Adding a simple post

Whenever you want to add content or carry out maintenance on your WordPress website, you have to start by logging in to the WordPress administration panel (wp-admin) of your site. To get to the admin panel, open https://yoursite.com/wp-admin in your web browser.

Remember that if you have installed WordPress in a subdirectory (for example, blog), then your URL has to include that subdirectory (for example, https://yoursite.com/blog/wp-admin).

From here, there are two ways to get to the screen that will allow you to add a new post:

  • Go to Posts | Add New from the main sidebar menu of the WordPress dashboard
  • Click on the + New button in the top bar of the WordPress dashboard and then on Post (refer to the following screenshot):

Once you get to the post creation panel, you'll see the main content editor. The next section explains how to use it.
