Creating a blog post

There are various ways to create a blog post:

Directly from inside Umbraco

• Expand the content tree to the 'Archive' node underneath the Articulate blog node
• Click the ellipses to show the Create dialog
• Select either Rich Text or Markdown format for creating the blog post

Using Live Writer

• When setting up Live Writer it will ask for the URL of your blog, just use the URL of the Articulate blog root node, enter your Umbraco username/password and it will automatically configure everything for you. From there you can just write a post in Live Writer and publish it when you are ready

Using Markdown from your browser (works great with mobile phones too!)

• Navigate to the markdown editor URL for your blog - this will be the Articulate blog root node URL with an appended "/a-new" path. For example if your Articulate blog root node's URL is "/blog" then the markdown editor URL will be "/blog/a-new"
• You can enter your post's name and content, take photos, attach images, select tags and categories and publish your post from this simple dialog
•
