By default, each blog post in your blog feed links to its own template-based page. If you want more flexibility, you can unlink that template and connect the blog feed item to a different page on your website or to an external URL.

This is useful if you want to create a fully custom page, add extra media, or link to content hosted elsewhere.

Note: If you plan to link to a new page on your site, create that page first before continuing.

1. In the left sidebar menu, go to website Website > pages Pages.

2. Select the page with your blog posts, then scroll to Collection.

3. Click Add new blog post or select an existing one you want to update.

Tip: You can leave the Body field of your blog post empty since it will not be used. 

4. Scroll to templates Template and click Unlink.

5. Click Disconnect to remove the default blog post template.

6. A new Link field will appear. Scroll up, then click the plussign plus icon.
