blog posts are not posting on category pages
-
I’m trying to post my categorized blog posts to my categorized pages, but the pages I’ve assigned as menu categories do not show the posts on those pages. Instead, those menu categories show the drop down menu of the blog posts. I need to link my blog posts that are categorized to the category pages themselves. I cannot figure out how to do this.

Hi,
Allow me to first point out that your category pages themselves are displaying correctly. See for example the “Fitness” category page “Fitness” (https://thecrystalcoaster.com/category/fitness/).
I need to link my blog posts that are categorized to the category pages themselves.
The problem is that the relevant top-level menu items link to static pages, all of which are empty, not the corresponding category pages. Interestingly, the sub-menu items “Spouse” and “Children” are correctly linked to category pages. So the fix is simply to replace the top-menu items in the custom menu with links to the appropriate category pages.
For example, the menu item “Fun & Freedom”(https://thecrystalcoaster.com/fun-freedom/) should be replaced with another item of the same name that links to the category page https://thecrystalcoaster.com/category/fun-freedom/.
Instead, those menu categories show the drop down menu of the blog posts.
You may either leave those menu items that link to posts as they are in the custom menu or remove them. Their presence doesn’t affect what displays in the category pages.
Relevant support pages and sections include:

Thank you so much. I was able to figure out how to remove the page and just keep categories. I didn’t realize I didn’t need a page until I walked through this problem more, with the help of your pointing out the examples that you did.
