Thanks!

Hello. It seems I bit off more than I could chew for now with this issue. I see it is not one of those that everyone can work on simultaneously so I feel bad occupying it while someone else might solve it faster and better. Maybe you can set it as available.

@AndrejaP thanks for the update!

@kgodey mam, I was having my semester exams. After going through the above issue I realized we have a well-built functionality for categorizing blogs so there will no much need for another such idea of categorization but what we can do/ improve is as you have suggested, in front of every blog we can also show the category it falls in.
So the user can navigate to that category or open the blog to read.
I would like to showcase what I have done.

Before

After

• It has the badge color theme color of CC.
  
• It has badge color as secondary color of Bootstrap.
  
• I have also experimented by keeping the categories on top for each blog.
  

All the category badges are clickable. (Contains link to that category).
If you like this idea then we can proceed or else I will try doing excatly as you have suggested.
Thank you.

hey @techievivek, I appreciate your initiative but this isn't what we're looking for. I don't think we need categories to be more visible on the blog entry list page.

A blog post series is not just another form of category, it's a specific way to denote multi-part blog posts. For example, all posts about a particular Google Summer of Code internship are part of a series. If you want to read the whole story of the project, you should be able to find the other posts in that series easily (while ignoring other GSoC projects and posts about that same project outside the GSoC period).

For example, see these examples of blog post series in WordPress:
https://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/docs/post-series/
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-post-series/
https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-post-series/
https://wordpress.org/plugins/organize-series/ (https://organizeseries.com/)

@kgodey I was not able to differentiate, Thank you, mam, for helping out, I will start working in the direction you suggested and I have understood the requirement well now.

@kgodey hello mam, i have created a PR with the detailed image explanation for every change, please have a look. ( I have created 2 random series and added random post under them just for proof of work and have reverted it while PR).
Thank you.

@kgodey hello mam, i have created new PR with the change you guided me.
1. For changing the position and removing whitespace before colon



2. All post for a given series under the post content

(There is one thing I can improve upon is I have hard-coded the URL for All series part if you can guide me how lektor works with URL it will be a great help as the documentation is poor and I didn't get it).
3. All series part

4. Admin Edit Area
