  Hi There, I’m wondering how I can add more buttons on my blog than just the ‘home’ option. I’ve gone through all the settings and can’t seem to find where. I’m looking to add different categories that I can put my blog posts with the corresponding theme under the correct ‘button’/category… I also can’t figure out how to move blog posts from the main page to another page.. :(

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

  Hey there,

  I’m wondering how I can add more buttons on my blog than just the ‘home’ option. I’ve gone through all the settings and can’t seem to find where.

  If you want to add more items to your menu:
  Go to My Sites > Design > Customize > Menus > Main Menu > Add items.

  I’m looking to add different categories that I can put my blog posts with the corresponding theme under the correct ‘button’/category…

  What I understand is you would like to have category as the menu item and have posts for those category displayed under that.
  If so, you would want to have is category pages and link it in your menu.

  A category page will display only the blog posts in the category that you designate.
  Once a category has been assigned to the post, and the post is published, edit the navigation menu to add the category page:

  1. Open the Customizer. (My Sites → Design → Customize)
  2. Go to Menus.
  3. Select the menu to edit.
  4. Click on Add Items.
  5. Select Categories.
  6. Click the Plus icon next to the Category you want to add.
  7. Click Publish to save the changes.

  I also can’t figure out how to move blog posts from the main page to another page

  What you want is a static home page and have a blog page for displayinh your posts. To do so,
  Go to My Sites > Design > Customize > Homepage Settings > Select “A static page” option, then choose your new page from the Homepage drop down.

  Check this link on how to create a static front page:

  Please write back if you have any questions.

  Thanks!
