# Blog

> Learn how to use your blog

To activate or deactivate your blog, you can use the `blogEnabled` flag in the `appConfig.tsx` file.

```typescript tsx web/appConfig.tsx theme={null}
blog: {
  blogEnabled: true,
}
```

Disabling this will remove the blog from the navigation and the sitemap. It will also throw a 404 error when trying to access the blog page.

## Adding a new blog post

To add a new blog post, create a new entity in the `blog_posts` table in Supabase.

* The `title` field is used as the title and headline of the blog post.
* The `slug` field is used to generate the URL.
* The `language` field is used to filter the blog posts by language. Add the language code (e.g. `en` for English) to the field.
* The `description` field is used as the meta description of the blog post and is displayed below the title and in the blog overview.
* The `content` field is used as the content of the blog post. It supports markdown and code highlighting. Edit the `web/components/blog/mdx-content.tsx` file to customize the rendering.
* The `cover_image` field is used as the cover image of the blog post. It is displayed at the top of the blog content and in the blog overview.

<Tip>
  If there are no blog posts available in the chosen language, the blog page will display the english version as a fallback, displaying a notice.
