How Do I Display Blog Posts From a Specific Category on the Homepage in SoCast Engage?

You can display blog posts from a specific category on your homepage by setting up a Blog List element. Here’s how:

Step 1: Assign Blog Posts to a Category

  • When creating or editing a blog post, make sure to set it to the blog category you want to feature on your homepage.

  • Example: assign your post to the Local News category.

Step 2: Add a Blog List to Your Homepage

  1. Go to Website > Pages > All Pages.

  2. Find your homepage (e.g., Home) and click Edit.

  3. Switch to the Backend Editor.

  4. Click the Add Element (plus icon), then search for Blog List.

  5. In the Blog List settings, set the Blog Category to the one you want to display (e.g., Local News).

  6. Save changes and update the page.

Step 3: Keep It Updated

  • Moving forward, whenever you want a blog post to appear in this section, assign it to the Local News category.

  • You can also add multiple Blog List sections to your homepage, each displaying a different category (e.g., Music News, Sports News).


If you need to change which category is displayed or adjust the homepage layout, please contact SoCast support for assistance.
