Display posts on pages, like blogrolls.
-
Hi, I’m having a bit of trouble with twentyfourteen. I’ve never seen it done on 2014, but I would like to have people who view my website be able to click on the links in my menu, which would take them to a page where specific posts are displayed. Either displaying only posts with certain tags or in certain categories. I am able to do this on my premium theme, but I’m wondering if I can also do it on twenty fourteen.
For example, let’s say someone clicks on my “Hobbies” Link on my menu. This should take them to a separate page that displays all posts I’ve made and tagged as “Hobbies”. Is this possible under twenty fourteen? I know I can set one page to read as blogs, but I would like to set several of my pages to show one category of posts.
Any suggestions?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Pages and posts http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/ are not the same but please read on.
Among the most common misconceptions is that bloggers fail to understand is
(1) there is only one page we can post to in any blog and
(2) the static pages http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/ they create do not automatically update.Only the dynamic pages like Categories, Tags and Archives created by the software when we publish a post we that we have assigned Categories and Tags to will update automatically update with new posts.
By default the front page of the blog is the post that displays all posts in your blog. Though there is only one dynamic page in a blog for posts (not pages) http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/ and we cannot post to more than that one page, we can create the appearance that we have posted to more than one page.
We organize posts by assigning categories to them. You can create a custom menu and add the dynamic categories pages into the custom menu.

There are many common errors, misunderstandings and misconceptions when creating custom menus and there are some tweaks you can use to improve your custom menu as well.
