Where are my posts?
-
Why is my post not showing up on the menu of my blog? How can my readers see it? I have a static front page, so I thought if I made a page named “posts” that they would show up there, but not true. Please help!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

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 come to read your latest post, and who are not likely to be happy with being compelled to click through the same static page with the same blah, blah, blah on it every time they visit the blog looking for the latest post.
However, if you do not want all the posts to show on the front page, and know that static front pages are traffic killers, then you can create a static front page called for example “Welcome” for your site and a “Blog” page for posts. To do that create two pages first http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/
After you do that you go to > Settings > Reading and make the designation change and click “save changes”.

Thanks for the info. I did not know that static front pages are traffic killers! I set it up that way so this looks more like a website than a blog; I’m not making daily (or even regular) posts anyhow. Other ideas for working with this?
