adding posts to a heading on my menu bar
-
Maybe the Nishita theme doesn’t allow this , but my goal is to place all 31 photographic images posted over January under a menu heading of January, and then each specific month following.
I’m a newbie and am learning as I go, but can’t seem to find a way to add the posts that I’ve made. I can see how to add categories and pages etc. but not posts. If someone would be so kind to point me in the right direction to read further on this topic I’d be greatly appreciative.I’m also curious to know is there a way to show a thumbnails of each image next to a text line of the title of image,under that specific month.
Primarily my site is a “photo a day” and I’m trying to organize it so that it’s user friendly for effective viewing throughout the year.
thank you in advance,
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

We organize posts by assigning categories to them, and dynamic category pages automatically created by the software when we publish posts are not the same as static Pages that we bloggers create.
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.
We assign categories to posts. http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/categories/
Until we publish a post with a category assigned to it the relevant dynamic categories page will not have any data that it can display.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/

That is not possible without purchasing a Premium bundle of upgrades that contains the Custom design upgrade and allows you to undertake CSS editing, and I am not sure if it is possible even with that upgrade.
