  I was wondering how you add to the footer bit under the header ( I am not quite sure what the name of it is) as I want viewers of my page to be able to access posts easier and for them to be categorised.

  Thank you.

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

  You are referring to the menu bar and asking how to add items to it.

  Creating a custom menu
  Pages and posts http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/ are not the same.

  Pages (static) https://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/ and category pages (dynamic) https://en.support.wordpress.com/category-pages/ are not the same.

  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.
