Posts listed specific pages
-
Could anyone please tell me how I publish a post under a specific page i.e if I write a review on a book, I want it to appear in the Book Review page and not on the Home/Landing page?
I am very new to WordPress and not very tech-minded so could answers be in laymen’s terms please!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Charlotte
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Pages are static and are for content that rarely changes. They sit outside of the blog structure and you cannot post to multiple pages in any blog. There is only one main page for posts in a blog and all posts will display on the main blog page. There is no way to exclude posts from the main posts (blog) page.
We organize our posts by assigning Categories to them. When we publish a post it automatically appears on the running page for posts and also on the Categories pages and Archives pages. Note: There must be one published post in each Category in order for there to be anything to display.
A custom menu allows you to display Categories with drop-downs to sub-categories in tabs along the horizontal navigation where normally only Pages tabs are displayed. If you wish you can also include Pages with drop-downs to sub-pages and/or custom links in your custom menu as well. You are in charge of what appears in a custom menu. You choose the order in which to display any and/or all the foregoing in your custom menu. You choose which to display and which to hide.
I believe these links will be helpful.

If I may ask one more question: If all posts appear on the Home page does that mean that this page will be never-ending, with visitors scrolling and scrolling down, or is their a way to limit this just on the Home page?
Thank you in advance.

The main page for posts does not have to be the front page of the blog. If you wish you can create a static front page.
The front page of the blog by default will display your posts (not pages) http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/ in reverse chronological order, with the most recently published post on top. If you do not want all the posts to show on the front page, then you can create a static front page “Welcome” for your site and a “Blog” page for posts.
Choice 1 static front page
Choice 2 running page for all posts on front page
If you choose a static front page then you have to create two pages as I said above. After you do that you go to > Settings > Reading http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/ and make the designation change and click “save changes”. -
Staff have been introducing “infinite scroll” to themes — a site wide change. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/to-infinity?replies=137
http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2012/06/12/to-infinity-and-beyond/Note that “disabling” infinite scroll (when you use footer widgets) simply changes it from loading automatically to loading via the “Load More Posts” tab, and you can’t disable that “Load More Posts” tab from appearing without the Custom Design upgrade.
