Blog
Your blog
Every member has a blog at /@handle/blog. A blog post is a document that you publish. You keep writing and editing it in the document editor, and the post shows the latest version.
Your blog has:
- an index page listing your posts
- a page for each tag, at
/@handle/blog/tags/tag - an RSS feed at
/@handle/blog/rss.xml(add?format=atomfor Atom)
Posts appear on the Blog tab of your profile. The official InterlinedList blog is at /blog.
Publishing a document
- Open the document in Documents.
- Choose Publish.
- Fill in the details:
- Address: the end of the post's web address,
/@handle/blog/…. Use lowercase letters, numbers and hyphens. Each of your posts needs its own address. - Excerpt: up to 500 characters, shown on the blog index, in feeds and in link previews.
- Tags: up to 10, separated by commas.
- Publish at: leave it empty to publish now, or pick a date and time to schedule the post.
- Hero image: an optional image at the top of the post, with alt text.
- Address: the end of the post's web address,
- Choose Publish (or Schedule).
Only the document's owner can publish it, and you need a verified email address. Publishing makes the document public. In Documents, published posts carry a Blog badge.
Announcing a post
Tick Post an announcement message to post a message about the new post on your timeline. Tick Cross-post the announcement to my connected accounts to send that message to your connected networks too. See Cross-posting.
Scheduling a post
Set Publish at to a future time and choose Schedule. The post goes live at that time on its own. Until then, it isn't on your blog.
Changing or unpublishing a post
On a published document, the button reads Blog post. Choose it to open Blog post settings. You can change the address, excerpt, tags, schedule or hero image and choose Update.
Unpublish takes the post off your blog and cancels any schedule. The document itself stays as it is.
