  I’ve gone through many-a-tutorial on this creating pages & posts… but I’m stuck here:

  I have gone to my Reading Settings> Static Page. I have chosen my static page as ‘Welcome’ & Post Page as ‘Blog’

  What shows up on my live page is:
  1) ‘Welcome’ shows as ‘Home’ on the Menu Bar
  2) ‘Blog’ page is reading ‘not found’

  So…
  1) How do I change the text to ‘Welcome’ in the Menu Bar?
  2) How to I have my Blog show up with posts?

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

  Not to worry. By default your home page displays all your posts and you have not published any posts. The 404 (page not found) error message on the Blog page of your blog appeared because you deleted the placeholder Hello World post. http://en.support.wordpress.com/not-found/ Don’t worry about it because as soon as you publish a post, not a page it will disappear. http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/
