Article / Blog post page
Note: In order to select a different template other than the default template on a blog post, that template must exist in the live published theme on your store. Therefore, in order to utilize the recipe template, you must purchase the theme and publish it, or create a template on your current live theme called "recipe".
There are two templates for an article/blog post that come with the theme: Default blog post and recipe. The only difference between them is that the recipe template has an extra section where you can add a recipe to an article. For details on how to do that, see the documentation for Article recipe. Everything on this page applies to both template. Here's an example of an article.
The article will automatically show pagination to previous and next articles if they exist, and it will also show article comments if they are enabled in the Shopify admin.
