Can't put a posts on two different pages
-
I am a bit confused. I just wrote a post and it appeared on the home page which I wanted. However, I have five items in the menu bar: Home, Features, Best & Worst, Reviews and Trailers. When I click on Features I want the post that I just posted to also appear on that page. So, how can I do this?
I have tried using the categories and tags items and used “Features” for both, but when I click on the Features page there is still no posts.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Pages are static and are for content that rarely changes. They sit outside of the blog structure and you cannot post to multiple pages in any blog. There is only one main page for posts in a blog and all posts will show on the main blog page. There is no way to exclude posts from the main posts (blog) page.
The front page of the blog by default 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 create a static front page for your site and a “blog” page for posts. If you choose Choice 1 static front page then you have to create two pages as I said above. After you do that you go to > Settings > Reading and make the designation change and click “save changes”. http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/
Creating a custom menu
What’s critical is:
(1) a clear comprehension of the differences between pages and posts > http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/
(2) a clear comprehension of the fact that there is only one dynamic page in a blog for posts and we cannot post to more than that one page. But we can create the appearance that we have posted to more than one page. We organize posts by assigning categories to them and until there is one published post in any category there is nothing that can be displayed.) You can create a custom menu and add the categories into the custom menu.

I want my posts to appear on the home page but I also want them to appear on the “Features page” so when a user clicks on “Features” they will only get the posts that are related to “Features”
