What's the Best Way to Edit a Blog Post Written Years Ago?

[bgromicko]

I'd like to edit some old blog posts that were written years ago. I can't seem to figure out how to efficiently jump to the old posts that I'd like to edit. Currently, the only way to get back there is to scroll through years of old posts. Any ideas?

Oh, gosh. I just figured it out!

Use the date of the blog and the archive app. 

In editing mode, drag/drop the blog "archive" app into the side area of the blog page. Then, in published mode, search for the title of your blog. Get the date of your old blog. Then go back into editing mode, click the date within the "archived" app, and tada! It'll be there to edit.

Thanks for updating us on your question, @bgromicko! Hopefully that should help anyone else who had the same concern.

I don't see an app called "archive." Any help is appreciated, as I'm trying to edit several blog posts that are two and three years old and would love an easier way to do that than scrolling back page by page through my blog's history.

It's now called "Blog Archives." Drag that over into your blog page. Hit publish. 

Go to your published website, search for the blog article that you're intending to edit, look at the article's date. 

Go back to your blog in edit mode, look at the Blog Archives, and click the date. That should help you find a blog post that was written years ago and you can now edit.

I don't see an app called Blog Archives, either.

I think that's because this is actually just the Archives element. When editing your blog page you should see that over on the left as an element you can add to the blog sidebar.
