attributing posts to relevant pages
-
Hello
I have created a blog with several pages. I would like my posts to appear in certain relevant pages and not only on the home page. Is it possible to attribute post to pages?
For example a post about an exposition in Paris should ideally also appear in the page “Expositions” and not anlu on the home pageMy blog is http://peintureacawb.wordpress.com/
Thanks
Magda

Let’s start with this: you can’t post to more than one page on a blog. You can only create the appearance that you have done so.
This explains the differences between posts > http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/
Pages http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/ that we bloggers create are static ie. they do not automatically update with new content. Only dynamic pages which are automatically created by the software when we publish a post ie. categories, tags, archives pages will update.
There is only one dynamic page for posts that automatically updates in a blog and all posts will display on that page. There is no way to exclude posts from the main posts (blog) page. By default the front page of the blog will display your posts (not pages) in reverse chronological order, with the most recently published post on top. If you do not want all the posts to show on the front page, then you can create a static front page http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/
Though there is only one dynamic page in a blog for posts 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 created by the software into the custom menu. Note that until there is one published post in any category there is nothing that can be displayed on the dynamic categories pages
