Creating a title index page?

Hey everyone, I’ve made some progress on this and I’d love your feedback!

As of now, all Pro blogs have an archive page here: https://write.as/yourblog/archive/ – that is, just add /archive/ to your blog URL to access it (here’s an example).

Note: if you already have a post named archive, it isn’t gone – you’ll just need to add that extra / at the end to get to this automatic archive page.

Obviously this is still missing some kind of navigation for people to get to the page, so I’d like to know:

  • Are you okay with it living at the /archive/ URL, or would you like to customize the page slug? (Maybe you’d like to use index or “archive” in the same language as your blog.)

  • Would you like to be able to customize the archive page itself, e.g. by setting your own title and text around it?

  • Would you always want this link to live in your navigation bar?

  • If so, are you okay with it saying “Archive”, or would you want to customize this?

If you have any ideas, including how you’d incorporate this page into your blog today, please share! I’ll use this feedback to finish up this new feature.
