How to Upload Photos to a Website Scrapbook Page in WordPress
I have my own personal scrapbook page on my website where I collect images that inspire me. It’s a great way to relive the memories that make you who you are today.
I have always loved photography and taking lots of pictures. It started as a hobby and then turned into a bit of a compulsion. I’ve been known to snap a thousand pictures a day when I was on holiday. My wife says I have an unhealthy obsession with photography. But I don’t mind because it’s all about me and my stories now.
The best thing about a personal scrapbook page is that you can add some personal touches to it. Maybe a picture of the person you love the most, a quote that means a lot to you, or anything that would make the page a little more unique to you. Personal touches can be a great way to make the page more of a work of art.
Create A WordPress Page
If you’re looking to add a personal scrapbook page to your blog, the first thing you should do is create a wordpress page for it. You can use this blog post as a starting point and continue from there. Just remember to replace the text with your own.
Upload Your Photos To The Page
After you have created your page, it’s time to upload your photos. Go to your page and click on the “Upload Photos” button to get started. You will see a pop up where you can choose your files.
You can either upload one image at a time or you can use the arrow buttons to navigate through your folders and upload all your photos at once. When you have uploaded all your photos, you can add more if you have them. You can choose to add a caption to each photo or not.
Start A Blog
If you’re looking to add more than one photo to your page, you can start a blog with a carousel of your images. Go back to your page and click on the small blog icon next to the photos to get started. A popup will appear where you can enter your blog’s details.
Now type a title for your blog and choose a template for the page from the options that appear. You can add up to three photos per post so you will have a total of twelve photos on your blog’s homepage. To add more photos, simply click on the “+ Add another photo” at the bottom of the template.
After you have built up a small library of photos on your blog, you can go back to your website and continue adding new content.
Add Additional Photos
If you have a larger library of photos you would like to add to your page, you can create a blog post and add it to your page’s feed. You can use the post’s content as a template for your new blog post.
Now that you have a blog post, it’s time to add additional photos from your library. Go back to your website’s dashboard and click on the “Reading” tab. From here, you can click on the “+ Add New Post” button to get started.
You will see a popup appear with your new blog’s details. Just put in a title for the article and you’re good to go. You can add as many as you want with this feature.
Style Your Own Blog
Once you have your blog set up with a nice selection of content, it’s time to start styling it. Go back to your dashboard and click on the “Appearance” tab. You will see a large box with your blog’s details at the top. Just drag the different elements from the box towards the middle to style the blog.
You can add as much or as little content as you want from this box so it’s a good place to start if you’re looking to add a bit of an editorial vibe to your blog. If you’re looking to create a more commercial blog, you can add additional blocks of content from the box on the left.
Use The Content In Different Ways
You can pull content from your blog in a number of different ways. You can use it on your website or social media platforms like Twitter or Facebook. You can even use it in email marketing campaigns if you’re sending out newsletters to your subscribers.
Basically, wherever you can think of that you might want to use your content, you can create a template for it using the methods discussed in this article.
Use This Content For Free
If you have additional content that you have created for your blog, such as an ebook, you can create a free e-book for your visitors! All you need to do is go back to your dashboard and click on the “+ Create Free Ebook” button. You will see a box where you can add a title and description for your free ebook. You can add up to four pictures of your own in the description field.
As you can see, this is a quick and easy way to generate some additional revenue from your blog if you’re looking to monetize it. You can direct your readers to the ebook from your site’s homepage or elsewhere on the web using a number of different marketing methods.
Make Sure You Link Back
One of the most important things to do if you want to make sure that your visitors know where they’re going and come back for more is to make sure that you link back to your website from wherever you use your content.
If you create a blog post or make a social media post with a link to your website, everyone will know exactly where they’re going and how to get there. Your customers will thank you for this and you will become more engaged with your content’s audience.
