Problem with Posts page
-
I have just changed theme to Hatch to enable full-width-template for the single Posts page on my site, which displays videos (page is called Video Essays). When the Video Essays menu tab is clicked, it goes to a page with blank boxes that display post title links only when you hover over them. You have to click on a box to go to the relevant post.
This is cumbersome and unnecessary, but I cannot get rid of this transition page nor can I edit it (I’ve tried to add explanatory text without success). If I have to have this page, I would like to have the blank boxes show an image that relates to the post in question – but can’t see any way to do this. I would prefer not to have the transition page at all so that visitors go straight to the videos when they click on the Video Essays tab.Any advice appreciated!
Thanks.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hatch is a lightweight, bare-bones theme for photographers, illustrators, and visual artists. The way it’s designed to function is described here http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/hatch/
The live demo site is here > http://hatchdemo.wordpress.com/Please read this first Post vs. Page http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/
(1) There is only one page we can post to in any blog.
(2) The static pages http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/ we bloggers create do not automatically update.Only the dynamic pages like Archives, Categories and Tags created by the software when we publish a post will update automatically update with new posts.
By default the front page of the blog is the Page that displays all posts in your blog. You can create a static front page and have your published posts display on another page http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/ but doing that does not change what follows.
Though there is only one dynamic page in a blog for posts (not pages) http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/ and we cannot post to more than that one page, we can create the appearance that we have posted to more than one page.
This guide will walk you through how to create category pages for your blog, to display groupings of similar posts on pages other than your front page. http://en.support.wordpress.com/category-pages/
Create a custom menu

There are many common errors, misunderstandings and misconceptions when creating custom menus and there are some tweaks you can use to improve your custom menu as well.
