 Categories collect together sub-themes of the
main topic.
- make the subject more manageable
- make it easier to find similar content
Posts > Categories otherwise Uncategorized
Don’t forget about parent category

5. Tags
 Tags are like terms in a book index – they help
to find precise information that might be in
different posts.
 Cooking Example
Spaghetti Bolognese- in the Italian Food
category
+ tags: pasta, spaghetti, meat dishes.

6. Posts VS Pages
 POSTS are meant to be displayed in
chronological order. They have all the blog
attributes like categories and tags.
 PAGES are intended for content that wouldn’t
make sense as a blog post. About, Contact
Page, privacy policies etc. PAGES > Add New

 1. Publish a page
 2. Create a sub-page, use the Page Attributes
panel select Parent
