How to manage blog posts in WordPress
We covered how to create a blog post in WordPress and now we will be going over how to manage blog posts within your WordPress dashboard.
Viewing your posts
To view a list of all of your posts, click “Posts” in the sidebar of your dashboard.
Clicking on a post title will take you to editing that post. When you hover over a row, you will also get more options for that item. We go over these these in our next video, “Quick Edits & Bulk Edits”.
There are two options on viewing all of your posts; using the “List View” or the “Excerpt View”. Toggling the Excerpt View on gives us a short bit of text on each post in the list. It’s helpful to use this view to remind you what a post was about at a glance.
Using filters
You can use the filters to show posts that match a certain criteria. You can set it to just a specific month to see only posts that were in that month. You can also use the next drop down to view posts from within only one category. By using a combination of these filters, you can also set it to show posts from just a certain date from within a specific category.

Very informative article about WordPress. I am a new on WordPress and want to host my first blog on Hostgator. Please let me know what should I do as well as if there any problem with hostgator service. Because I saw some webmaster don’t refer Hostgator for web hosting. Thanks for sharing powerful tips.
Hello Alysha, Thanks for stopping by and commenting here. I have never used Hostgator before so I can’t tell you if they are good or not. There are many great web hosts out there to use. I use GoDaddy to host my website and I love them. They have 24 top notch friendly and helpful customer service. I LOVE them!! I can get you 50% off if you would like to try their hosting service. Just let me know if I can help.
with lots of creativity and success,
