  Hi! I’m trying to turn my blog into a portfolio, but still want to have a page of my blog posts. I made the portfolio page my homepage but now I can’t figure out how to have a blog post page. Any thoughts?

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

  Hi christinemelvin

  You can easily make your blog page. You just need to follow the following steps.

  First, create a new page with name blog.
  Second, add this page to menu.

  Now Steps to make this page as blog page

  1 Click on My sites
  2 Click on Customizer
  3 Click on Home Page Settings
  4 Select the static page checkbox
  5 You will get two options
  a) Homepage – here select your portfolio page (might be done before by you to make it as homepage)
  b) Post page – In this select your blog page, this will make all the post available to your blog page.

  To get more information on features and other things of your theme you can go to the link below:

  Hope this helps, feel free to ask if you have any doubts

  Thanks for helping out, shubhamgmath!

  Christine, if you need further help, just let us know. Before going into the Customizer you’ll need to create and publish a placeholder page called Blog. There’s a screenshot here as well:

  Set the Homepage

  Let us know if you get stuck at any step!
