Blog within a blog

  Create another blog within a blog?
  I am running a 365 photography project and have set up a basic Tumblr feed / blog to do this and added a custom link from my current wordpress.com site to it. All well and good. However, as good as Tumblr is, there seems to be no way to get accurate Stats and data as I can with wordpress.

  To make life really simple, is there a way to add another blog page within my current blog? Or do I have to set up a completely new blog to do it? If I do, is there anyway to import what I have in Tumblr to WP.

  Looking for the simplest solution to keep both sites updated.

  Cheers

  Mick

  Pages are a form of content, like posts, and as such cannot contain posts.

  You could either keep one blog and use your categories and category archive pages for this, or you’re also welcome to create as many free WordPress.com blogs as you’d like.

  As for importing from Tumblr, please send an email to support@wordpress.com with your Tumblr details, and we’ll see if we can work something out.

  Hi Macmanx

  Thanks for your quick response. I have set up a new WP blog and incorporated it into my own existing blog by using custom links. Thought it was going to be harder than it was but really pleased with the outcome

  Thanks again

  Mick
