• Hi!

    I’m trying to have my blog posts show up under “blog” on the main menu on my site. Not sure how to do it?

    Thanks,
    Reena

    Hi Reena – you’re nearly there.

    First, you need to create an empty static page, called Blog.

    Then assign your posts to the new Blog page you created in your Customizer’s Static Front Page section. Choose your new page under “Posts page” and then save your changes.

    Finally, add a link to this new Blog page in your custom menu and remove the existing single post that’s in your menu currently.

    If you help with any other issues, please post in the WordPress.com themes forum in the future:

    The forums where you’ve posted here are for folks running the WordPress software on their own hosting, not on WordPress.com Thanks!

    I am having trouble with the above and not quite sure what you mean

    “First, you need to create an empty static page, called Blog.

    Then assign your posts to the new Blog page you created in your Customizer’s Static Front Page section. Choose your new page under “Posts page” and then save your changes.”

    This is my first website build and I am struggling.

    Thanks

    Hi Susan,

    The first step, that Kathryn referred to, is to publish a new page entitled Blog.

    After you have published that page, navigate to Appearance > Customize and then select the Static Front Page option.

    Here, check the option next to “A static page” and select Blog from the “Posts page” dropdown menu.

    I was able to find a couple video tutorials that may help you with the process:

    If you have any further questions, please start a new thread on this forum and share a link to your site.

    It’s easier for us to keep track of different questions if they’re kept to separate threads and also prevents the original poster from receiving unnecessary email notifications.

    Thanks!
