  I’m trying to add menus to the primary navigation and it isn’t working. I’m utterly frustrated! How do I change the spacing on my blogs?

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

  Have you read your detailed theme description page at this think? http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/twentyfourteen/

  The menu is the whole bar when you are referring to a custom menu. The items in it are not separate menus.

  Please read this first Post vs. Page http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/

  (1) There is only one page we can post to in any blog.
  (2) The static pages http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/ we bloggers create do not automatically update.

  Only the dynamic pages like Archives, Categories and Tags created by the software when we publish a post will update automatically update with new posts.

  By default the front page of the blog is the Page that displays all posts in your blog. You can create a static front page and have your published posts display on another page http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/ but doing that does not change what follows.

  Though there is only one dynamic page in a blog for posts (not pages) http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/ and we cannot post to more than that one page, we can create the appearance that we have posted to more than one page.

  This guide will walk you through how to create category pages for your blog, to display groupings of similar posts on pages other than your front page. http://en.support.wordpress.com/category-pages/
