Help Center
Short, practical answers to the questions readers and authors ask most. If a topic is not covered here, the Help Forum is staffed by long-time NewsBlogs.online users.
Get started
- Create your first blog and pick an address that is still free.
- Add a title, description and profile so readers know who is writing.
- Publish a test post, then delete it once the layout looks right.
Write and publish
- Use labels instead of separate blogs when you cover several topics.
- Schedule posts ahead by setting a future date in the post sidebar.
- Add alt text to every image so the post is readable without pictures.
Design and layout
- Themes are edited from Theme › Customise; the HTML editor keeps a backup of the previous version.
- Gadgets in the sidebar load after the post body, so keep them few.
Domains and addresses
- A custom domain needs two CNAME records at your registrar before it verifies.
- The old blogspot address keeps redirecting after the switch.
Account and access
- Each blog belongs to the NewsBlogs.online account that created it; add co-authors instead of sharing a password.
- Deleted blogs stay recoverable for 90 days from the NewsBlogs.online dashboard.
