1. One publishing day
CMS → Posts → Add new

→ Open the blog on the web → see the post (if the page is wired to the right data - AS10)
2. Glossary
| Term | Meaning | Where you see it |
|---|---|---|
| Posts | News / blog over time | CMS nav |
| Pages | Rarely changing content (About, Contact…) | Pages nav |
| Published | Visitors can see it (if security allows) | Post status |
| Draft | Internal only - visitors do not see it | Post status |
3. Steps
- Log into CMS → Posts → create new (use the button on screen).
- Fill title and body; pick a category if you have one.
- Choose Published when visitors should read it → Save with the form button.
- Open the blog on the site; if it is empty despite Published → see AS10.
- Do the same under Pages for fixed content.
4. Comparisons

- Notion publish: draft vs publish - close to Draft / Published.
5. Limits
You can

Not automatic
