I’m trying to set up a secondary blog for display within a hubL template. This article ([Blog templates - HubSpot docs](http://designers.hubspot.com/docs/tutorials/combining-multiple-sets-of-blog-posts-into-a-single-listing)) says that i can find the blog\_id from the dashboard, but it’s nowhere to be found. When I try to add the name of my blog to my code (anything but “default”) the blog doesn’t display. I can’t find a shorcode either.

Can anyone shed some light on this? I’d like to use something other than default here:

{% set posts = blog\_recent\_posts(‘default’, 3) %}

Thanks

It’s in the URL when on the blog admin page

It is no longer in the URL on the blog admin page. What is the new way to find it?
