- In the right side panel you should see options to assign your post to specific categories as well as add tags.
- Next, set a featured image for your post and assign a sidebar (optional).
- Under the Post Options box, choose whether or not you would like to include an author info box. See Example:
*Note All the author settings are found in the user settings of WordPress.
- Choose whether or not you would like to display a recent or similar posts carousel, and if so, set a title for your carousel.
- In the right side panel choose a format for your post, then update or publish the post.
