How to turn a Bear blog post into a page and add it to the nav bar

(Sorry for the pretty long title)

Recently someone asked me through email about how I create those pages on the navigation menu.

I thought it was a common enough problem that I decided to write a post about it.

Here's how to do it:

  1. On Dashboard, go to Posts, then choose a post you want to turn into a page.
  2. Upon reaching to the Post Editor, you will notice the first few lines of your post (before the __s). Those are headers, used to indicate things for your post like title, path name, tags, etc. It should look something like this:
title: I feel you
link: i-feel-you
published_date: 2022-12-23
tags: thoughts, post, now
___
  1. Now, at the last line of the header (just before the __s), enter this line into the headers:
is_page: true

This line will turn your post into a page, thus it will not appear on your Blogs section.

Now, your headers should look something like this:

title: I feel you
link: i-feel-you
published_date: 2022-12-23
tags: thoughts, post, now
is_page: true
___
  1. Hit Publish (if you dont already)
  2. Finally, go to Navigations (Nav) and add the page as a link into the editor.

And there you go!
