Adding already written posts to new pages?

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi! I would be so grateful if somebody would be able to help me add a few posts I have already written and published into some new pages I have set up? I am just wanting to tidy it up and make it look a bit more professional until I can spend money on a theme.

    The blog I need help with is jloublogsx.wordpress.com

    If you notice the bright pink colour i am also wanting to change that but am unsure how to do this as well!?

    The theme is am using is Sela.

    Thank you!
    Jess

    Hi Jess,

    I see you want to shift your blog posts distributed on different page. You can achieve this by creating category pages.

    Follow these steps to have Category Menus:
    – Go to My Sites > Settings > Writing > Category
    – Create a Category
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/categories/#adding-categories-via-the-site-settings
    – Go to My Sites > Themes > Customize > Menus
    – Select the Primary Menu
    – Click on Add Items
    – Select the Category
    – Click Save & Publish
    – Edit the published blog post and assign the category to it

    Now every time you add a post to that category it will be listed on that category page.

    Based on my understanding, I believe you wish to change the pink colour of Menu bar. There is no direct way of doing it. However, this can be achieved by CSS Customisation.
    The code snippet below will change the color of menu bar. You can alter the hex code as per your color preference.

    .main-navigation {
    background-color: #ccc;
    }

    To enable CSS Customiser you need to buy either of Premium or Business upgrade plan. Only these 2 plans offer Advanced Design Customisation feature.

    Hope this helps!

    Based on my understanding, I believe you wish to change the pink colour of Menu bar. There is no direct way of doing it.

    The background color of the primary navigation menu bar can be changed on a free site by clicking the Palettes button at Customize > Colors & Backgrounds > Background, and choosing from the six available palettes.

    …on the Sela theme, that is. Not on every theme.
