Pages not visible to public
-
So I created two pages that cannot be seen from the public’s perspective. ‘Gallery’ and ‘Blog’. Within the admin of wordpress they say that they are published but when I go to my site, they are not visible. Am I missing something? Thanks for the help!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

The links behind the Gallery and Blog menu items are not quite what they should be.
Your gallery is at https://chrissiehart.wordpress.com/gallery/ but the links behind the Gallery and Blog menu items are pointing you your homepage, https://chrissiehart.wordpress.com
You need to qualify one of your pages as posts page and add that page to the menu from Appearance > Menus screen.
I suggest you check this excellent post on Custom Menus that will help you fix your menu: https://dailypost.wordpress.com/2013/04/17/working-with-custom-menus/

Okay sorted! Thanks so much for the help. Is there anything you can tell me to help with my ‘Video’ page. I purchased the Encore theme so that I could create something similar to their video library page:
https://encoredemo.wordpress.com/videos/
I can’t aligned my videos anywhere except the left and the text will only go below and not above.
Thanks for the help! -
That’s cool.
Have you set the page template of videos page to Video Archive?

Videos page on Encore demo page seems to be a category page. All the videos seem to be video posts categorized as videos.
Your category is video-4. My best bet would be to change the category name from video-4 to videos. Then add your both videos as individual posts.
Sorry I can’t try this theme as it is a premium theme. So if my above suggestion did not work, I suggest you post your question to Encore theme specific forum here: https://premium-themes.forums.wordpress.com/forum/encore

Hi again, thanks for that. It’s weird because I changed it and it just reverts back to video-4 all the time.. And I keep have the same problem with the video layout. Haven’t heard anything from the other forum yet.
I have another issue. I’m new to blogging.. Is it possible to set up the page which I have called ‘Blog’ using the blog posts. I tried doing blog posts but I don’t know where those posts go!
Can you help? Thanks :) -
I am sorry about videos page. I am not sure how it works and it is not something I could test myself as it is a premium theme.
Reg. Blog posts page, you can create a page with any name and select it as the Posts page. It is explained in this support document: https://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/#optional-create-a-blog-page
WordPress will automatically display all your posts in the page you qualify as Posts page. Give it a go.

I’m having trouble editing the size and placement of my photos on my most recent blog post ‘Japan 2010-11’. I don’t know why it is different from the last post I did. I would like the photos to be smaller generally but can’t adjust them. Is there a way to edit a gallery after I make it? Or do I need to delete it and make a new one every time.. Thanks! :)

You can change the image sizes from Settings > Media > Image Sizes section. The size you specify there will be applied for thumbnail images everywhere on your blog, including in the gallery.
