Blog posts are intended to be formative and used as a means for self-reflection.
Most of the resources in this e-portfolio are arranged in [Pages]. This entry is a [Post]. So DO NOT “edit” the page. Add a “new” post instead.
Some of the key differences between posts and pages are:
- Posts are timely content part of a series of posts in a blog. Pages are static documents which are not tied to the blog’s reverse chronological order of content
- Pages can be hierarchical, which means a page can have sub pages, for example a parent page titled “About us” can have a sub-page called “Our history”. On the other hand posts are not hierarchical.
- By default posts in WordPress can be sorted into taxonomies Categories and Tags. Pages do not have categories or tags
- WordPress posts are displayed in RSS feeds while Pages are excluded from feeds.
Posts are a great way to record short reflections on a particular topic. When you are ready to start adding posts to your ePortfolio delete this post and add your own.
