2nd blog into 1st blog's page tab

    Hi. I have been using wordpress.com for a few years although I am not a very heavy duty user. Currently I have several different blogs set up for different purposes. One is personal, one is for music, one is for internet links, one for travel etc.

    It has gotten too messy and for readers it can get confusing so I would like to consolidate. I thought that I could use one blog and use the Pages feature for different catagories. Unfortunately it seems that pages can only be static and not dynamic (am i correct in this). So then i was wondering is there a way to embed the second blog into a page.

    in simpler terms. I have blog A and Blog B. Can i embed blog B in a “page” of Blog A ? this way i can still run the blogs seperately but also readers can just go to blog A and find the updated blog B in the tab.

    specifically I want to put this

    http://heliographic.wordpress.com/ (blog B)

    in the travel tab on heliopath.wordpress.com (blog A)

    otherwise is there a way to directly link the “page” tab to redirect to if embedding doesn’t work?

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    There is only one dynamic page in a blog for posts and we cannot post to more than that one page. But we can create the appearance that we have posted to more than one page. We organize our posts by assigning Categories to them. When we publish a post it automatically appears on the running page for posts and also on the dynamic Categories pages and Archives pages.

    A custom menu allows you to display Categories in tabs along the horizontal navigation where normally only Pages tabs are displayed. If you wish you can also include Pages and custom links in your custom menu as well.

    So then i was wondering is there a way to embed the second blog into a page.

    What you can do is create a custom link to Blog B in Blog A and include it in Blog A’s custom menu.

    Hey thanks for the speedy reply. I like the second idea about the link from the custom menu, will try it out and let you know how it goes.

    Thanks
