Seperate post categories on different pages
-
Hello,
I want to seperate my blog articles on different pages.
So my home (page) should show only the posts from special categories. And other pages should only show only posts from other categories.
I want to use only one blog with one URL and not 2 seperate blogs, if this is possilbe.Is there any way to seperate the post categories on different pages?
Greetings
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Is there any way to seperate the post categories on different pages?
Yes, there is. You cannot post to pages. Pages are static and sit outside the blog structure. With wordpress, you use categories to organize posts into subjects and then you can add those categories to your navigation using a custom menu. Staff have provided help for those who want to structure their blog like a website. > http://en.support.wordpress.com/using-wordpress-to-create-a-website/
What’s critical is:
(1) a clear comprehension of the differences between pages and posts > http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/
(2) a clear comprehension of the fact that there is only one dynamic page in a blog for posts and we cannot post to more than that one page, but we can create the appearance that we have posted to more than one 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. http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus
Also note that if you do not want all the posts to show on the front page, then you can create (1) a static front page for your site, and also create (2) a “blog” page for your posts to display on, but that’s optional.

Pages you create are static and sit outside of the blog structure so you cannot put posts on pages. You also cannot exclude categories from the main blog (posts) page, but there is a way to achieve something similar to what you are asking for.
Create and publish a static front page for your site and then at settings > reading set that page as your “front” page.
Include the categories widget in the sidebar or alternately create a custom menu and include the categories in the top main navigation. You can even use a dropdown menu if you have a many categories
