  Hi,

  It’s not clear what you intend to do. Do you want to move one post or all of the posts? There is no “Blog” item in your menu. Did you want to add one and have it, instead of the “Home” item in the menu, linked to the posts page?

  Hi,
  Yes i think you understand. That i mean i will not have my post in the home primary menu , i will have it in my blog primary menu. So i thinking how i can copy or move my post in the right place.

  First, your “Home” menu item links to your static front page, which happens to have the Showcase Page Template assigned. It doesn’t link to your posts page, which is evidently presently unassigned.

  You don’t have to move posts at all. The first step to take is to simply assign a page as your posts page. You already have a page titled “Blog,” https://travelphotographer76.wordpress.com/blog/. That’s good. You’ll want to add a link to it to the primary menu. You can add it to the secondary menu (black background) as well if you’d like to.

  Next, go to Customize > Static Front Page > Front page displays, and from the second menu labeled “Posts page” choose “Blog.” Then click on the “Save & Publish” button.

  However, if you do as I’ve described above, you will still have posts displayed on the “Home” page under the Recent Articles and More Articles sections, because that’s what the Showcase Template does, even though it’s not your blog or posts page. If you’d rather the static front page display no posts, then change the template of the page to one of the other template options. See the Template section of the Page Options support page for instructions.

  Regarding the Showcase Page Template, see the relevant section of the Oxygen theme guide.

  At Customize > Static Front Page, you may also assign a different page as your front page. It doesn’t have to be “Home.” For example, you could assign the “About” page as your front page. If you do keep “Home” as your static front page, and change the template to one of the other options than Showcase Page, then you may wish to create some content for the page, which may function as a welcome to the site.
