My biggest complaint though, was something that must have been other blogger's complaints too because it has now been addressed!
Static Pages!
It was easy enough to start a blog, even give it a custom domain, and even host it on another platform, (such as Hostgator or GoDaddy) but without having static pages, you just couldn't make it into a website.
I don't know how long this option has been there (apparently I'm clueless!) but today when I went to make a new post I accidentally hit Edit Pages. What? What are pages? Are they what I think they are? YES! And, you can make up to 10 of them!
So, I immediately started transferring my Word Press blogs. It will take me a while to copy and paste all the posts and pages, but I'm doing it. And honestly, it won't take all that long. In about 20 minutes this morning I set up one at Mia Minerals And More. I'm not sure I love this template, it has some quirks I'm not digging, but I can always change that. And, I need to put it on my custom domain once I'm done transferring everything. But you can see an example of how a custom page will look by visiting the one I set up HERE.
It's really easy to add them too! You just click on >Posting, >Edit Pages, >New Page. Viola!
In the new blog, that I just set up, the pages are listed in the sidebar, but when you go to make your first new page, you can choose if you want them listed there or across the top. (under your header) That's another reason I will probably be changing this template. It didn't look right with them across the top - a glitch in the template - and I'd prefer them up there.
