  I want a series of buttons under the Header which the reader can click on, like Italy, Spain, Greece etc. but how do I put them there.

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

  You create Categories with those words, assign them to relevant posts and when you do that they will display on the dynamic Categories page. The next step is to create a custom menu and add the dynamic Categories pages into the custom menu and order them the way you want them to appear.

  Below is an example of a static page URL.
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/

  Study it closely and note that no static Page can automatically update.

  Below is an example of a category URL.
  Study it closely please and note that only dynamic category pages can automatically update.

  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.

  OK, once more unto the breach …. I will give it another try. I don’t know why I can’t grasp this. I have watched the video and read the feature but somehow it’s not working for me.

  I have somehow managed to put an article on the About Me page, but the article should be under a button for Italy but this isn’t appearing despite my efforts.

  Must try harder. But thanks for your help.
