    I have created a website with wordpress, because I have multiple things I’d like to share.
    writing, photography, i.e.
    I have a static homepage (which I’d like to keep that way).
    But everytime I post a blog, it’s linked to my homepage. Not showed, because it’s static, but nonetheless, it’s linked there. I’d like to link it to my second page (about doing good) or maybe even my third (about food and coffee).
    How do I get my posts on the right page?

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

    When we publish a post on WordPress software the software automatically creates the same entry in the Archives, and on the dynamic (automatically updating) Categories and Tags pages in accord with the Categories and Tags we assign to that post.

    So when we create custom menu and add the dynamic (automatically updating) category pages to it we create the appearance (not the reality) of posting to more than one page.

    You need to be aware that:

    1. There are differences between posts and pages described here
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/

    2. There are differences between static pages we bloggers create https://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/ that will not automatically update, and dynamic category pages created by the software when you publish a post which will automatically update https://en.support.wordpress.com/category-pages/.

    3. We organize posts by category assignment prior to publication. http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/categories/ and when we publish posts the dynamic category pages they automatically display on are determined by the categories we assign to them.

    So the process is:

    Assign Categories to your Posts. https://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/categories/
    Create a custom menu https://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/#1-create-a-custom-menu
    Add the dynamic category page links into the menu https://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/view-all/#adding-category-pages

    You have two choices on any blog
    (1) All posts on the front page.
    (2) A static front page and posts on a different page.

    By default the front page of your blog displays all published posts (not pages) in reverse chronological order, with the most recently published post on top. That is for the convenience of your returning visitors who will not be happy to have to click through an About page every time they visit your blog as they come to read your most recently published content. Creating that situation can make some visitors annoyed – so annoyed that they stop following your blog.

    However, if you do not want all the posts to show on the front page, then you can create a static front page called for example “Welcome” for your site and a “Blog” page for all published posts (not pages) to display on in reverse chronological order, with the most recently published post on top.

    To do that create two pages first http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/

    After you do that you go to > Settings > Reading, make the page designation changes for each of the two pages you created, and then click “save changes”.
    A static page (select below)
    Front page:
    Posts page:
