Hello. I'm looking for a plugin of some sort, or some workaround on how to post news to a page on your WordPress blog? Exactly as you post news and it displays in a category, but I'd like to be able to post news to a page of mine. Is there any plugin like that or something that can link and display all the updates in a category on the page? For example, I have a page on my blog for World of Warcraft, Starcraft 2, etc. I want to post the relevant information for each as news.
Any help would be appreciated as I can't seem to find anything that enables me to do this.
There isn't a way to 'associate' Pages to categories in the admin. If you use categories on posts WordPress will automatically give you access to a display of all the posts in a particular category if you use something like the Category Widget.
You can also create a Page and use a plugin such as http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/list-category-posts/
Or the Pages article has the Page of Posts example where you can code it to say if this is Page X, display category Y posts.
Also if this is just an issue of putting both pages and categories in your navigation header see this:
