  All posts I make go to the frontpage, but I only want posts from 1 category on the frontpage. Can you help me with that? Or can I make one post important so it will be above all other posts? Thank U.

  Please give us a link to your blog, starting with http. Until we know where your blog is, we can’t really answer.

  Thank you.

  What you want is not directly possible at WordPress.com. You can make a static page your front page, but not a category page; they are dynamic. The only workaround would be to write a static page and on it put nothing but a link to the category page. This will, by the way, slaughter your ranking in search engines.

  To make one post always be on top, you have to keep editing the time stamp on it so that it always appears to be the newest post. This means after every single post, you have to go back and change the time on that post so it’s “newer.”
