Fashionopolism - Blogs and Blog posts

Shopify allows you to add multiple blogs to your store. Think of a blog as a magazine and the articles within that blog as it's pages. The blog page of your theme will show your articles in a chronological order - most recent first based on the published date of the article.

Blog section settings

The Blog section contains settings which control the appearance of its content.

  • Text
    Blogs do not have a description area within Shopify, optionally use this area to add some text content to your Blog page.
  • Show tag navigation
    Toggles visibility of a sub navigation in which all tags will be shown which when clicked filter to all articles with the selected tag.
  • Show published date
    Toggle the date the article was published.
  • Show author
    Toggles visibility of the article author.
  • Show tags
    Toggle the visibility of tags applied to the article which can be used to show a filtered view of other posts sharing the same tag.
  • Text Alignment 
    Aligns the text in the sidebar.
  • Border sidebar blocks
    Puts a border around sidebar blocks.

Blog sidebar blocks

The blog includes an optional sidebar which appears when blocks are added to the blog.

  • Profile
    Add text along with Rich text to show a bio of the author of blog posts in your store or for any other image with text purpose.
  • Product
    Select a product to be shown in the sidebar - great for gift cards or a subscription item.
  • Newsletter subscribe
    Capture email addresses for future email marketing.
  • Text
    Add some rich text highlighting links to content or just a welcome message.
  • Image
    Add an image. 
  • Menu
    Add a menu to your sidebar for quick navigation to key areas.

 

Tip: When creating Blog posts we recommend adding a featured image and using the excerpt input field, the excerpt will show on your blog page and acts as an introduction to the article.
