This is the default blog template. Here are the notes and steps to take to make the process of creating a new blog post as easy as possible. It is expected that these may change so please check here for any style updates.

• The post name and featured image are imported from the standard WordPress post editor. Do not edit the title or image source using the Divi editor.
• There are standard styles associated with blog post text content that can be used by changing the preset to ‘Blog Post’ in the text module. This is done to allow an easier copy/paste interaction when creating the post.
• The ideal featured image is landscape with the aspect ratio of 8:5. Using this ratio (or one at least close to this) will keep the blog feed looking consistent. Try to keep the file size low. The original image used for this template was 1280×800 and 1.36 MB.
• CTA modules will be available as premade rows to insert.

1. Once this template is loaded save the draft and go back to the WordPress editor and change the Divi page settings to match the following image. Post title can be set to hidden before coming here but the fullwidth option for page layout is not available prior to adding the template.
   
2. Before the next step it may be necessary to edit the post copy you have received. Ensure that headings are appropriately present, text formating and links have been added, and that unnessary line breaks have been removed.
3. Next either select the example text module and replace its contents with the copy proivided to you or create a new text module ensuring that the Blog Preset is selected.
4. Finally, include any CTAs that the post calls for. For middle of the page CTAs you will have to split the text content into separate rows with the CTA in between.
