Blog

Beamly lets you publish your posts and/or a blog, powered by a modern editor that's built for publishers and creators. You can easily create unlimited articles/posts, and display them all on their own pages along with a main blog index page that displays all posts.

To start writing a new post, simply go into the Posts section in the sidebar.

This page contains a list with all of your posts, and you can create new posts, edit existing ones, or delete others as needed.

When you first create a new post you will need to set up the post title (at the top of the page), and add content. Additionally, there are a bunch of additional settings available in the sidebar.

Each blog post also contain an "Excerpt" field. This is used as the short description that is shown on blog index pages. If you don't set up a custom excerpt, a short description would be generated based on the post content, but setting the excerpts manually adds a nice touch in case you prefer more specific descriptions.

SEO settings

You can adjust the post's SEO info via the sidebar.

Blog index page

Your site automatically creates a "Blog" page to show all of your blog posts. You can access this page under the "/blog" URL of your site, for example: https://your-site.com/blog/

You can easily edit that directly via your "Pages" section of the dashboard. If needed, you can even change the page title, URL, or add more content before/after the list of posts. You can add the "Posts" widget (a list or grid of blog posts) onto any page.

Scheduling blog posts (and publish on a future date)

You can easily modify the dates set for each blog post within the post edit screen (in the post sidebar). If you want to set a future date, and schedule the blog post to be automatically published on that exact date and time, it's easy to do with the same date-picker.
