  If an author posts a new post, it is reflected on my homepage of the website. However, I dont want it to be reflected there. I want to put that post under a specific page. So please help me out.

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

  Hi there. Blog posts by default appear on your home page (main feed) in reverse chronological order. You cannot prevent posts from publishing on the main feed, but you can set up category pages that will only display posts that have a certain category assigned. You’ll need to create a custom menu in order to use category pages. See these articles for comprehensive instructions:

  To not have your main feed appear on the home page you’ll need to assign a static page as your home page. Instructions to do that here:

  You cannot assign a category page as your home page.

  P.S. If your site has multiple authors, you can create author pages in the same way, also in the Custom Menu.
