    Hi there

    I’m trying to add a blog post I made to a specific page on my blog. I can’t find any option where I can do that.

    Would you be able to help me?

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

    Hi –

    To display the posts on specific pages you have a few options:
    1. You can assign a category to a post(e.g survivor) and publish it. Add this category to your custom menu. All the posts which are assigned the category “survivor” will display on this category page in the menu.

    To set up category page: https://en.support.wordpress.com/category-pages/

    2. You can display posts from multiple categories or only specific posts on a page using Display Posts Shortcode

    Add the following snippet to your page on which you want to show a post

    [display-posts include_content="true" id="177" image_size="large"]
    This will only show the post with the id-177 on the page

    You can modify the arguments supplied to this shortcode by referring to the documentation above.

    id is the id of the post that you want to display on the page.
    To find this id, open your post and look at the URL in the address bar. The number there should be the id of your post.

    Let us know if this works for you!
