‘k, thanks! ~ I am really bad w/computer stuff, and I tried to get it figured out yesterday..3 hours I spent & got nowhere!! ~ I’ll try again today & see if I can figure it out ~ Thank You!

I’m still having trouble! ~ I wrote out what I thot would be my “About Me” page, but I can’t figure out how to place it under the title of my blog ~ I just see my 2 blog posts, but nothing else ~ Yikes, I wish I could take a computer class or something to know how to do these things fast like all you guys!! ~ This little old lady is looking pretty dumb!!! How do I attach my “About Me” info so it goes onto my, I guess is it, Homepage where I type out my blog postings? ~ Sorry for being stupid!

You have successfully published that page. On most themes this would automatically produce a link to that page in the top menu. But the theme you have selected is trickier: it doesn’t display a top menu unless you create a custom menu yourself (in Appearance > Menus) and set it as your primary menu. For more details see this post of mine:

OOohhh….I had that thot that maybe the theme wouldn’t hold that page, but since I’m new @this, I wasn’t sure ~ Thank you so much for helping me with this ~ I was also afraid that if I used “custom” menu, it would cost me something. As long as it’s free, then I can go ahead & fix this up ! Shwoo!, a relief on this! ~ Thank You!
