 * Is your news page meant to be a [a page of posts](http://codex.wordpress.org/Pages#A_Page_of_Posts)
   or is it just a static page at the moment?

 * The news page is meant to be the page of posts. Like it shows when you open [http://www.antonruuditerapi.no](http://www.antonruuditerapi.no).

 * No my index.php looks like this:
 *     ```
       <?php get_header(); ?>

 * Why have you posted the code of your theme’s index.php template file? Is your
   site currently using a static front page with the News page selected as the main
   posts page in Settings -> Reading?

 * No i tried that. But I can’t use news as frontpage and postspage.
 * I have three Pages:
 * Nyheter (news)
    Kontakt (contact) Presse (press).
 * The thing is my news-page is empty like it shows when you click on it.
    But if
   I delete that page I wont have it in my menu as I am using `<?php wp_list_pages('
   title_li='); ?>` to list my menu.

 * So my news page “page-9.php” has this code:
 *     ```
       <?php get_header(); ?>
       		<div id="main">
           		<div id="content">
       	<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
   
       		<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
   
       			<div id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
   
       				<div class="entry">
       					<h3><?php the_content(__('Les mer', 'Anton Ruud I Terapi')); ?></h3>

       					<p class="postmetadata">

 * So your news page is **not** your main posts page? If so, then you need to create
   a custom page template using code similar to the examples in the page that I 
   linked to above.

 * Something very similar yes but you’ll need to amend the query parameters/arguments
   to ensure that you’re pulling the posts that you want on that page.

 * I currently disable the custom permalinks settings, so now it displays my permalinks
   in the url.
 * So my news page is now: [http://www.antonruuditerapi.no/?page_id=4](http://www.antonruuditerapi.no/?page_id=4)
 * And I am working in page-4.php.
 * Is this right? Cause nothing changes when I put in the new code… Even tried to
   make it blank and nothing changes.
 * Sorry for these rookie questions. I really appreciate your help.

 * What posts do you want to show on the News page? All of your posts or only those
