# Adding Content

## Adding a new docs page to an existing sidebar

1. Create the doc as a new markdown file in `/docs`, example `docs/newly-created-doc.md`:

```md
---
id: newly-created-doc
title: This Doc Needs To Be Edited
---

My new content here..
```

1. Refer to that doc's ID in an existing sidebar in `website/sidebar.json`:

```javascript
// Add newly-created-doc to the Getting Started category of docs
{
"docs": {
"Getting Started": [
"quick-start",
"newly-created-doc" // new doc here
],
...
},
...
}
```

For more information about adding new docs, click [here](https://docusaurus.io/docs/en/navigation)

## Adding a new blog post

1. Make sure there is a header link to your blog in `website/siteConfig.js`:

`website/siteConfig.js`
```javascript
headerLinks: [
...
{ blog: true, label: 'Blog' },
...
]
```

2. Create the blog post with the format `YYYY-MM-DD-My-Blog-Post-Title.md` in `website/blog`:

`website/blog/2018-05-21-New-Blog-Post.md`

```markdown
---
author: Frank Li
authorURL: https://twitter.com/foobarbaz
authorFBID: 503283835
title: New Blog Post
---

Lorem Ipsum...
```

## Adding items to your site's top navigation bar

1. Add links to docs, custom pages or external links by editing the headerLinks field of `website/siteConfig.js`:

`website/siteConfig.js`
```javascript
{
headerLinks: [
...
/* you can add docs */
{ doc: 'my-examples', label: 'Examples' },
/* you can add custom pages */
{ page: 'help', label: 'Help' },
/* you can add external links */
{ href: 'https://github.com/facebook/Docusaurus', label: 'GitHub' },
...
],
...
}
```

For more information about the navigation bar, click [here](https://docusaurus.io/docs/en/navigation)

## Adding custom pages

1. Docusaurus uses React components to build pages. The components are saved as .js files in `website/pages/en`:
1. If you want your page to show up in your navigation header, you will need to update `website/siteConfig.js` to add to the `headerLinks` element:

`website/siteConfig.js`
```javascript
{
headerLinks: [
...
{ page: 'my-new-custom-page', label: 'My New Custom Page' },
...
],
...
}
```

For more information about custom pages, click [here](https://docusaurus.io/docs/en/custom-pages).
