Writings seem to be on wrong page.

  • Unknown's avatar

    My main page writing is under my blog tab and my blog is on my main page. When I went in to write the one on the main page, I indicated it was a new blog. I did another ‘blog’ and it showed up on the main page also along with the 1st one that was suppose to be under the blog tab (so I would think) I wound up deleting that one as I can’t figure out what I’m suppose to do or if this is normal.

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

    Hi @cindylent!

    If I understood correctly, you want the content that appears now on your first page at: cindylent.wordpress.com to actually load when you click BLOG and the content that appears now under BLOG to actually be your first page, that’s correct?

    Yes that is, thank you.

    Every theme has a detailed theme description page and this one is at https://wordpress.com/themes/ixion
    / That’s where set up instructions for it are found. The live demo site is at https://ixiondemo.wordpress.com/

    This is a one or the other situation. You have two choices on any blog
    (1) All posts on the front page ie. the Home page. By default that is the URL of the site.

    (2) A static front page http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/ and all 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 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, then you can create a static front page called for example “Welcome” for your site and a “Blog” page for posts. Create your two pages first
    Front page:
    Posts page:
    http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/

    After you do that you go to > Dashboard > Settings > Reading and make the designation change and click “save changes”.
    http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/

    A static page (select below)
    Front page:
    Posts page:

    Go to http://NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/options-reading.php and make the required change.

    *Replace NAME_OF_BLOG in the URL above with the actual name of your blog.

    Front page displays
    Save changes
    __ Your latest posts
