Hi Katy! I hope you are well!
I haven't been online for some months and have gotten a bit rusty at this. Can you give me a few pointers on how to get my blog to appear in either the "All Blog Posts" or at least the "Featured Blog Posts" or "Latest Blog Posts?" I have tried everything I could figure out on my own and am not getting anywhere. Any advice or instructions you could give would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
