In this article, the author explains how to use the Publish block in WordPress to display articles on the homepage. The functionalities of the Publish block include saving drafts, previewing articles, setting post status, controlling post visibility, scheduling posts, deleting posts, and actually publishing posts. Different post statuses such as published, pending review, or draft can be selected. Visibility options include public, sticky to front page, password protected, or private. The article also discusses how to schedule a post for future publication. The details of the Publish section and its functions are thoroughly explained for better understanding.
In the previous article, I guided you on how to use Visual to compose an article. After composing an article, we need to understand the functions in the Publish block to be able to display the article on the homepage. I briefly touched on this section in the previous post, and today I will delve into it in detail.
Functions in the Publish Block:
- Save Draft: Temporarily save the article to the Draft folder to continue writing later.
- Preview: Preview the article.
- Status: Post status.
- Visibility: Show posts to others or not.
- Published immediately: Schedule post.

- Publish: Post.
Status:
When you select Edit, a list of statuses will be displayed:
- Published: Display posts on the home page.

- Draft: Draft, not displayed on the home page.
Visibility:
- Public: Visible to everyone.
