On the Settings tab, you may configure visibility and publish dates to control when the post appears. You may also control comments for this individual post here.
Visibility may be Draft
, Published
, or Logged in Customers Only
. If the last is chosen, this post will be invisible to anyone not registered and logged into your web site.
If you plan on sharing (by you or anyoe else) your blog posts on Facebook, the SEO Meta Description field is critical. It will be used by Facebook as the main text on the link post, along with an image the poster selects. It is an excellent practice to provide that Meta Description field for all blog posts. Notice how the meta description below flows into the Facebook post. |
