Adding
pages to your blog can be a great way to organize content - like ‘About
me’ or ‘Advertise’ sections. To make managing pages easier, we
redesigned the ‘Pages’ tab in the Blogger dashboard to make it look and
feel more like something you’re already familiar with: managing posts.
With the new design, you can:
- View important details about your pages like view count and comments
- Manage multiple pages at once with new selection tools
- Easily see whether pages are in draft, imported, or published states
Linking to your Pages
Managing
the Pages Widgets for your blog is now done through the Layout UI.
Multiple Pages Widgets can be added, if you want different pages linked
to from different areas of the layout.
- For a Horizontal list, add a Pages Widget under the Header (e.g. "Navigation Pages" below)
- For a Vertical list, add a Pages Widget to a side column (e.g. "External Pages" below)
Adding external links
To
add a link to a URL which is not one of your pages, when editing or
adding the Pages Widget, click '+ Add external link' at the top of the
'Pages to Show' list.
This will show a dialog where you can set the title and URL to add to the list.
Happy blogging!
