  Before I begin, apologies in advance for what might seem some very stupid questions. I am definitely a tech luddite!!

  I’m trying to add my social media buttons to the footer on my site, but not sure how to and scared to experiment in case I ruin the menu in my header. Any help much appreciated.

  And I also wonder how i get my blog posts to appear in the header menu like the rest of the pages??

  Im using Lodestar (good wrok developers) and my site can be found here http://www.robster38.wordpress.com

  All help very much appreciated. Ad finally, I salute all those that make WordPress what it is. Great job and for someone looking for real simplicity and value for money, WordPress.com cannot be beaten in my opinion.

  Thanks in advance for any help

  Rob

  A video tutorial that walks you through adding social menu links canbe found at: https://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/social-links-menu/

  You can create a new page called ” blog” (or anything else). Then set that as the “posts page” in the customizer..

  That page will then display your latest posts. Once you’ve done that, you can create a link to it in your menu.
