I'm not fully sure how page templates and routing works still 😕 but I changed my local development routes file to this and added a guestblog page. My thinking right now is to have a small paragraph at the top of the blog page which contains a link to the guestblog page.

what do you think of using tags to mark guest posts and having them mixed in with the rest of them? I don’t know if we got much detail from people about what they want to see here 😞

re the routes file, if you replace .content-overrides/routes.yaml with your changes it’ll be installed in the preview deployment and also lets us make sure we have the routes stored in source control vs the weird unversioned way they’re stored on the production server 🤓

Yeah, I think making use of tags would be a good idea. I should clarify that the guesblog page I made is just a page that just has information on how to submit a guestblog. It's basically the same as the page template but uses a smaller font. You know, now that I think about it, we could probably just make a blog post about that information, and link to the blog post in a paragraph at the top of the blog page.

Edit - The blog page before used the index file and would only display posts and not use the page-blog file. Now it uses the page-blog file and can have user editable text at the top like donate, home and resource page. Although for some reason I can't get pagination to work on it like it was in the index file.
