   How can I move old posts to a new page. Example, I run a blog that lists sales and special deals. However, when these deals expire, I want to easily move them to be displayed on another page in my blog. How can I do this without having to copy and paste the post as a new post on that page?

   You have to be more specific than that (instead of annoying bumps!)

   What is that "page" you are talking about? A Page? We don't know how to display posts on a Page. (Pages are not for that...)

   You could assign a different category to the expired posts.

   Then make a page template that only loads posts from that particular category. Or simply use the yourblog.com/category/expired page.

   If you don't want those posts to stay in the main blog, use query_posts

   something like:

   query_posts("cat=-3") // 3 being the ID of the category you want to exclude

   Hope that helps

   Never listen to anybody that tells you to display posts on Pages :)
   Wrong!

   I suggested the category option but hey, if the guy asks for a page... why not! ;-)
