  I’m trying to add my blog posts into certain pages i’ve created in my main menu. I’ve assigned a category to the post and moved the category under the specific page, but that shows the category as a sub menu – which I don’t want.

  For example, if I have a fashion post, I want it to go under my ‘What I’m Wearing’ page. So, I created a category called ‘What I’m Wearing’ and moved that category under my ‘What I’m Wearing’ page. But as I said this just creates a sub menu that I then have to click to see that post.

  Ideally I’d like any posts I create that are assigned to my ‘What I’m Wearing’ category to appear under my ‘What I’m Wearing’ page. Hopefully this makes sense. Basically I want my posts to go to a specific page without creating sub menus.

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

  Hi,

  What is the address (URL) of the site you are referring to?

  So, I created a category called ‘What I’m Wearing’ and moved that category under my ‘What I’m Wearing’ page.

  A category menu item (linked to a category page) could replace a static page menu item with the same title, but there’s no reason to have both of them in the menu, especially one under the other.

  I’m trying to add my blog posts into certain pages i’ve created in my main menu.

  No menu items are automatically added to a custom menu, other than any default ones that may be present on certain themes at the time of creating the site. So links to posts must be added manually. They are added as described in the Add menu items section of the Custom Menus support page.

  Once a post (a link to a post, that is) is added to the menu, then you may arrange it under another menu item as described in the Organize your menu and add sub-menus / drop-down menus section of the Custom Menus support page. It’s your choice whether to place it under a menu item that links to a static page or to a category page.

  Basically I want my posts to go to a specific page without creating sub menus.

  A dynamic category page will display the posts assigned to that category. A static page is not designed to automatically do that, though you could insert Display Posts Shortcode into a static page to make a customized category page.
