Guidance for Blogging in 7.1

Hello, trying to create testimonial slider via summary block in 7.1, like I used to do in 7.0. I know that you've recently been working on the blog to make editing easier, but is there a guide for this new version> I see the style options, but where can I add category, tags, featured image, etc.?

One of SS's big strengths was making blogging easy for those who didn't want to do WordPress, so I hope that more advanced features are coming. But for now, can anyone help with the instructions, or give me a simple work-around? Maybe a plugin? TIA!

Hi @KariLivs,

I agree about blogging in 7.1... I'm hoping it continues to improve. For now, for all my clients with blogs I'm building in 7.0. 

But, to answer your slider question, this plugin from SQSP Themes (aff) works great in 7.1! Hope it is helpful for you.

@christyprice Thanks, Christy! I have that plugin but was hoping there was a client-friendly way to do this on sites. Another reason to stick with 7.0 for now 🙂
