Creating a Post

Step 1: Navigate to the post editor

browser action:navigate url:https://bearblog.dev/<subdomain>/dashboard/posts/new/

Step 2: Fill the editor

Bear Blog uses a plain text header format.

The editor fields are:

• div#header_content (contenteditable): attributes (one per line)
• textarea#body_content: Markdown body

Verified: use fill/type on those two fields, then click Publish (or Save as draft). No evaluate needed.

Header format:

title: Your Post Title
link: custom-slug
published_date: 2026-01-05 14:00
tags: tag1, tag2, tag3
make_discoverable: true
is_page: false
class_name: custom-css-class
meta_description: SEO description for the post
meta_image: https://example.com/image.jpg
lang: en
canonical_url: https://original-source.com/post
alias: alternative-url

Body format: Standard Markdown with extensions (see below).

The separator ___ (three underscores) is used in templates to separate header from body.

Step 3: Publish

Click the publish button or submit the form with publish: true.
