Adding post to a page
-
I have my pages set up with at least one post each. My site readurday.com , but how do I add more post to my pages?
I do giveaways and want them to be able to fine them on my giveaways page.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi,
Your menu items link to two different kinds of pages.
1. Your “Home” and “Giveaways” menu items link to category pages. Each Category Page will display all the posts assigned to that category. Add the “Giveaways” category to each post that you want to appear on the “Giveaways” category page.
2. Your “Library of the Month” and “Blog” menu items link to static pages. Posts will not automatically be displayed on a static page. You could display posts on a static page by adding shortcode to the content of the page, for example Display Posts Shortcode.
Your front page is set to display the latest posts. However, there is no link to it among the menu items.

Hi @readurday!
You could also set up Library of the Month as a category instead of a page if you’d like. Then you could add that category to your menu as you’ve done with the others and it would have the same layout and formatting :)
This would be good if you wanted to have your past libraries listed, instead of displaying just the current one and removing the older selections.

Thank you both for replying.
However, this is just wrong:
Some clicks readurday.com this is what they get.

I change one thing and it throws of everything else I have done. I don’t get it but I am glad finally someone from support finally gave advice other then searching help. that no matter what you put in shows the same 15 items including number 3 (delete your account.) Well one other e-mail saying watch tutorials that only explain how to make a post.
I need help.

Your “Giveaways” menu item still links to the category page of that title, https://readurday.com/category/giveaways/. Your front page is now the static page “Giveaways,” which displays the content of the page below its title. These two pages aren’t connected or related on the site.
If you goal is to display the category page on the front page, this can’t be done. However, depending upon the theme you are using (I can’t see it because of my browser settings) you might be able to approximate the look with shortcode in a static front page. Which theme are you using?
that no matter what you put in shows the same 15 items including number 3 (delete your account.)
Where do you see these 15 items?

There are some themes which are designed to display a grid of images on the blog page that link to the site’s posts. You might try some of the following, for example.
Themes with a grid-based or tiled format on the blog page or posts page, where each image in the grid or in the tile rows link to a corresponding individual post, include:

Regarding posting on a page, see the forum topics under the “posts on pages” tag. I’ve preferred to assign the tag “post in pages” to threads in which I respond on this topic. See, for example, the following topics: POST TO PAGES ISSUES, Add page with ability to include content, or How to post in pages?

I think this is what @readurday was finding when they were searching the support documents.
@readurday – it looks like you now have your home page showing your latest blog posts, and are using a Display Posts Shortcode on the page that “Giveaways” links to in your menu – is that the look you were going for?
You could also switch that back to the category page: https://readurday.com/category/giveaways/
if you prefer that layout :)
