  I put two categories into my menu navigation but the posts I tagged as those categories are only showing up on the home page and not when you click the category from the menu bar. I clicked save menu and have double checked that that the posts are in the category but can’t seem to find the problem is anyone able to help? Thanks

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

  Hi! Your link to “Poems” actually leads to the category “poems-3” — meaning that somehow you ended up with multiple instances of the same tag/cat and wp numbers the consecutive ones. Change the tag in the menu link so it’s just http://ashleeann.com/category/poems/

  You should probably not have duplicate names in both tags and categories. Think of categories as being an overarching category with subcategories & tags as being sub-subcategories.

  BTW, you don’t need the “blog” link at all, since your “home” link brings the visitor back to your blog. :-)

  Note that you can also change tags to categories & vice versa. :-)
