Writing a new blog post

Creating a new blog post in IDX Blogger is quick any easy.  You can categorize the post (some special categories even use a special icon on your map), tag the post, and even geocode the post to your map.  Follow the instructions below to see how to create a new blog post.

Step 1: From the “Write” menu, select “Post”.

Step 2: Enter the title of your post, as well as the body content of the post.  (Click here to see how to add images and media to your post)

Step 3: (Optional) You can tag your post for easy categorization and grouping with similar posts.  (Click here to see more information on tags)

Step 4: (Optional) Categorize your post by clicking the checkboxes of the categories that you wish the post to be filed under.  (Click here to see more information on Categories)

(Remember, you must use special categories if you want to use the Special Map Icons)

Step 5: (Optional) Enter the address to the location you are blogging about, then click “Map Location”.  This will show a preview pin on the mini map representing the location the post will be geocoded to on your IDX map.  (Remember, posts without a location will not appear on your map.  Click here to learn more about geocoding)

Step 6: Click “Publish” to post immediately to your site.  You can click “Save” if you would like to work on this same post later, and publish at a later date.
