  I have three tabs on my blog: Ponderings, Pearls, & Meet Judy.
  How do I post under only one specific tab?

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

  Hi there,

  By default, your blog posts will all appear on your home page here: http://pondersandpearls.wordpress.com/

  You can start writing blog posts from the new post page here: https://wordpress.com/post/

  If you’d rather have a regular page as your blog’s home page and have all of your blog posts appear on one of the other pages (Ponderings, Pearls, or Meet Judy) you can use this guide to set up a static front page: Front Page

  Please let me know if you have any questions about that. :)

  I would like Ponderings to be my front page, but I want to post to both “Ponderings” and “Pearls” pages. Is this possible?

  If you’re hoping to publish different posts to your “Ponderings” and “Pearls” pages, it won’t be possible to set “Ponderings” to be your front page. Let me see if I can explain why that’s the case:

  Right now, when you publish a blog post, that post will appear on your blog’s front page along with all of your other recent posts.

  If you want to have some of your posts appear on a specific page, like “Ponderings” or “Pearls,” you can set those up as category pages. That way, you can assign each post a category and it will appear on that category’s page. We have a guide for doing that here: Category Pages

  However, your category pages can’t be used as the front page of your blog. There are only two choices for the front page of the blog: You can have all of your latest blog posts appear there, or you can have a static page (a page with static content, as opposed to something like a category page). If you want your posts to appear on the “Ponderings” and “Pearls” pages and not have all of the posts appear on your front page, you can set up a static page and use that as the front page.

  I hope that helps explain your options, but please let me know if you’d like any more help with that. :)
