 * Hi, I’m very new to wordpress and blogging. I’m starting to post but I can’t 
   tell whether I am posting to home page or to the link after the home page. Please
   help!!!
 * I want to post a posting on the homepage, then have readers to click on that 
   post to see more info on the next page. Hope this is making sense.
 * Thanks

 * Although it does depend upon your chosen theme, that is exactly how WordPress
   normally works.

 * I want to understand when a post is going to appear on the homepage. Question:
   is the 1st post in a category always appear on homepage, and additional post 
   to same category appear on next page?
 * What if I want to post somewhere other than homepage?
 * The problem I had last night, was that I added a post with an image to a particular
   category. Then I added another post in the same category with another image, 
   however the second image kept replacing the 1st image I posted. The 2nd image
   was then on the homepage instead of the 1st image. I became disgusted and trashed
   all the posts.

 * Hey I think I may have answered my own question. Do I just use the “add-more-
   tag” to have reader continue to a another page to read additional postings to
   the homepage post?
 * Thanks

 * [@jjones](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jjones/): Don’t highjack another
   poster’s thread. This is a forum for self-hosted wordpress.org sites. If you 
   don’t have such a site, your question does not belong here.

 * All post appear on the home page(s) in date order – most recent first. Over time,
   posts will be pushed off page 1 of the home page and onto page 2 etc.

 * That sounds like a theme issue/feature.

 * No. WordPress creates the additional home pages automatically.

 * Thanks Esmi, for the responses. However, yesterday I inserted an image and then
   I inserted the more tag, added more images and the 1st image stayed on the homepage
   and all additional images were on the next page.
 * But today I’m doing a new post and the original problem has occurred. How do 
   I keep an image on the homepage until I want to move it somewhere else?
 * Thanks
 * I’m using wordpress “producer” theme.

 * Question: Could a <div> code help? I’m just learning codes, but I looked at post
   from last night and noticed that <div> was the 1st code. I then looked at today’s
   post that replaced the first image and the beginning code was <p>.

 * Not quite. Using the more tag restricts the display on the home page to just 
   the content above the tag. The full post is displayed on the **single post’s 
   page** – which is not the same as page 2 of the Home page.
 * > Could a <div> code help?
 * No. I’m not sure what the “original problem” is/was. all of the post on the home
   page will work the same way. Click on their titles or the Read more link and 
   you’ll get the full post.
