How to add blog pages?
-
Hi,
I want to know how to add blog pages rather than showing all my posts in one page.
I saw there is a reading setting in dashboard and I have set blog pages show at most 5 posts but it is not working.
I got 7 posts and they are still all shown in one page.
How to add more pages in my blog?Thanks in advance.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

This is not about the Reading page at all.
There is only one page in any blog that we can post to and by default it’s the front page of the blog. Though we cannot post to more than one page we can create the appearance we have done so. What’s critical is knowing that the static pages we blogger create will never automatically update. http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/ Only dynamic Categories pages will automatically update when we publish posts.
Below is an example of a static page URL. Study it closely and note that no static Page can automatically update.

Study it closely please and note that only dynamic category pages can automatically update.
http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/category/basic-blogging/Setting up a menu is easy as pie, provided you know the differences between Posts and Pages, and the differences between static Pages, (which will never automatically update) and dynamic Categories pages which will automatically update when you publish Posts with Categories assigned to them.

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.

What if I want to show my posts to several “pages” like this blog rather than let the visitors keep rolling down in my blog?
As it is a little bit annoying to roll down once I have like 100 posts.Hope there is some way to avoid this situation.
Thank in advance. -
Hi there, you do not need CSS to turn off the infinite scroll feature. See the following two links on how to turn it off and how to set the number of posts you wish to show on a page.

That’s a link to a category page, not a blog. If you use category page links then that’s what you get. In other words, the link tt gave you http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2010/06/30/posts-on-pages/ is the one with the answer. Read it again.
