Can I make a Page or Menu Item for all posts of a specific tag?

    I would like to create menu items that contain all my posts under a specific tag. For example, I have tags for Product Design, Interaction Design, and Visual Design, so I’d like a menu items for each of those.

    FWIW, I’m using the Twenty Ten theme, which allows for 1 menu. My current menu items are a couple of Pages. So my question is either
    1) Can I create a page for all my posts under a a specific tag?
    or
    2) Can I create a menu item for all my posts under a specific tag?

    Thank you!

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

    BTW, I’m actually using Categories, not Tags, but I can use either.

    My comment here is focused on display of your Categories in the horizontal menu of your blog.

    Staff have provided this support documentation entry for those who want to structure their blog like a website which is what you want to do. > http://en.support.wordpress.com/using-wordpress-to-create-a-website/

    What’s critical is to understand when creating a website structure is the following:
    1. The differences between pages and posts > http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/

    2. There is only one dynamic page in a blog for posts and we cannot post to more than that one page. When we publish a post it automatically appears on the running page for posts and also on the Categories pages and Archives pages.

    3. We organize our posts by assigning Categories to them. Although 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 we have done so by creating a custom menu. In that custom menu you will be displaying Categories in tabs along the horizontal navigation to achieve what you want.

    These are the how-to instructions:

    1. You create a custom menu. http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/

    2. You add the Categories you want to display and arrange them in the order you want.

    3. Then you add and drop and drag the sub-categories below the appropriate Categories, and when you have everything arranged in the menu that you want you save the menu.

    4. Go to the “theme location” module at upper left on the menu page. Select your custom menu name from the pull-down labeled “primary location.” Click the save button in that module.
