 * By default, my posts show up on amigausers.ie/listen. I would like to have a 
   certain category of post, ‘games’ show up on a separate blog page only at amigausers.
   ie/games.
 * How can I achieve this? I can code if I know where in the theme to modify.

 * The url
 * amigausers.ie/category/games
 * will display all posts from the category “games” on a page. The url can be added
   to your main menu as a “custom url” and then you will have a blog page for just
   that category of posts. You may also be wanting to NOT display the posts in the
   games category on your main blog page “listen”. This doesn’t accomplish that (
   the games posts will display along with all other posts on the main blog page),
   but if you only have a few categories, you could have another category “listen”
   and make sure that all your posts have listen OR games category – then you could
   change your podcast menu item to point to
    amigausers.ie/caterogy/listen
 * If you wanted to code something, here’s a link to some php functions that do 
   this

 * Oh, that’s a fantastic suggestion rickc123. It will show the posts I want on 
   a single page. Your solution for sort of ‘mock filtering’ out from the main posts
   using the same method sounds good.
 * I’ll look into the Powerpress plugin to see if it constrains me from doing that.
   Thanks so much!

 * I’ve made a start and with [http://amigausers.ie/category/podcast/](http://amigausers.ie/category/podcast/)
   only the episodes show. The only issue with this is that the text ”
    Category:
   Podcast” is printed on a line of it’s own on top. And about an inch is added 
   above that.
 * Any idea where I could make a php change or maybe add a css rule for this scenario?
   So close 🙂

 * If you have a place to insert “additional css” in your theme, or if you have 
   an additional css plugin installed, you can add the following to get rid of that“
   category: podcast” header
 * .page-header {
    display: none; }
