  I would like to add another page to my site that allows blog posts under a different category. So far if I go to customize and then into adding another page, it only provides me with the option to create an article (Such as the home page)

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

  Hey there,

  So you’ll want to set up category pages!

  First, you’ll want to make sure each post has been assigned a proper category in the editor for each post. That’s done in the area that looks like this: https://cloudup.com/cyDvBfTNAA0

  Then, you’ll want to make sure to add those corresponding category pages to the menu at Customize > Menus, making sure to choose from “Categories” instead of “Pages”: https://cloudup.com/cr0vnegkXD8

  That’ll have your posts head to the proper category page. Here are more details on the process above: https://en.support.wordpress.com/category-pages/

  Thank you!!! I had thought I needed another page, didn’t even consider categories! You’ve made my life much easier.
