Display your posts on a page

The Content List is probably the most powerful tool to display regularly changing content. All dynamic content (Media) is displayed on your web site using the Content List feature. The Content List has many options on how to display the content and how to decide which content is displayed. 
It pulls media according to its settings and shows them in a list, the latest item on top. Any media type (blog posts, photos, news articles, real estate properties etc.) can be displayed through a content list.
One content list displays one media item (either blog posts or news articles or photos etc.) but you can put any amount of content lists onto a page. 

Go to the page on which you want to display a list of blog posts. Click on Edit Page. Change Layout or Add Feature. Drag the Content List feature from the left into the column where you want the list to be. Save. 

Now the list is on your page and you can set it to display your posts.

Set up your Content List

Which posts do you want to display here? A list of all published posts? Or only a particular topic? You can categorize your blog posts by using channels. Set up your categories (=channels), like “Press Releases”, “Upcoming Events”, “Testimonials” etc. Upload them all as posts and categorize them through the channels. In a Content List you can decide which category to show here.
Click Edit on the Content List and then on Content. Show Post is the default setting so you don’t have to do anything here. (If you wanted to show a list of images you would choose Show Photos.)

In these selected channels contains all channels you have set up. Select the one or the ones you want to display in this list. If you want all posts from all channels check Show All Channels.

You can display posts from a particular spot (if you use them when uploading posts) and select the spot in the From > Select Spot tab.

If you use tags in your posts and want to display posts with certain tags only you can enter the tags in the Tagged field.

These settings let you specify which posts to display. The location, channel and tags give you more power on categorizing and breaking down posts into very specific topics and display only those in a list.

Display Options

Once you have chosen which posts you want to display go to Settings to decide on how the list should look like.
There are lots of different display options and the best way to get familiarized with them is by just trying them out and clicking Preview to see how they look like.
Detailed List View does not show the full post but displays the information you choose from the right side (show title, show location etc.). Select the information you want to display.

Number of items to displays chooses how many posts you display in this list.

If you don’t want to start the list with the first post you can change that on the Start list on item Setting. 

By default the posts are displayed by date which means the latest if automatically added to the top. You can also display your list in alphabetical order if you choose Order by Title. If you have a regularly changing list of articles it is best to display them by date but a more general list of items, names or articles you can display them in alphabetical order.
Columns 1 means that your posts will be displayed in one column, one post below the other. Depending on what information you show you could set up two columns or even three.

Once you have a list of posts it might be the easiest to just try out different views by selecting one, changing a few settings and clicking Preview.
