  Hello I am trying to categorize my pages so that when you click on a page, the blog posts for that page will be there but I cannot figure it out…

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

  Hello
  There are two options to create pages that show blog posts from a particular category.

  1. Using the Display Posts Shortcode:
  i. Create a new page by following the steps given here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/
  ii. And then, use the display posts shorcode in that page to display posts from a particular category:

  [display-posts category="must-read" posts_per_page="-1" include_date="true" order="ASC" orderby="title"]

  More information about using the display posts shortcode can be found here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/display-posts-shortcode/

  2. Create Category Pages:
  Follow this official support guide to create Category pages that will pull posts from a particular category: https://en.support.wordpress.com/category-pages/

  NOTE: Please make sure you add categories to your blog posts to make these work. Guide for adding categories to a post can be found here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/categories/

  Hope this helps 🙂
