Moving blog posts to another blog page
-
I’m a super newbie at this blogging thing. So I just blogged away not thinking that I can’t move the blog post to the page it needs to be under. I have a page specific to consultations of Applied Zoopharmacognosy, and I am unable to move my posts regarding these consultations to the title the posts need to be under. Instead they are under the ‘HOME’ page. I really don’t want that as it confuses folks when they come to my blog not knowing what my blogging is about, and they see a plethora of information that literally makes no sense to them.
Somebody – anybody – please help with any suggestion on how in the world I am able to move a blog post from the ‘HOME’ page to another page.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

I keep going to the “home” page when I want to post a blog post under a page topic. How in the world do I create now posts under a specific topic (page).
I am doing a blog post about documenting my ducks called The Duck Chronicles and I am unable to post under that page. Every “new” post goes directly to the “home” page. I have no idea how to post a blog post under a page. A lot of my friends are looking forward to my daily posting of The Duck Chronicles, yet how can I give them daily posts when I can’t even get the silly post to go under that page???
Please, please somebody help me. I have tried the category thing by changing the category, to no avail. I am at a loss and don’t know what to do. Please help!

You’re on the right track by using categories. You need category pages and a custom menu:

Ok well it worked – sort of. I did everything on that link you provided, and still I have posts automatically going to the “home” page. I am at a loss as I have been trying EVERYTHING for so many hours. Please help me get my blogs to post on the right pages.
I have categories named Applied Zoopharmacognosy, as well as The Duck Chronicles. Yet still those designated posts are going directly to my “home” page. And I don’t want that! I have even tried “moving” them from the “menu” portion. Still nothing is working right. What am I missing, or what am I doing wrong???
Please for all the leftover unicorns and fairies left in this world someone HELP ME FIX THIS ISSUE I’M HAVING!!!!!!!!!

All blog posts will go to the blog posts page. You can’t change that.
But, the category pages technique will allow you to have menu items for categories that you assign to your posts and those posts in that category will also compile into a “page” for that category. https://en.support.wordpress.com/category-pages/view-all/.
Your custom menu will allow you show those category “pages” as a menu item.
https://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/If you think you will have other posts – create a category (and a menu item) for those – your Brain Dump or whatever category you want to label those musings.
You already have created a static page for your home page. So the issue remains, what do I do about my blog page menu item that shows all my blog posts? I would put it at the end of my menu and call it Post Archive or some such since it will compile together all of your posts. Or although it will compile int the background anyway, I think you can just keave it off of your menu.
