Add New Health Practitioner Blog

These anchors will link TOC items to corresponding sections in the main content.

Step 7: Add Main Blog Content

Enter the main content using structured formatting:

  • Headings (H2, H3, H4)

  • Hyperlinks and images

Ensure each section heading includes the matching anchor ID so the Table of Contents scrolls correctly.

In the References section, add references as a numbered list, including source URLs where applicable.

  • Enter the Meta Title
  • Add Meta Keywords separated by commas

<script type="application/ld+json"></script> tag in the HCP Blog Schema field.


Step 13: Enter Image Alt Text

Enter the Image Alt Tag to improve accessibility and SEO.


Visibility and Attachments

Step 14: Configure Blog Visibility

Enable Material for Medical Expert if the blog should be visible only to logged-in users.

Leave it unchecked for public visibility.


Step 15–16: Upload Supporting PDF

Click Select PDF to Upload and choose:

  • An existing PDF from Select Files, or
  • Upload a new PDF from your device

Step 17: Save the Blog

After completing all required fields, click Save to create the HCP blog.


Edit or Delete HCP Blogs

Step 18: Edit or Delete Blog

After creation, you can:

  • Click Edit to update blog content
  • Use the Delete icon to remove single or multiple blogs

Step 19: Confirm Deletion

Confirm the deletion in the popup by clicking Delete.

Deleted blogs are permanently removed and cannot be restored.

Important Notes

  • If the content is available in a PDF file and it contains one or two pages, manually add the content in the blog format as we shown in each steps above. If the PDF has more than two pages, upload the PDF file directly, there is no need to add the content manually.
  • Upload images in WEBP format, ensure the image size is not too large, and do not use PNG, JPG, or JPEG files. If the image is in any of these formats, convert it to WEBP before uploading.
  • Upload the PDF file and ensure the file size is not too large. If the PDF is large, compress it to the maximum possible extent before uploading.

Summary

By using the HCP Blogs module, administrators can create, organize, optimize, and manage professional healthcare blogs with structured content, SEO settings, and controlled visibility, ensuring consistent, searchable, and high-quality HCP blog content across the platform.
