Posting recipes under a different post name?
-
So I have a custom menu with a category “recipes”. When I post a recipe I call the post something else, not the title of the recipe. But I want people to be able to see the names of the recipe posted when they click on “recipes”, not the title of the post. How can I do this?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

All titles on all posts we create are permalinked. When we create titles the rule of thumb is that titles ought to accurately reflect the contents of the post. If you are not following that protocol and your titles do not reflect “the names of the recipes” then I believe you are left with creating either sub-categories or tags that do reflect the “names of the recipes” and assigning those to the posts. Perhaps another Volunteer has a brighter idea but this is all I can come up with. http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/categories-vs-tags/

A custom menu allows you to display Categories in tabs along the horizontal navigation with drop-downs to sub-categories where normally only Pages tabs are displayed. If you wish you can also include Pages and custom links in your custom menu as well.
These are the how-to instructions:
1. You create a custom menu. http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/
2. You add the Categories you want to display and arrange them in the order you want.
3. Then you add and drop and drag the sub-categories below the appropriate Categories, and when you have everything arranged in the menu that you want you save the menu.
4. Go to the “theme location” module at upper left on the menu page. Select your custom menu name from the pull-down labeled “primary location.” Click the save button in that module.
5. Refresh your browser so that it isn’t possibly pulling a cached page, and view see your new menu with Parent pages and dropdowns to sub-pages.
