   Basically what I need is the abillity to create a page linked to a certain category of posts, however I don't want these posts to occur multiple times I only want them to show up at its assigned page so that it's exclusive for that category.

   The reason is I'm running a community and I'm allowing my members to create their own blogs on top of my wordpress site, meaning they can post in a certain category, and this category will be assigned a page in the menu for example: user1's blog.

   So a page which certain categories shows up in exclusively and so that the posts wont be mixed up with the regular community news.

   My current setup:
   Home = static presentation page
   News = the standard page where currently all the news shows
   ?? Blog -> user1's blog ???

   Any suggestions is appreciated.

   You could try using this plugin to redirect from a Page link to a Category Archive: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/redirection/

   I'm not sure this is quite what you're after, but I used it to make all the posts from one category appear on the one page that could be accessed through the main menu. I made a new page (let's call it 'Frank') which appeared in the menu, then used the plugin to pull up all the posts under the category 'Frank' (ie the Category Archive page for 'Frank') when clicked on the menu.

   If you think this is what you're after I can explain it in detail - let me know.

   Oh, and the other thing you can do is go to Appearance -> Menus, then choose a Category to add to the menu (scroll down if you can't see it). This adds a menu item called 'Frank' which will then display all the posts in the category 'Frank'. (The same as above only neater and quicker!)
