  My main site: http://puckdrawn.wordpress.com/
  Page in question: http://puckdrawn.wordpress.com/concepts/

  I like how the main page is set up where I can do an entry each day, the new entry is given a title and date, with the ability to add tags, etc.

  However, I want to do the same sort of thing on my Concepts section. As it currently stands, I have one long page and I just keep adding to it.

  Is there a way that I can make my Concepts page act like my main page? Say I just want to have 5 entries before the previous entries go on a second, third, etc page.

  I hope that makes sense.

  Thanks,
  Johnny

  Was hoping there was some sort of workaround. I know the different between the Post and Page, but perhaps there was some code trickery that could do what i wanted to do. :) Thanks for the response.

  What about setting up a static front page?
  http://support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/
  On that static page, which readers would see first, put links to your categories: “Concepts” “general hockey design” “jerseys and jersey collections” and so on.
  In order for that to work, assign those categories to the appropriate posts. The links would be to the category archives like:
  http://YOUR_BLOG_NAME.wordpress.com/category/concepts/

  Or even simpler:
  Just add a categories widget and make posts about “IceHL’s St. Louis Archers,” “IHA Team logos,” “Icethetics IceHL league. Team: Kodiaks,” and so on. (note: I know nothing about sports games, but I hope you get the idea about categories?)
