ADDING A NEW POST

The most common, and best was to add a new post is from the

Posts menu, select Add New as shown to the right.

Menu > Posts > Add New

Entering your post

If you added a new page to your site, this screen will look familiar. Enter your

post title and click on the content editor. Did you notice the Permalink?
