  How can I display posts on WordPress on my web page? I would like a “news” page on my web page which links to my wordpress blog, which shows all the posts.

  Is this possible?

  Thanks

  Kai

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

  The front page of the blog by default will display your posts (not pages) http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/ in reverse chronological order, with the most recently published post on top. Hence, to add anything to it requires publishing posts or creating a static front page.

  If you do not want all the posts to show on the front page, then you can create a static front page “Welcome” for your site and a “News” page for posts. After you do that you go to > Settings > Reading and make the designation change and click “save changes”.

  There are many common errors, misunderstanding and misconceptions when creating custom menus and you can read about them here > http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2011/12/19/custom-menus/

  However if what you mean is that your want to display your WordPress.com blog posts on a separate website then the website has to be equipped to draw from RSS feeds.

  Every wordpress blog has an RSS feed for posts (entries). This is the URL for the feed for your blog’s posts (entries):
  http://jciliverpool.wordpress.com/feed/

  If your website is NOT equipped to draw from RSS feeds then do be aware we do not provide support for that. We support only wordpress.COM free hosted blogs here. You need to get support form http://wordPress.org/support/

  Bottom line: You will have to write something in PHP or javascript to do that. Here are a couple options:
