Hi Everyone:

I know that Blog Categories and Blog Archives show in the sidebar.

However, I want all my blog posts to show when I click a menu item called ‘Blog’. I do not want my blog on my home page.

I checked the Menus section and only see the option to add one or more categories. How do I add all posts categories as one menu item to the custom menu?

I am trying to simulate the Blog menu that I see on self-hosted WordPress sites.

Thanks

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

What you’ll want to do is set up a static front page and then create a link to your “posts” page in your menu. Here is the support page for setting up your front page:

Set the Homepage

Take a look through that page and let me know if you have any further questions. I’ll be happy to help.

Thanks rootjosh but I do not want it for my front page. I was hoping to have it show when I click a menu item.

I guess I will just have to use the sidebars although I was hoping for a more professional look.

A static front page would be a webpage that did not have blog posts on it. You would then designate another page to be the page that had your blog posts. For example, it could be http://tamarawilliamsvaservices.wordpress.com/blog

Then you could place a link labeled “blog” in your navigation menu that pointed to http://tamarawilliamsvaservices.wordpress.com/.

Does that make sense?

Hi, rootjosh:

I misunderstood what you meant. It works! Thank you very much.
