Frequently asked questions.
Where do I start writing?
Once activated, go to /write/ on your site (you must be logged in with permission to publish posts). You can also click “Write” in the admin toolbar.
Does it work with my theme?
Yes. The writing page is a self-contained full-screen experience, and published content is saved as standard WordPress block markup, so it displays with your theme like any other post.
