Set up the blog

From your first blog to a published post in just a few steps.

This guide takes you from setup to a finished blog in the shop in six steps. You do all steps in the administration under Catalogues → Blog.

The goal: a finished blog in the storefront

1. Create a blog

First create the blog itself – it is the frame for all content. Give it a name, a description and decide whether comments should be allowed. → Blogs

2. Create categories

Structure your content with categories (e.g. “Guides” and “News”) and assign them to the blog. Each post later belongs to exactly one category. → Categories

3. Create an author

Set up at least one author with a name, avatar and short biography – this gives your posts a face. → Authors

4. Write & publish a post

Write your first post: title, excerpt, featured image and text. Choose the author and category, optionally add tags, and set the status to Published (or schedule it for later). → Posts

5. Add it to the navigation

So that visitors find the blog, add it as a menu item in the main navigation. → Entry point in the navigation

6. View it in the shop

Open the blog in the storefront and check the overview and post page. You design the look and structure freely via the shopping experiences. → Blog overview · Post page

You determine the look of every blog page via the bundled layouts and the blog elements. You arrange these in the Shopware shopping-experience editor as usual.
