Blogworx — Blogging Platform

A multi-author blogging platform with separate tools for writers and administrators — from writing and publishing a post to safely deleting one.

Blogworx author dashboard listing posts with images, edit and view buttons, and delete icons, plus category and poll widgets. — Author dashboard. Every post has edit, view, and delete within reach, with categories and a poll alongside.

The need

Writers needed a simple way to create, edit, and manage their own posts, while administrators needed control over the platform’s branding, pages, and polls — without the two sets of tools getting in each other’s way.

Key workflows

01Authors see all their posts and act on each one from the dashboard.
02Write a post with a cover image, title, summary, rich-text content, attachments, and category.
03Delete a post only after an explicit confirmation.
04Administrators manage logo, footer links, static pages, and polls from one settings screen.

Design decisions

One form, in reading order: The editor follows the order a post is read — image, title, short description, content — with character counts on the short fields so limits are clear before publishing.
Make deletion deliberate: Deleting a post opens a confirmation that names the consequence and labels both choices plainly — “Yes, delete it!” and “No, cancel!” — while the page behind is dimmed.
Separate roles, shared layout: Authors and administrators get different tools built from the same header, sidebar, and card components, so switching roles never feels like a different product.
A mark that fits the product: I also designed the Blogworx logo — a “b” built from blocks and a circle — and used its red and blue throughout the interface.

Screens

Create post form with an image upload area, title and short description fields with character counts, a rich-text editor, attachments, and category selection. — Create post. Fields follow the order a reader sees them, with publish and go-back actions fixed to the side.

Delete confirmation dialog asking “Are you sure?” with “Yes, delete it!” and “No, cancel!” buttons over a dimmed post list. — Delete confirmation. A clear question, the consequence, and two plainly labelled choices before anything is removed.

Admin settings. Branding, footer links, static pages, and polls grouped into clearly separated sections.
