  I am using a custom menu with a static HOME page. All works fine. I now want to display the Posts on another page.

  With a theme’s default menu, the posts are displayed on the home page. When you goto Pages (in wp-admin) you cannot see this home page listed so I cannot figure out how to add the Posts to a static page.

  Any ideas? Blog is http://patabc.wordpress.com/

  Cheers.

  This has nothing to do with whether you use a custom menu or not. You’ve gone to Settings > Reading and selected your front page (from the first pulldown under “Front page displays > A static page”), but neglected to select a posts page (from the second pulldown).
