  I have been confused about creating a new page for the JHSNNJ website and about creating/placing the link to that new page. I did this incorrectly and overwrote existing pages by trying to copy/paste a link to make a new page. Bad judgment there. So I now need to reconstruct content from the lost pages. But maybe my lost pages are somewhere, saved automatically. So 2 questions: How to make and link new pages. And are my lost pages still there?

  Hi there,

  How to make and link new pages.

  Please take a look at our support doc on pages and how to set them up and connect them to each other:

  https://wordpress.com/support/pages/

  You can set up your menus for each of your pages:

  https://wordpress.com/support/menus/

  What were the name of the pages that you lost content to?

  And are my lost pages still there?

  You may be able to retrieve the content from those pages from the revision history:

  https://wordpress.com/support/editors/page-post-revisions/#viewing-revisions

  Let me know the name of the page and I’d be happy to assist you with this.

  Thanks,
