How to Add a Blog Archive Widget in PhotoBiz

Overview

A Blog Archive Widget allows you to display your blog posts by month and year on your PhotoBiz website. This gives visitors an easy way to browse older blog content and helps keep your blog organized.

This guide explains how to create a Blog Archive Widget from your Website Builder Settings. After the widget is created, it automatically appears at the bottom of each published blog post on your website.

A video guide is included at the beginning of this article if you prefer to watch the process before following the written steps.

Before You Begin

You must have published blog posts in your PhotoBiz Blog before a Blog Archive Widget can display archive links.

If your blog does not have published posts yet, create and publish your blog content first.

STEP ONE

This opens your Website Builder, where you can manage your website pages, content blocks, and website settings.

STEP TWO

Click SETTINGS at the top of your Website Builder.

The Settings section will open. This area includes the available Website Builder settings for your account.

STEP THREE

Click BLOG WIDGETS.

This opens the Blog Widgets area, where you can create and manage blog-related widgets for your website. This section will also show any existing blog widgets (Archive, Sign Up Form, or Tag Cloud) on your account and the option to display related posts below individual blog posts.

STEP FOUR

In the BLOG WIDGETS section, click the NEW WIDGET button.

This opens the widget setup options where you can choose the type of blog widget you want to create.

STEP FIVE

Select Blog Archive as the widget type.

The Blog Archive Widget organizes your published blog posts by date, allowing visitors to browse older posts by month and year.

STEP SIX

Enter a name in the Label field for your widget.

Use a clear name that helps you identify the widget, such as Archive, Blog Archive, Monthly Blog Archive, or Archive Widget.

The label is used at the top of the widget on your blog posts and also helps you recognize the widget inside your PhotoBiz account.

FINAL STEP

Click Create Widget to create your Blog Archive Widget.

After you click Create Widget, the Blog Archive Widget automatically appears at the bottom of each published blog post on your website. If you have Comments Enabled and Show Related Post is active on your account, the Blog Archive Widget appears below those sections and above your website footer similar to the screenshot below.

Helpful Notes

Blog Archive Widgets are useful when you want to make older blog posts easier to find. They work especially well for photographers who publish regular blog content, such as session highlights, announcements, promotions, educational posts, or seasonal updates.

A Blog Archive Widget helps visitors browse content by time period instead of searching through your blog manually.

Troubleshooting

I created the widget, but I do not see it on my blog posts.

Confirm that the widget was created successfully in the Blog Widgets section. The Blog Archive Widget appears at the bottom of each published blog post after it is created.

If you are viewing a blog post that does not have published archive content available yet, the widget may not display archive links.

Does creating the widget publish it to my website automatically?

Yes. After the Blog Archive Widget is created, it automatically appears at the bottom of each published blog post. There is no separate publish button in the PhotoBiz Website Builder.
