Blog Page Won't let me type anything

  • The new blog page won’t let me type anything. If you set it as your blog page in the Static Page setting you can’t add any text. It’s simply a page that has your latest posts in whatever order is set.

    Unfortunately, I like to write an intro paragraph above my posts and can’t now.

    I do hope that it’s changed back and that a paragraph block is returned to the blog page so I can write my introductory paragraph.

  • If you set it as your blog page in the Static Page setting you can’t add any text.

    that is because the blog page is uing the index template (index.php or home.php).

    to get the content of your page (which is set to be the ‘posts page’) show, you will need to edit this index.php or home.php and add a section like:

    <?php if( get_option( 'page_for_posts' ) ) {
$page_for_posts = get_post( get_option( 'page_for_posts' ) ); ?>
<div class="blog-page-content">
<?php echo apply_filters( 'the_content', $page_for_posts->post_content ); ?>
</div><!-- /.blog-page-content -->
<?php } ?>

    you might possibly need to adapt the html tags to match your theme…

    what theme are you using?

    I do hope that it’s changed back

    ? this has not been changed – it was always this way (at least for a long time … )
