Custom blog pages - you can create your own website here

Did you know that you can create custom pages in your blog?
Custom pages should be important pages about you and are special because they have a permanent link either in your blog menu or in your blog side bar under your name.

I have illustrated the process in the attachments below. Just
  • go to your Blog
  • click Blog Control Panel
  • click Blog Custom Pages
  • Enter the Title and Body of your custom page
  • Select the position of the link to your custom page (in this case side bar) and save
  • Go back to your blog and there is the link to your custom page in your side bar.

You can choose to put the links to your custom pages in your top blog menu bar, though the number of custom pages you can add to the menu bar will be limited by the width of the page.

The ability to create custom pages like this effectively means you can create your own basic website and I hope you will take advantage of this facility.
For normal blog entries you should continue to use the Post to your Blog link to create normal blog entries.

It's a shame I can't use it - I was going to transfer the overview of our store to a custom page, but it only allows 2500 words - I need 10,000! Would've been ideal too....
