Use Entry for Blog, Podcast, and Video editorial posts.

Where Entry records appear

Website location Presentation
Homepage Entries carousel Card; newest OriginalCreationDate first, then creation date
Entries listing Paginated/filterable card grid
/entries/{entry-type}/{slug-or-id} Detail page with image header, publication date, author area, component body, and Related Materials
Staff profile Blogs tab Compact linked Entry row when related through AuthorStaff
Related Materials elsewhere Entry card

The homepage Blog, Podcast, and Video carousel showing three Entry cards with images, profile-coloured icon tiles, type labels, dates, titles, and summaries

Published Entry records become cards in the homepage carousel. Image, Title, and CardText provide the main content; OriginalCreationDate supplies the displayed date; EntryType supplies the label and icon; and Profile supplies the coloured square and image underlayer.

Entry type icons

EntryType determines the label and black icon displayed on each Entry card. Profile supplies the coloured square behind the icon and the card's associated section styling.

Strapi EntryType value Card icon Card label Detail URL segment
Blog Blog icon Blog /entries/blog/{slug-or-id}
Podcast Podcast icon Podcast /entries/podcast/{slug-or-id}
Video Video icon Video /entries/video/{slug-or-id}

The homepage Entries carousel, Entries listing, and Related Materials cards reuse these type icons. Changing EntryType also changes the public detail URL, so check existing links and add a URL Redirect when changing the type of published content.
