  I’ve wrote two pages however they do not display. I can’t see them can you?
  I can see them when I go into edit them.
  It’s driving me crazy!

  Thanks for any help.

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

  Are they published and public? They won’t show anywhere if they are drafts or private.

  Troubleshooting – My Pages aren’t appearing
  They must be public pages – not private – not draft.
  Public – The page will be visible to everyone.
  Protected – The page is protected with a password you set. Only people who have the password can view a protected page.
  Private – Pages are only visible to blog Editors and Administrators. Private pages are not visible in Reader, feeds, or in any search. A page can be private without being password protected.

  To edit the Page(s) and check visibility settings go to > Dashboard > Pages > All Pages and hover over the page title then click “edit” http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/edit-pages-screen/

  If you created a custom menu http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/ then you can add Pages to it
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/#adding-pages

  You can also have each Page you create automatically
  added to the custom menu.
  Appearance > Menu
  Menu Settings (bottom right corner)
  Auto add pages __ Automatically add new top-level pages to this menu.
  “save menu”

  If the pages are published and public, go to Appearance > Widgets and add the Pages widget.

  Oh my goodness! I’m struggling with this…. it’s just not working! Do you have time for a quick 5 min phone call? Just walk me through this first bit. You can call me on 01223 420920 and ask for Jenny!
  Or I can call you…

  Oh, all of the information you have provided I’ve followed and double checked. Thank you very much for the help!

  But if you look at my blog, you will see that only the first page is showing, I’ve written another two. They are both published and live. I can see them in my dashboard.

  It makes me want to give up!

  I appreciate all of your help, thanks so much.
