 * Is it possible to have a link on the homepage to posts that belong to a specific
   category and show those on a page for that?
 * I would like to put projects in different categories and link to them from the
   homepage so they open on the projects page..

 * or consider to create and use a custom menu:

 * all those created links should open a category archive page with posts of that
   particular category.

 * Thanks for you reply. Is there also a way to get the page name in the url?
 * I edited the category base but that only works if you have one page using categories.
 * I am using multiple pages that depend on categories I would somehow like to “
   link” to the pages.
 * So category news, well is a news item that should link to the news page.
    Project
   categories should open in the category page.
 * Don’t know if a solution like that is there for WordPress.
