EDITING EXISTING POSTS

To list all the posts on your blog, click on Posts in the Posts

menu as shown to the right. This will show all the posts,

over several pages once you have several on your site.

Just like with Pages, hover over a post to see the options

available to you.

You can edit existing posts or Trash them.

RECOVERING POSTS FROM TRASH

This is the same as pages. Above your list of posts you have the option to view

those posts in Trash and recover them, or delete the permanently.

COMMENTS

An active blog is typically accompanied by many comments from visitors to your

website. This could be a pain to manage, but WordPress makes it easy.

You receive an email as comments are made informing you of new comments,

and allowing you to approve them, trash them or mark them as spam. The email

is self explanatory and dead easy to use.
