  When I publish a new piece, it replaces an old one on the page. I just don’t understand how to keep all my posts viewable.

  Hi there, typically posts will show up with the newest ones on top, and only so many at a time. That can help folks be able to load your site on a phone without any issues, for example.

  Could you send a link to the page that seems wrong, and send more details about what you’re expecting to see there?

  We may be able to make a recommendation.

  Hi. The link to the page in question is:

  https://noeggsnomilknoproblem587094386.wordpress.com/blog-2/

  Basically I was expecting to see the full list of everything I’ve uploaded, as opposed to just the latest 3 posts.

  Thanks.

  If you edit your page, and click on the “Blog Posts Block” you will see the block setting appear on the sidebar on the right. Please change the setting here to whatever number of posts you would like to show on this page.

  You can see what I see at this link: https://d.pr/i/lvvfCC

  Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have any more questions.

  My site has 3 pages: Home, Recipes & Blog.

  I want to add a “Blog Post” block to my “Blog” page, but it copies the block from my “Recipes” page rather than adding a new one.

  Sorry, you misunderstand me; I know how to create a post, I’m having trouble posting on a specific page.

  Pages are a form of content, like posts, so they cannot contain posts.

  Instead, I recommend utilizing your categories, as each has its own automatically generated archive, like https://noeggsnomilknoproblem587094386.wordpress.com/category/uncategorized/

  I don’t understand why I can add several posts on one page but not another.

  How do I categorise my posts?

  The main blog page is designed to be a listing of all of your posts, that’s how that operates.

  Beyond that though, you can’t specifically assign posts to other pages.

  Instead, if you categorize them https://wordpress.com/support/posts/categories/ they’ll appear on individual archives, like https://noeggsnomilknoproblem587094386.wordpress.com/category/uncategorized/

  So, instead of having a “Pizza” page that contains all of your pizza posts (which is not possible), you could have a “Pizza” category at https://noeggsnomilknoproblem587094386.wordpress.com/category/pizza/ which would contain all of your pizza posts.
