Article List Page

The Article List Page pulls together all articles with the same categories and/or tags and aggregates them on a page.

Note: You’ll need to create article content first, in order to have content display on the article list page.

For each article, the system displays:

  • An image thumbnail.
  • An article title linking to the full article page.
  • An article summary. 

Note: If you don't add a summary for each article, the Article List Page will display the article's first 100 words. Generally, that's too long for an attractive display. It's much better to provide a shorter blurb. Edit each article individually. Click the Summary tab. and enter a short, pithy summary of the article.
