  I just wanted to know how to add a blog post to a certain page. For example if I didn’t want the blog on my homepage, but wanted it in another page created how do I go about doing that? I know I can add a hyperlink to my page to click on and it can take you to a blog post but I want the actual blog up there and not just a link if possible.

  Thank you!

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

  Hi @telishacannon77,

  It’s possible to display your site’s latests posts on a completely different page of your site than you home page.

  To do that, the first step is to publish a new page titled “Blog” and then navigate to the Static Front Page panel of the WordPress.com Customizer. From there, check the option to display “A static page” and then choose your newly published page as the “Posts page.” You’ll also need to set a page to be your site’s new front page. (These steps are further explained in this support documentation, which includes a handy video walkthrough.)

  If you wish to keep your latest posts on your front page but also have another page that contains a subset of posts, then you have the option of adding categories or tags to your custom menu.

  Assign a category or tag to any posts you wish to appear on one page, and then add that specific category or tag to your menu.

  Let me know if that helps you to achieve what you’re after!
