   Hello WP Community!

   I am developing a simple WP based shop. I have pages list (as upper menu) and categories list (as lower menu intended for goods categories).

   I would like to post articles as blog on two pages "Новости" ('News') and "Статьи" ('Articles'). As far as I understood it is possible to select one page as blog in 'Reading' preferences however I do not know how I can handle to select both and be able to post new article to one of those pages.. Can anyone help with this??

   Thanks in advance!

   Hi!
   For this you could either use plugins (if you're not so firm with php)
   Query Posts and
   Shortcode any widget
   As described here.

   or write my own code.
   Make a new page template, use this code snippet as a starting point to develop. (Change cat=5 to your value).

   <?php
       $displayposts = new WP_Query();
       $displayposts->query('cat=5');
       while ($displayposts->have_posts()) : $displayposts->the_post();
   ?>
     <?php the_content('read more...'); ?>
     <?php edit_post_link('edit', '', ''); ?>
   
   <?php endwhile; ?>

   good luck

   Thanks Anja,

   I am trying to solve that issue with Query Posts + Template Tag Shortcodes. Initially when I got all the posts queried by post publish statuses it worked (however at the excerpt it was not shown images), now I am trying to query posts by tags and I can not make it working. Do you know what can be the reason?

   I f you need more details, I will provide them.

   Thank you very much!!
   Andrey
