    Yes fantastic that has changed the url, but now I realise I actually need to change the navigation.

    If you look at https://www.rowanshospice.co.uk/blog/test-post-number-1-2/

    the navigation is “uncategorised > post name” not “blog > post name”. I don’t want the post to sit under “uncategorised”.
    It won’t let me not categorise a post. I just want the navigation to take me back to /blog. A cheat would be to call the category blog, but that still takes you back the horrible unformatted page as opposed to the blog homepage…

    and that’s a whole separate question about how i format these pages, as it doesn’t let you set the template for posts, only pages. It’s like i want a post attributes block, as i have with page attributes.

    Many thanks for any help.

    Hey Laura,

    I think it would be better if you could add a real menu to the blog page as opposed to using breadcrumbs. Breadcrumbs are specifically designed to (mostly) allow you to go back 1 step/level. This could be usefull if you want people to be able to return to a category like “education”, “health care”, “psychology” or anything like that, and as a result seeing all the posts in that category.

    If you just want them to return to the /blog/ part I think breadcrumbs are not the way to go and you would better add a seperate menu.
