Adding a Book

The “Currently Reading” section displays the latest featured book on the homepage. You can list several books, but only the most recent one marked as “Featured” will be shown.

If no book is featured, the section disappears from the homepage — so it’s a simple way to control visibility.

1. Log in to WordPress

Go to the login page for the Think Wellbeing site and enter your username and password.

👉 If you’re unsure how to log in, see the Logging in guide.

2. Click “Add New Book”

In the left-hand menu, look for Currently Reading and click Add New.

3. Add your book details

• Title: Enter the book title followed by the author — for example,
  “The Book of Hope by Jane Goodall”.

  ℹ️ There’s no dedicated author field, so the full credit should go in the title.

• Main Text: Use the large text box to write a short review or summary of the book.

• Featured Image: This image will display next to the book summary on the homepage and in the full post. It’s best to use a high-quality book cover or relevant photo.

• Reading Flags: On the right-hand side, select the Featured checkbox under “Reading Flags” if you want this book to appear on the homepage.

Note

If you can’t see any of the options above, you might need to change from “Block” to “Article” in the right-hand sidebar menu.

4. Preview and publish

Use the Preview button at the top to see what the entry will look like.

When you’re ready, click Publish.

✨ The site will update automatically a few minutes after publishing.

5. Scheduled publishing (optional)

You can schedule a book to appear at a future date:

1. In the Publish box, click the date next to “Immediately”.
2. Choose the future date and time.
3. Click Schedule instead of Publish.

---

That’s it! The homepage will automatically show the latest book marked as “Featured”.

If nothing is featured, the section won’t appear — a helpful way to turn it off when not in use.
