I have another question. Using the Backlight theme there doesn't appear to be Previous or Next post navigation. What/where is the best way to add it?
Thanks

Two options I can see:
Create a child theme and add the functionality via code
https://codex.wordpress.org/Next_and_Previous_Links
Use a plugin specifically for the purpose. Search on something like "WordPress previous next post plugin"

The child theme approach gives you a central place to add other features like sharing links for social media, display of author name and creation date. This method will give you a fair chance not to interfere with future updates.
You have to create the child theme and put a subdirectory "template-parts" into the child theme directory. There you put a copy of the original Backlight Theme's file "./template-parts/content.php" that you can edit to fit your needs.

In the latest version you can enable adjacent post links in the Wordpress customizer which will give "Newer:" and "Older:" links on single posts.

Sure, go for the obvious solution. That's way too easy
