Setting up a blog in main menu

[Manuel Molina]

I would like to set up a blog in main menu, where only the community administrator can post articles.

I have been going back and forward to databases and pages, and dont seem to get it right. I know how to add something to the manin menu, but not to set up a page where I will be creating the blogs. I wan to name this section Top Stories.

Can anyone provide advice? I searched for this topic but couldnt find a discussion on this. Thank you.

Does this guide help you to create a page and set it up with your database?

Thank you Hatsu. I read it and created a page, and aded a database I created, but it doesn show the button to create a new article.

I created the page and added the database...

Then it shows like this....

 

 

And the publisher is inside articles....

 

I would like to have a blog just like ther Invision Community, where I can publish posts for the community to read.... for example:

Edit the articles database (Pages->Content->Databases->Edit icon) and change the "Use categories" selector to no. You would also want the "Database index" setting to "Show like articles"

This should get you closer to where you need to be.
