Two Blog pages?

    Hi all.

    The theme I am using has a heavily customised blog page as it’s front page, and for many reasons this can’t be changed. There is a small box on this page which actually shows 2 of the latest blog entries. I have experimented with Settings -> front page displays and if I change it to a static page every blog page looks like the front page!

    I have a separate page that I want to show all blog posts in. I am new to this, so explaining it like I’m 5 ( (C) Reddit! ) which widget or setting can I change on a standard page to make it show all categories of blog post. Ideally as shortened entries.

    Thanks.

    What theme are you using? Where did you download it from?

    Hi and thanks.

    Its a scouting theme called scouts4wordpress from

    http://www.iscout4wordpress.org.uk/themes/scouts/

    The last time I mentioned this theme on here I got a short note saying it’s not supported, go away! But it’s not really about the theme, the question is how, in ANY theme, do I add the posts to a page without playing with settings?

    Every Google search response tells me to go to settings -> reading and change the front page. This won’t work here. The way this theme is designed is a heavily customised index page designed is over the top of the blogs. I want blogs to fully show in the “Latest District News” page which is a standard page. I’ve tried intelliwidget, PHP with The Loop (Php is just printed on screen as text) and I’m stuck.

    And I can’t change the theme. 🙂

    Oh well, I’ll work on something else for a while to get my ,mind off it.

    Mike.
