You’ll see a Blog Archive Page setting with a page selector dropdown. Select the Blog page you just created.

To make the blog discoverable, add it to your header navigation, footer, or both. You can also add a Default Blog Posts section to any page (such as your homepage) by clicking + Add Section and selecting Default Blog Posts — this will automatically display your latest posts wherever you place it.
Create blog posts
Add a new post
Inside the blog editor, click Add New Post. Enter a title for your post and click Create. CoachIQ will open an automatic template you can build on.
Add your content and publish

Reuse a post layout (optional)
To keep a consistent visual style across posts, click Add New Post, give it a title, and click Create. Remove all the default sections, then click + Add Section, navigate to a previous post, and copy the sections over. This lets you match the layout of an existing post without rebuilding it from scratch.

Featured images appear in the blog archive alongside each post title. Once you have a few images set, the archive displays in a three-column grid.Open Post Settings for each post
In the blog editor, open the post you want to update. Click Post Settings (typically in the top toolbar or sidebar).
Common questions
Why is the blog separate from my other pages?
Why is the blog separate from my other pages?
The blog editor manages posts as individual content pieces that feed into the archive automatically. Regular pages (like About or Services) are managed separately because they have a fixed place in your site structure, while blog posts are meant to grow over time and be listed together.
How do visitors find my blog?
How do visitors find my blog?
Add the Blog page to your header navigation, footer navigation, or both. You can also embed a Default Blog Posts section on any page (like your homepage) so recent posts are always visible without visitors having to navigate away.
Can I use the same visual layout for every post?
Can I use the same visual layout for every post?
Yes. Create your first post with the layout you want, then for each new post: click Add New Post, remove the default sections, click + Add Section, select your existing post, and copy the sections over.
