Understanding the Different Post Options in Toocheke

When you first start creating comics or manga in Toocheke, you might notice there are two main types of post options: Comic Posts and Manga Posts.

If you’re unsure which one to use, don’t worry — this guide will help you understand the differences and choose the best option for your project.

🎨 1. Comic Posts

Comic Posts are perfect if you publish:

• A traditional webcomic or comic strip (like newspaper-style comics)
• A long-form comic that you update one page at a time

Each comic post represents a single page or update, which makes it easy for readers to follow your story chronologically.

📁 Main Menu Options

You can manage all your comic posts from the WordPress dashboard under the Toocheke menu:

• Toocheke → All Comics / Add New Comic – view or create comic posts
• Toocheke → Comics Hub – access additional tools for organizing your comic world:
  • Comic Collections – group comics by storyline or theme
  • Comic Chapters – organize long stories into separate chapters
  • Comic Tags – tag related comics for easier discovery
  • Comic Locations – tag scenes by their setting or location
  • Comic Characters – tag posts by the characters appearing in them

These features make it easy to structure your story universe and help readers explore related content.

📚 Managing Comic Series

If you’re hosting multiple comic series on your site, Toocheke also includes Series management options:

• Toocheke → All Series / Add New Series – create and manage different comic series
• Series Hub – includes:
  • Series Genres – categorize your series by genre (e.g., Fantasy, Drama)
  • Series Tags – group similar series under shared themes

Each series automatically gets its own landing page and navigation system, so readers can browse pages within that series.

📖 2. Manga Posts

Manga Posts are best for creators who publish comics in a serialized format — similar to how manga or comic books are released.

Use Manga Posts if your work is organized like this:

• Series → Volume → Chapter

This format works perfectly for:

• Manga
• American-style comic books
• Graphic novel series

Each post typically includes multiple pages in a print-style reader layout, letting your audience swipe or click through full chapters or issues.

📁 Main Menu Options

You can manage your manga structure from the WordPress dashboard under Toocheke → Manga Hub:

• All / Add New Manga Series – manage manga series titles
• All / Add New Manga Volume – organize volumes within a series
• All / Add New Manga Chapter – publish chapters under each volume
• Manga Hub – also includes:
  • Publisher and Genre options to help categorize your manga series.

💡 Choosing the Right Option

The best choice depends on your comic’s style, update frequency, and reader experience goals:

If your updates include full chapters or multiple pages, Manga Posts will likely be the better fit — they provide a smoother, book-like reading experience.

🚀 Final Thoughts

Toocheke gives you the flexibility to structure your comics however you like — whether it’s one page per update or full chapters per release.

Start by experimenting with both post types to see which workflow feels best for you and your readers.
