This article explains how to create a blog home page in Stora, add blog articles, and make your blog easy for visitors to find.
Create your Blog Index page
First, you’ll create a Blog Index page that lists all your blog articles.
Go to Online Store in the sidebar.
Click Pages.
Click Add a Page.
Enter a title for your blog (for example, “Blog”).
In the Storefront URL field, enter your blog URL (for example, `blog`).
Add some initial content if you like.
Click Save.
⚠️ In the Storefront URL field, this must be without a leading forward slash.
Setting up blog articles
Now you can create your first blog article.
From Pages, click Add a Page again.
Enter the article title.
In the Storefront URL field, set the URL to `blog/your-article-name` (all lowercase, no spaces, use dashes to separate words).
Add your article content.
Click Save.
💡 You can come back and edit the article at any time.
Connecting your Blog Index with articles
Next, link your articles from the Blog Index so visitors can find them easily.
1. In Pages, find your new article and click the 3-dots and then View on Storefront to open it on your website.
2. In your browser, copy the article URL from the address bar.
3. Go back to Pages and click the Blog page to open it.
4. In the content editor, type the article name.
5. Highlight the article name and click Link.
6. Paste the article URL into the field that appears and click Link.
💡 (Optional) With the link still highlighted, click the TT button to style it as a title.
7. Click Save.
Finally, add your Blog Index to your header or footer
The last step is to make sure visitors can find your blog.
Go Online Store in the sidebar.
Under Header or Footer, click Add a Link.
Enter a name for the link (for example, “Blog”).
Enter the URL you gave your blog, including the leading forward slash (for example, `/blog`).
Click Create.
You now have a link directly to your blog. You can repeat this process for other types of content, too, such as FAQ pages or the storage options you offer.
