How to create a new page after default posts surpassed (7 posts)

    I have my default set to 10 posts per page. How is a new page automatically created after 10 posts are created?

    That default, or whatever you change it to, is for display only. Your blog will display only the last 10 posts. It has nothing to do with creating pages or posts.

    Right. So my question is how to create a new page after my default has been reached.

    As before from the Write Post page.

    Your blog will then display links to other pages at bottom. Check my blog (scroll to the end) to see what I mean.

    Refer to this support discussion for further details.

    Here is my blog: http://www.markmallett.com/wordpress/?cat=2

    I still do not understand how old posts appear on another page after the 10/page default is reached. That is, I continue to use Write Post, as you say. However, that will only server to delete, once again, the next oldest post from the visible page.

    Marc's reply does not say how to execute this; he only discusses the difference between a page and a post!

    If you are using the default template then the required code is already there.
    Otherwise you need to add the following at appropriate location in your template:
    <div class="navigation">
    <div class="alignleft"><?php next_posts_link('« Previous Entries') ?></div>
    <div class="alignright"><?php previous_posts_link('Next Entries »') ?></div>
    </div>
