  I cannot figure out how to add posts to a specific page.

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

  If you are trying to put all of your posts on one page other than your home page here is what you do:

  1) create the new page for the blog posts. (for example, you might create a page with the title “Blog”.

  2) Go to the “reading” tab under the “settings” menu and under “Front Page Displays” choose “a static page”

  3) From the dropdown menu, choose which page you want to be your new front page, and then choose the page you created (“Blog” in the example” as the new location of your posts.

  I think you are indicating that you want to create a custom menu.

  Pages and posts http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/ are not the same but please read on.

  Among the most common misconceptions is that bloggers fail to understand is
  (1) there is only one page we can post to in any blog and
  (2) the static pages http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/ they create do not automatically update.

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

  By default the front page of the blog is the post that displays all posts in your blog. 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 organize posts by assigning categories to them. You can create a custom menu and add the dynamic categories pages into the custom menu.

  There are many common errors, misunderstandings and misconceptions when creating custom menus and there are some tweaks you can use to improve your custom menu as well.
