  Hi,

  Can anyone help me with this problem? I want to add a menu item, under a primary menu, to the blog page section of my site. We have one blog post, but I don’t want to just link to that. I’d like to link to the latest blog, regardless of when it’s been updated, instead of having to edit the menu url each time a blog post has been published

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

  Hi,

  When you follow these steps:
  1. Go to My Site(s) → Customize(Beside the Themes option) or just click here: https://wordpress.com/customize/. This will open the site Customizer.
  2. On the sidebar of the Customizer, click on Static Front Page tab.
  3. From the Posts page dropdown menu select Blog page.
  4. Finally click Save & Publish.

  You get a page titled “Blog” where all the blog posts are displayed. The posts are published such that the latest post will be on top by default.

  – best,

  Hi,

  Thanks for your response; but it’s not quite what I’m looking for.

  The site itself is to operate as an ordinary website, that has a blog section. What I want to do is from within the menu, create a sub menu option that takes you to the blog section. But all I seem to be able to do is link to individual blogs (then from there you get to see the widget with the latest blog posts)

  Could you please post your website link, so we (forum members) can have a look, that will help us to reply in the specific context.

  – best,
