  help please! All i want to do is be able to direct different posts to different pages, as any self respecting website can do. I understand this can be done by first creating catageories and then setting up the given page to reproduce posts from specific categories. CAN ANY ONE GIVE STEP BY STEP DIRECTIONS TO DO THIS?

  I belive this site is trying to explain how to do it:
  http://codex.wordpress.org/Pages#A_Page_of_Posts

  But directions such as “Save this to pageofposts.php and then assign PageofPosts as the Template when creating the action Page:” is utter nonsense to me. What is pageofposts.php? and how do i save to it?

  Any help, especially any help that includes step by step instructions would make me weep tears of joy

  Howdy,

  If you’re trying to make changes to a WordPress.com blog, you’ll want to stick to the support docs at http://support.wordpress.com

  This guide will help you assign categories to your posts:

  You can build a custom navigation menu by following this guide:
