How to start a TFL blog

I've been thinking of starting a blog to keep photos of my limited variety of bakes in one place. Is this where I start? https://www.thefreshloaf.com/node/add/blog

Is "Title" where "Moe's Blog" goes? After it is set up, is there a choice to start a new topic within that blog? That appears to be how it works, just doublel-checking.

Curses, no edit to fix "doublel".

Yes; after clicking on "New Post" on the home page, you get a choice which includes creating a blog entry.  Everything else is about the same as for an ordinary Forum post, and the software creates a name for your blog.

No, not quite...

A blog post is no different to a forum post except that it will appear in the blog section of the site. Blogs can be can be found under the heading "Recent Blog Entries" on the front page or by going to http://www.thefreshloaf.com/blog/

The field marked "Title" in a new blog post is doing the same as the field marked "Subject" in a new forum post.

Your blog posts can be found here: https://www.thefreshloaf.com/blog/moe-c once you have made an entry.

Thanks Tom & Michael. I'll give it a go when I have something to say.
