Wix Blog: Displaying Different Blog Posts on Multiple Site Pages

3 min read
The Post List element lets you display different blog posts on different site pages. You can add a Post List element to any page and choose which blog categories to show on that page. For example, if you have a recipe blog, you might want to show your salad recipe blog posts on one page, and your dessert recipe blog posts on another.

This is a great way to drive traffic to your blog from other areas of your site and also highlight some new and interesting posts.

Step 1 | Set up your category

First, you need to set up your categories in your blog. Categories are a great way to add structure to your blog by grouping similar posts together. 

To set up your category:

  1. Go to Categories in your site's dashboard.
  2. Click New Category.
Creating a new category for your blog.
  1. Enter the label for your category under Category label. This label appears in your posts and blog menu. 
  2. (Optional) Edit the last part of the category's URL under Category URL slug. Learn more about updating the category URL slug. 
  3. Enter a title under Category title. This title also appears in search engine results and when you share the category page on social media.
  4. Enter a description under Category description. This description also appears in search engine results and when you share the category page on social media. 
  5. (Optional) Click the Add icon + under Category image to choose an image for the category. This image also appears when you share the category page on social media.
  6. Click Save. 

Step 2 | Assign blog posts to your category

Once you've set up a new category, you can start assigning your blog posts to the category in your dashboard. 

To assign posts to a category:

  1. Go to Published in your site's dashboard. 
  2. Click Edit next to the post that you want to assign to a category. 
  3. Click Categories.

  4. Click Blog. 
  5. Click Post List. 
  6. Select the Post List you want to use, or drag it to position it on the page.
  7. Click Publish. 

Step 4 | Select the category to display

Finally, select the category that you want to display posts from in your Post List. 

To select a category:
