När nya användare började använda WordPress hade många av dem liknande funderingar: Ska jag använda inlägg eller sidor för mitt innehåll?
Om du också kliar dig i huvudet över detta, oroa dig inte. Du är inte ensam om det. Det är en av de vanligaste frågorna vi får från nya WordPress-användare.
Vid första anblicken kan inlägg och sidor se likadana ut. Men de är faktiskt ganska olika, och att använda rätt kan göra din webbplats mycket bättre. I den här guiden förklarar vi vad inlägg och sidor är, hur de skiljer sig åt och när du ska använda dem.
Här är vad vi kommer att diskutera i vår artikel:
Vad är publicerade posts i WordPress?
Inläggslistor används för att skapa blogginnehåll, artiklar och annat content som listas på din blog page. De visas i omvänd kronologisk order så att det nyaste innehållet (dina senaste posts) visas högst upp i listan.
Om du använder WordPress som ett blogginlägg kommer du troligen att använda posts för majoriteten av innehållet på din website.
You can add and edit your WordPress posts by clicking the ”Posts” menu option in your dashpanel. Så här gillar du WordPress post editor.
Som standard kommer dina inlägg att listas från det mest aktuella till det minst aktuella. Med detta sagt kan du också använda WordPress verktyg för ” sticky post ” för att lyfta fram ett inlägg som du tycker att alla borde läsa.
Du kan också organisera dina inlägg baserat på kategorier och taggar, som är WordPress taxonomisystem. Det gör det lättare för besökarna att hitta relaterat innehåll och navigera på din webbplats på ett mer effektivt sätt.
Om du till exempel driver en matlagningsblogg kan du använda kategorier som aptitretare, huvudrätter och desserter och taggar som vegetariska, snabba måltider eller semesterrecept.
Blogginlägg är också avsedda att uppmuntra till konversationer. De har en inbyggd kommentarsfunktion som gör det möjligt för användare att kommentera ett visst ämne.
Som standard är kommentarer, pingbacks och trackbacks aktiverade.
Du hittar kommentarsfältet efter innehållet i blogginlägget. Å andra sidan kommer WordPress vanligtvis att inaktivera kommentarer på dina sidor.
WordPress-inlägg visar också metadata för inlägget. Denna information visas efter titeln på blogginlägget i enskilda inlägg och på din bloggsida.
Det visar vanligtvis publiceringsdatum, författarens namn, kategorier, taggar och mer. Du kan helt customize dina metadata för inlägg. För mer detaljer, se vår guide om hur du visar metadata för blogginlägg i WordPress themes.
Nu när du vet vad WordPress posts är, låt oss ta en titt på pages och hur de skiljer sig åt.
Vad är pages i WordPress?
Pages är statiska ”engångs” content types som gillar din About page, integritetspolicy, kontaktsida, och mer. Medan WordPress database lagrar sidans publiceringsdatum, är pages tidlösa enheter.
Till exempel har din About page inte ett datum då den löper ut. Visst, du kan gå tillbaka och updating det, men chansen är att du inte kommer att ha About page 2012, About page 2013, och så vidare.
Vi har alla typer av statiska sidor på WPBeginner, gillar vår homepage, start here page, About page, contact page, archive page, och customize pages gillar vår gratis business tools page.
Du kan lägga till och editera sidor i din WordPress adminpanel genom att clicka på alternativet ”Pages” i menyn.
Så här gillar du vyerna för page editor.
Pages är inte avsedda att vara sociala, så de har vanligtvis inte delningsknappar för sociala medier. Till exempel vill du förmodligen inte att visitorerna ska dela din page med integritetspolicy på Twitter.
Pages inkluderar inte heller comments. You don’t want users to comment on your contact form or terms of service page. Det finns ett alternativ för att aktivera comments. Det är dock inaktiverat som standard för dina WordPress pages.
Till skillnad från inlägg är sidor hierarkiska till sin natur. Du kan till exempel ha undersidor eller barnsidor inom en sida.
Du kan enkelt göra en sida till en undersida genom att välja en överordnad sida i avsnittet ”Sidattribut” när du redigerar en sida.
Dessutom kan du skapa helt egna WordPress-sidor med hjälp av ett drag-and-drop WordPress Page Builder-plugin. Detta gör att du kan använda andra sidlayouter än standardalternativet som tillhandahålls av WordPress.
För mer detaljer, se vår guide om hur du skapar en custom page i WordPress.
WordPress Pages vs. Posts (viktiga skillnader)
Ett post är avsett för content som du publicerar regelbundet, gillar blogginlägg och new artiklar. En page är avsedd för statiskt content som inte uppdateras lika ofta, gillar en homepage, en About page, en contact page och så vidare.
Här är några andra viktiga skillnader mellan posts och pages i WordPress:
- Posts är aktuella och pages är tidlösa.
- Du kan använda kategorier och taggar för att organisera posts, medan pages är hierarkiska och organiserade som child- och parent-sidor.
- Publicerade posts har en författare och ett publiceringsdatum, medan pages ej har det.
Trots dessa skillnader finns det vissa likheter mellan pages och posts i WordPress.
För det första används de båda för att publicera content. Du kan add to text, images, videoklipp, formulär och mer till både posts och pages. Det finns support för featured images på både pages och posts.
Du kan bygga en WordPress-webbplats utan att någonsin använda inlägg eller bloggfunktionerna i WordPress. Du kan också skapa en företagswebbplats med sidor och ett separat bloggavsnitt för dina nyheter, meddelanden och andra artiklar.
Posts vs. Pages: Vanliga frågor och svar (FAQ)
Följare är några av de vanligaste frågorna vi har hört från våra användare om posts vs. pages och hur man använder dem på rätt sätt i WordPress.
Hur många posts och/eller pages kan jag ha i WordPress?
Du kan ha hur många inlägg och/eller sidor du vill. Det finns ingen begränsning för hur många inlägg eller sidor som kan skapas.
Finns det några sökmotorsoptimering fördelar med posts jämfört med pages?
Inte helt och hållet. I allmänhet gillar search engines vintergrönt content som är organiserat och uppdaterat. Det finns också tools som AIOSEO som hjälper you att optimera både blogginlägg och pages så att de båda kan rankas på resultatsidorna i search engine.
All in all rekommenderar vi att du fokuserar dina ansträngningar på att göra din website användarvänlig och värdefull för din målgrupp. Om du vill veta mer kan du läsa vår ultimata guide till sökmotorsoptimering i WordPress för Beginner.
Är det samma sak att lägga till pages som att lägga till posts i WordPress?
Ja, menyn för att add pages och posts i WordPress är separerad, men processen för att skapa ett nytt post och en ny page är likartad.
För pages kan du gå till Pages ” Add New i WordPress admin area. Under tiden kan du skapa ett nytt post genom att gå till Posts ” Add New. Oavsett vilket kommer du att skickas till Gutenberg editor för att börja lägga till dina content block.
Vilka pages ska jag skapa på min website eller blogg?
Det beror på vilken typ av blogg eller WordPress site du gör. Men du kanske vill se vår lista över viktiga pages för alla websites.
Kan jag byta posts till pages och vice versa?
Många Beginner råkar av misstag add content till posts när de vill skapa pages. På samma sätt kan vissa new bloggare komma att save blogginlägg som pages.
Om du precis har börjat kan du enkelt fixa det med hjälp av pluginet Post Type Switcher. För mer detaljer, se vår guide om hur du byter post types i WordPress.
Finns det andra content types i WordPress än posts och pages?
Ja, det finns det. Dessa andra standard content types inkluderar attachments, revisioner och navigation menus. De används dock inte på samma sätt som posts och pages.
WordPress allow you också att skapa dina egna custom post types. Denna funktion används av tillägg för att skapa ytterligare content types i WordPress.
Om du till exempel run en online store med WooCommerce, då kommer du att se en ”Products” post type i din WordPress admin area.
För mer details, se vår Step-by-Step guide om hur man skapar custom post types i WordPress.

I believe I am correct in saying that you use pages here?
Surely most websites supporting a business or running as a business would be pages?
For a news site I can understand posts – but should these all be in one root folder or divided into years?
Do having years, just shout WordPress to anyone browsing?
WPBeginner Support says
We use posts for most of our content on this site and have a few pages. You do not need to worry about placing the posts into folders as posts are automatically set in chronological order.

Hello,
Thank you for this guide. I have made such ”mistake” on our business website that I have created my blog archive just as a normal page and same with our blog posts: pages instead of posts. As changing this would demand a lot of work, I’m probably not going to change this. Would you happen to know, how I can create an RSS feed for pages instead of posts?
WPBeginner Support says
To make swapping easier, you may want to try the recommended plugin in our article below:

I was wondering if the articles on wpbeginner are posts or pages as they have a page-like url but most features of a blog post. Also, many of the articles are often updated over time to keep the contents of the article up to date. How do you deal with those updates and making sure readers know about them? The reason I am asking is because I am also writing a list of articles with coding tips/tutorials and am wondering if I should write them as posts or pages on my wordpress site. I hope you can give me advice!
WPBeginner Support says
Hi,
We use posts to publish most of our articles.

Doesn’t that mean, we should always use Pages if we want a unique design for the mega content we are going to create?
Otherwise, post seems to have a lot of limitation of how the overall content visual to be structured.

I have to translate my content across multiple languages – so my current blog is being housed in pages vs posts. If I move my blog over to posts – can i translate that out?

Hi Stephanie,
You can translate your WordPress content by using a WordPress multilingual plugin.

Hello and thanks for the great site. I’ve been running some WP sites for a few years and I always come to WPBeginner for quality and concise information.
The sites I’ve built have been fine with static pages but one client (my wife) wants to add a blog to her martial arts site.
How do we make something that looks like the blog page on this site?
I understand how to create the post, and can add it to a menu, but do not know how to make a page with the chronological list of posts.
Is this a feature of the specific theme? I am using Genesis and Responsive.
Thanks again, I’m sure there’s an obvious solution that I’m overlooking.

Hi,
I have been using wordpress for web development for a while now. I am starting a new tutorial site in wordpress. I am confused in writing tutorials as pages or posts. Number of tutorials wil be huge. So should i publish tutorials as posts or pages.(please suggest me on this). And how do i include category name in permalink of pages
Suggestions will be highly appreciated.
Many Thanks
Riana says
I have a smiliar question. Waiting for this to be answered.
Seems like no one has answered you yet so I’ll make my own decision based on the article.
I would like each of my tutorials to be shared on social media and accept comments which would lead me to posts instead of pages.
However, my tutorials cover many different themes and I feel like having a category list to the side with 5 billion different links will be a bit much. I also don’t like that they will be time and date stamped because they really aren’t blog posts but permanent pages on my site that most likely will never be changed or replicated.
I guess I’ll just suck it up and go with posts.
Pogo says
I say definitely use posts, and I’m almost certain that you can fill pages with certain types of posts to categorize them using the hierarchy of pages.
Zachary says
Use a custom post type. Setup a custom post type for your Tutorials, specifically. That is the best setup, as it is clean and keeps your blog posts sepearate. Pages are absolutely inferior in this use case, and most use cases. A good plugin for this is CPT UI (free). That mixed with Advanced Custom Fields offers an incredible amount of customization and efficiency if used correctly.
As for the many category issue. I recommend reading some guides on categories/tags. Ideally, your categories should be few and broad, while your tags are many. With ACF you can create new ”category” type lists if needed, often not needed though.
You can also depend on sub-categories a lot. Having very broad parent categories, with their many child categories beneath. Show the user only the child categories for their selected main category and they won’t have a large list to deal with. When they see the initial tutorial page you show them the parent categories only. There are many ways of achieving a user-friendly design through this.
Susan Cunningham says
I’m building a website with more or less timeless content. Definitely not a blog with dates, etc.. So I could dispense with Posts altogether? I have put Pages on the top running menu bar. Each Page will have a bunch of sub-pages and those can have sub-pages (grandchild pages?). Which will also dictate the URLs, right? From the reply to the previous question, I gather the downside to that is that Pages can’t be labeled with categories? Downside of using Posts,however, is that they can’t be grouped and sub-grouped under a Page?
In the past few days I’ve been wondering if those general content descriptors on the menu bar should be categories instead of Pages. This reply to the previous question seems to point in that direction: ”Another way to do that is by creating templates for your categories.” But no … I’m going to have a mammoth informational/magazine type site and that would extremely limit the number of categories, seems to me. Maybe that wouldn’t matter if the number of tags was kept limited, however.
I’m not totally new to WordPress, since I use Wordpess.com for a simple personal portfolio type site. So category name(s) will appear–usually on the top left corner–of a post. But they won’t appear at all on a Page?
Whew! Sorry to sound so confusing. (Well, obviously, I’m confused!). Can you just answer the first question: Can I dispense with Posts altogether? What are the disadvantages and advantages of that?
I can’t be the first person with this question in mind. Thanks!
WPBeginner Support says
Hi Susan,
You can dispense posts altogether and use pages with child pages to organize your site’s structure. You can add categories and tags to pages, if you want.

Terry Yarham says
From my static home page, there are blog post categories in the menu across the top. Can I pin content to the top of the category archive page? Regular pinning isn’t working for that.
I have a lifestyle blog for my city. When someone goes to a category from the top menu (food, drink, shopping, etc.) I want them to see a short description (that will always be at the top), then see the blog posts that fall into that category as they scroll down.
Is there a way to do that? I’m using the Bento theme.
I’m game to change the categories across the top to pages so the content I want to always be seen would be there, but would I be able to get the posts to show up underneath?
Thanks for any help I can get.
WPBeginner Support says
Hey Terry,
There are multiple ways to do that. For example, you can add the content you want to be displayed as category descriptions. Another way to do that is by creating templates for your categories. You can add them by simply naming the file category-{category-slug}.php like category-news.php.

Bastian says
I wonder how to organize content like episode guides for a TV show (that has been broadcasted years ago) with a kind of scientific interpretation of it. I think it’s very much timeless content, since it’s no actual show anymore and I don’t want to have comments on it. It should be the definitive article on the net to the subject.
So, should I write my big episode guide with plot and interpretation as a page and just put a post on my blog like ”new episode guide for show – episode x season y” with a link to the page?
I have to admit it was hard to decide against a wiki because I don’t think I have timely content. But a blog seems to be more like a reflection of my personal opinion and more conversational and entertaining than a ”dry” wiki text.
WPBeginner Support says
Hi Bastian,
There are plenty of ways to organize this in WordPress. For example, you can Use categories for each season, and create a new post for each episode in that season.
You can use tags to assign different characters, topics, and themes that came up during that particular episode.
You can also create a custom post type.
Administratör
Bastian says
Thank you very much. Sounds interesting.
Somehow I think it just doesn’t feel right to use pages for articles. All the fine features like widgets, sharing etc. have to be added through plugins while posts have it all embedded. ATM I tend to use posts, because it just feels right. It feels like the way, WordPress should be used.
What I like on Pages in a strange way is, that all these distractions like widgets, sharing etc. are missing. The content area is wider (in my current theme), so for now: I start using posts but not sure if it will always stay this way. I will just have an open mind and keep experimenting. Time will tell.

I’m new to WP, have just started a WP site and have a top menu link ”Articles” which will link to a page listing all my articles (static content) with short descriptions of each and links to an individual page for each article.
The person hosting my site insists posts are the way to go rather than pages. I am used to using HTML for other sites and have no problem with building the links. I like the idea of being able to have my own descriptions and order for the articles list and fail to see the advantages of posts for this. Any insights?
If I used posts I belief I could assign them to an articles category to keep them together but could I then arrange them in my preferred order and write or change my own descriptions?

hi, i am developing a holiday site and using wordpress. i am having property style pages and then also looking at having category pages (hotels, cottages, campsites). i have been considering the following format:
property pages as custom post types
category pages with ability to insert category lists (so can format a little more)
i was just wondering as seo is absolutely critical for this project to work would i be better to do the property pages as ”pages” and if so is it possible to add any kind of taxonomy to a page so that i can pull them through to a category page?

What a great point! This is very much timeless or ”evergreen” content.
I suppose the main reason for publishing it as a Post is that the author wants us to share it! As I have just done on Twitter.

This is a useful and very clear post. But it doesn’t address the one issue about posts and pages that is really confusing me, as a WP newbie. If I wish to add products to a WP site, should they be added as Pages or Posts? In my case, the Products in question are books by various authors. If I list them as Posts then website visitors can use Categories to filter them by Author. However I cannot see how to add Author photo and biographical info to the same result page. And if I list then as Pages (so that I can have a section with Author photo and biographical note, etc, I cannot see how to generate and filter (through Categories) the results so that X Author’s page will show only X author’s books. I have even tried a number of dedicated book and ecommerce themes, but none of them seems to provide for what I thought would be a basic ingredient. Am I missing something? Thanks in any case for the good work!
